MySQL Connector/ODBC 5.2.6 has been released
Dear MySQL users,
MySQL Connector/ODBC 5.2.6, a new version of the ODBC driver for the MySQL database management system, has been released.
The available downloads include both a Unicode driver and an ANSI driver based on the same modern codebase. Please select driver type you need based on the type of your application - Unicode or ANSI. Server-side prepared statements are enabled by default. It is suitable for use with any MySQL version since 4.1 (It will not work with 4.0 or earlier releases.)
The release is now available in source and binary form for a number of platforms from our download pages at
=============================================================================Changes in MySQL Connector/ODBC 5.2.6
Functionality Added or Changed
* Added a lock in the ENV structure against simultaneous accesses to an environment handle's connection list, in order to avoid memory access issues that might occur when multiple threads share the same environment handle. (Bug #17240611, Bug #69864)
Bugs Fixed
* Memory leaks occurred in SQLPrepare() and SQLExecDirect() when SQLBindParamater was used on the SQL statements. This fix frees previous results of mysql_stmt_result_metadata() in order to prevent the memory leaks. (Bug #17400483, Bug #70113)
* The exit condition for a for loop in stringutil.c is changed to avoid a possible out-of-bounds error and the associated reports by Valgrind. (Bug #17397596, Bug #64105)
* Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 crashed when reading rows from any table in Server Explorer with connections to DSNs made by Connector/ODBC. (Bug #17304031, Bug #69950)
* When SQL TIME data was converted to the C data type of TIMESTAMP, if the value of the hour field is greater than 24, the date fields did not get set to the current date and the fraction field for seconds did not get set to zero as required by the ODBC specifications. (Bug #17016839, Bug #69545)
* When trying to create a linked server in Micrsoft SQL Server 2008 to a MySQL server set up with Connector/ODBC as a DSN, the Microsoft SQL Server (if it is a 64-bit version) crashed or the linked server suffered a catastrophic failure (if a 32-bit version of the Microsoft SQL Server is used). (Bug #16604346, Bug #63386)
* When reading TIME column data using the SQLGetData method into the SQL_C_TYPE_TIME datatype, errors occured when the time string contained more than 6-digits (e.g., 120:53:44). (Bug #16176981, Bug #67793)
* When called after SQLPrepare, the funciton SQLMoreResults returned SQL_ERROR, instead of SQL_NO_DATA as required by the ODBC specification. (Bug #16101282, Bug #67920)
* Connector/ODBC used the ";" character instead of a null byte ("\0") to terminate keyword-value pairs in attribute strings. (Bug #15940689, Bug #66548)
* When using the Unicode-enabled version of the Connector/ODBC driver to connect to any MySQL server of version 5.5.2 or older, all statements failed with the error message .Server does not support 4-byte encoded UTF8 characters.. (Bug #14838690, Bug #67428)
* The configured values of a DSN's parameters overrode the values provided through the connection string, instead of the other way round. (Bug #11760574, Bug #52996)
Built against the MySQL server 5.6.14 client library.
