**Release date:** 4 Dec 2017

This is a [***Stable***](/docs/release-notes/community-server/about/release-criteria.md) ***(GA)*** release of the MariaDB\
Connector/C, formerly known as MariaDB Client Library for C.

**For a description of this library see the**[**MariaDB Connector/C**](/docs/connectors/mariadb-connector-c.md) **page.**

## Notable Bug Fixes

* [CONC-282](https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/CONC-282): Connector/C now provides additional information on the package version: `mariadb_config --cc_version` lists the package version. Besides `MARIADB_PACKAGE_VERSION`, the numeric representation `MARIADB_PACKAGE_VERSION_ID` can now be used within preprocessor directives.
* [CONC-281](https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/CONC-281): `mysql_stmt_fetch_column` doesn't work with prior call to `mysql_stmt_store_result`
* OpenSSL fixes:
  * When negotiating TLS protocol during handshake, use server preferences instead of client preferences. This will allow using TLSv12 (OpenSSL server) and/or TLSv1.1 (Yassl server).
  * Don't check server ca unless verification flag was set. This will allow Connector/C to establish a tls/ssl connection without certificates.

For a list of changes made in this release, with links to detailed information on each push, see the [changelog](/docs/release-notes/connectors/c/changelogs/2.3/2.3.4.md).
