B.7.2.4. Changes in MySQL Connector/NET 6.2.0 (21st October 2009 alpha)

The first alpha release of 6.2.

Bugs fixed:

  • When using a BINARY(16) column to represent a GUID and having specified “old guids = true” in the connection string, the values were returned correctly until a null value was encountered in that field. After the null value was encountered a format exception was thrown with the following message: 

    Guid should contain 32 digits with 4 dashes (xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx).

    (Bug#47928)

  • The Session Provider created invalid “session expires” on a random basis.

    This was due to the fact that the Session Provider was incorrectly reading from the root web.config, rather than from the application specific web.config. (Bug#47815)

  • When loading the MySQLClient-mono.sln file included with the Connector/NET source into Mono Develop, the following error occurred: 

    /home/tbedford/connector-net-src/6.1/MySQLClient-mono.sln(22):
Unsupported or unrecognized project:
'/home/tbedford/connector-net-src/6.1/Installer/Installer.wixproj'

    If the file was modified to remove this problem, then attempting to build the solution generated the following error: 

    /home/tbedford/connector-net-src/6.1/MySql.Data/Provider/Source/Connection.cs(280,46):
error CS0115: `MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlConnection.DbProviderFactory' is marked as an
override but no suitable property found to override

    (Bug#47048)
