I would like to announce the release of version 2.5.1 of KirbyBase, a small, pure-Ruby database management system that stores it's data in plain-text files.
You can download it here:
Windows: http://www.netpromi.com/files/KirbyBase_Ruby_2.5.1.zip
Linux/Unix: http://www.netpromi.com/files/KirbyBase_Ruby_2.5.1.tar.gz
Gem: http://www.netpromi.com/files/KirbyBase-2.5.1.gem
This is a mainly a bug-fix release:
* Fixed a bug that had broken encrypted tables.
* Changed KBTable#pack method so that it raises an error if trying to execute when connect_type==:client.
* Fixed a bug where it was possible to insert records missing a required field if using a hash. Thanks to Adam Shelly for this.
* Fixed a bug that occurred when you tried to update records using a block and you tried to reference a field in the current record inside the block. Much thanks to Assaph Mehr for reporting this.
* Fixed a bug that allowed you to have duplicate column names. Thanks to Assaph Mehr for spotting this.
* Changed the way KBTable#set works with memo/blob fields.
* Started creating unit tests.
* Changed the KBTable#clear method to return number of records deleted. Thanks to Assaph Mehr for this enhancement.
* Moved #build_header_string from KBEngine class to KirbyBase class.
* Added KirbyBase::VERSION constant.
* Cleaned up the manual a bit. Thanks to Rich Morin for feedback.
I would like to thank all of the people who provided bug fixes, suggestions, and ideas for version 2.5.1.
Enjoy!
