Microsoft Drivers 4.0 for PHP Linux for SQL Server Released!

  • 發行項

Dear PHP Community,

We are pleased to announce the release of the Microsoft PHP Linux Driver 4.0 for SQL Server! The new driver enables access to SQL Server 2008+, Azure SQL Database and Azure SQL DW from any PHP 7 application on Linux. Going forward, we will continue to fix bugs and ship regular updates to the GitHub repository and PECL.

The major highlights of this release include: support for SQL Server 2016, PHP7 and PHP7.1, Linux (Ubuntu 15.04, Ubuntu 16.04, and RedHat 7.2), PECL packages, bug fixes, and better test coverage.

Here is a summary of the improvements since our previous release

Added

  • Added SQLSRV_ATTR_FETCHES_NUMERIC_TYPE attribute support in PDO_SQLSRV driver.SQLSRV_ATTR_FETCHES_NUMERIC_TYPE connection attribute flag handles numeric fetches from columns with numeric Sql types (only bit, integer, smallint, tinyint, float and real). Note for exceptions:
    • When connection option flag ATTR_STRINGIFY_FETCHES is on, even when SQLSRV_ATTR_FETCHES_NUMERIC_TYPE is on, the return value will still be string.
    • When the returned PDO type in bind column is PDO_PARAM_INT, the return value from a integer column will be int even if SQLSRV_ATTR_FETCHES_NUMERIC_TYPE is off.
  • Added Unicode column name support (issue #138).

Fixed

  • Fixed issue with SQLSRV_ATTR_FETCHES_NUMERIC_TYPE when column return type is set on statement (issue #173).
  • Fixed precision issues with double data types when using buffered queries with the PDO_SQLSRV driver.
  • Fixed issue with buffered cursor in PDO_SQLSRV driver when CharacterSet is UTF-8 (issue #192).
  • Fixed segmentation fault in error cases when error message is returned with emulate prepare attribute is set to true in PDO_SQLSRV driver.
  • Fixed issue with empty output parameters on stored procedure (issue #182).
  • Fixed memory leaks in buffered queries.

Limitations & Known issues

  • This release contains the PHP 7 port of the SQLSRV and PDO_SQLSRV drivers on Linux, and does not provide backwards compatibility with PHP 5.
  • Connection using named instances using '\' is not supported.
  • Local encodings other than UTF-8 are not supported, and SQLSRV_ENC_CHAR only supports ASCII characters with ASCII code of 0 to 127.
  • Connection pooling in PDO_SQLSRV is not supported.
  • Binary column binding with emulate prepare (issue#140)

Future Plans

Going forward we plan on improving the current Linux port, expand SQL 16 Feature Support (example: Always Encrypted), build verification/fundamental tests, and fix bug fixes reported on GitHub
