MariaDB C++ Connector 1.1.4 now available

Posted on June 7, 2024 by Daniel Bartholomew

MariaDB is pleased to announce the immediate availability of the MariaDB Connector/C++ 1.1.4 release.

Release Notes

MariaDB Connector/C++ 1.1.4 is a Stable (GA) release.

Notable changes in this release include:

The false or nullptr value used for boolean connection property initialization is now treated as false. It used to end up as true because SQLString makes an empty string out of nullptr, which is rendered true for the connection property. This fix introduced a 3rd state for the SQLString, NULL, and makes such a string as a value option to be treated as false. However, the NULL string will still have an empty string value in different string operations. Setting or changing its value does not make the string NULL. This “Nulliness” is still intended mainly for the driver’s internal use and is designed to not change anything for applications. Though when exposed to application comparison operators, such as == and !=, they will consider the NULL state of the SQLString object if compared with nullptr
