[ANNOUNCEMENT] DBA-0.16 (beta) Released.

The new PEAR package DBA-0.16 (beta) has been released at http://pear.php.net/. Release notes ------------- More API changes to come, but so far, they're minimal. I'm getting things cleaned up so that the upcoming SQL frontend will fit nicely. * Schema format has changed; use DBA_* constants rather than strings to organize meta data. See example schemas. * Dropped support for autodecrement; initialize autoincrement by supplying a default value rather than using the keyword 'init' * Fixed-length char type support added, varchar preallocates space in DBA driver if size is supplied * Fixed some problems with inserting on tables when no primary key was specified * Added DBA_Toolbox.php to hold utility functions that are not necessary for working with DBA, just useful. Package Info ------------- Implements a DBM-style database using either PHP's DBA functions or a simple DBM class written in PHP. Also provides a relational database system with support for selects, joins, sorts, projects, multiple tables, type checking, autoincrements and more.
