DBD::SQLite 1.73_01 (with SQLite 3.42.0) is a release candidate for the next stable DBD::SQLite. This release is mainly to upgrade the bundled SQLite library.

I'll wait for about a month and release 1.74 in the middel of September if there's no blocker nor request to wait for more. Thank you for your patience.

Four years have passed since the last Perl Toolchain Summit (PTS) in Marlow. I planned to continue working on PAUSE's web UI, but I didn't exactly remember what to do. So the first thing I did at home before the PTS was to read through the PAUSE issues and do some triage. I also resumed a virtual machine that held PAUSE clones I had worked on. There I found an untracked docker-compose.yml. It was incomplete. I must have given it up because I already had a working environment. However, I remembered a few people wanted an easier way to install PAUSE. It would be helpful if they could run PAUSE…

DBD::SQLite 1.71_07 (with SQLite 3.39.4) is a release candidate for the next stable DBD::SQLite. This release is mainly to address a security hole found in SQLite, plus a few performance issues for perl built with -DDEBUGGING. See Changes for other fixes and changes.

This time I'll wait for about a week and release 1.72 at the beginning of November if there's no blocker nor request to wait for more. Thank you for your patience.

DBD::SQLite 1.67_07 (with SQLite 3.36.0) is a release candidate for the next stable DBD::SQLite. This release has a notable change to improve how to deal with Unicode/Latin-1 characters, contributed by Felipe Gasper. If you write a new application, it is recommended to use one of the newly added modes like this:

use DBI;
use DBD::SQLite::Constants qw(:dbd_sqlite_string_mode);

my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:SQLite:$dbname", "", "", {
    sqlite_string_mode => DBD_SQLITE_STRING_MODE_UNICODE_FALLBACK,
    # or 
    # sqlite_string_mode => DBD_SQLITE_STRING_MODE_BYTES,
    ...
});…

DBD::SQLite 1.65_03 (with SQLite 3.32.3) is a release candidate for the next stable DBD::SQLite. There are no big changes, maybe except for the ncrease of the default upper bound on the number of parameters from 999 to 32766 (since SQLite 3.32).

I'll wait for about a month as always, and release 1.66 at the end of August if there's no blocker nor request to wait for more. Thank you for your patience.
