Changes for version 1.57_00 - 2013-02-07

  • BUG FIXES
    • fix RT46628 - bind_param_inout ORA_RSET causes MSWin32 access violation and RT82663 - Errors if a returned SYS_REFCURSOR is not opened (Martin J. Evans)
      • -Fix RT82663. If a procedure/function returns a SYS_REFCURSOR which was never opened DBD::Oracle magics a DBI statement handle into existence and attempts to describe it (which fails). This change examines a returned SYS_REFCURSOR and if it it is initialised but not executed does not create a DBI statement handle and returns undef instead. So now if you have a procedure/function which returns a SYS_REFCURSOR and never open it you'll get undef back instead of a useless statement handle. Extended 50cursor.t test to check the above fix.
  • DOCUMENTATION
    • Update Lion instructions for 64-bit Instant Client. (GH#37, patch by theory)
