2011-03-XX Version 3.9.0 Vincent Rogier vince.rogier@ocilib.net
 
    * Added support Oracle XA
 
      - Oracle XA intregration in OCLIB is transparent by using OCI_ConnectionCreate() and requires just :
 
         - an XA db name for parameter "db"
         - an extra flag OCI_SESSION_XA for parameter "mode"
         - no user or password
 
      - See the OCI_ConnnectionCreate() documentation for the XA open string needed by OCILIB to pass to the TMP 
 
    * Added support for statement cache
 
      - Statement cache is now automatically enabled when using an Oracle client >= 9.2
      - Added statement cache size customization when using an Oracle client >= 10.1 :
 
        - Added OCI_SetStatementCacheSize()
        - Added OCI_GetStatementCacheSize()
        - Added OCI_PoolSetStatementCacheSize()
        - Added OCI_PoolGetStatementCacheSize()
 
    * Added support for TAF (Transparent Application Failover) and HA (High Availability) 
 
      - The following handler has been added when using an Oracle client >= 10.2
 
        - Added OCI_IsTAFCapable()
        - Added OCI_SetTAFHandler()
        - Added OCI_SetHAHandler()
 
    * Added support for Connection attributes introduced in Oracle 10gR2
 
      - Added OCI_GetDDBName()
      - Added OCI_GetInstanceName()
      - Added OCI_GetServiceName()
      - Added OCI_GetServerName()
      - Added OCI_GetDomainName()
      - Added OCI_GetInstanceStartTime()
 
    * Improved bind tuning. Now it is possible to set the bind direction mode (in, out, in/out) for better performances
 
      - Added OCI_BindSetDirection()
      - Added OCI_BindGetDirection()
 
    * Miscellaneous new calls :
 
      -  Added OCI_Describe() to enable the retrieving of an OCI_Resultset object for "select" statement without executing the SQL
 
    * Miscellaneous changes :
 
      - Re-enforced checks on OCI_Statement handle related methods that checks the statement state (prepared, executed, parsed,...) that now can throw more exceptions
      - Manual update of source code formatted with Uncrustify (wrong indentation of preprocessor directives)
 
    * Miscellaneous fixes :
 
      - Fixed OCI_ImmediateFmt() : the method returned FALSE even on success
      - Fixed 11Gr2 compile detection    
      - Fixed OCI_PoolGetConnection() : OCILIB tried to set the driver name attribute (appeared in 10gR2) on the session that is not allowed in 11gR2
      - Fixed OCI_SetFormatDate() : fixed macros parameters declaration
      - Fixed OCI_GetColumnNullable() returned value
      - Fixed OCI_Parse() wrong internal mode
      - Fixed OCI_ConnectionCreate() : unfreed handles not freed if connection failed
      - Fixed OCI_SetPrefetchSize(), OCI_SetPrefetchMemory() : the given value was not really passed to Oracle
      - Fixed OCI_TypeInfoGet() called internally for fetch using object from different schema
      - Fixed OCI_StringGetFromAttrHandle() allocation of insufficient buffer in Unicode mode
      - Fixed OCI_ObjectSetxxx() could return true if attribute not found
      - Fixed OCI_Parse() : the method was internally doing a describe operation instead of just a parse (which gave same results from an end user view)
