Hi all, Just a heads up to people working on Base documentation.
- database reports can now be designed with positioning accuracy to 1Oths of a millimeter. The code has been changed to force a round-up to the nearest 10th of millimeter in any given X,Y coordinate of a control ; - hsqldb embedded databases will now systematically be subjected to a "checkpoint" and/or "checkpoint defrag" on saving of the database file. The aim with this change is to force hsqldb to optimize the size of the db, especially where frequent deletions of data sets are carried out. With a bit of luck, it might actually bring long-term benefits like increased data security and stability (he says, crossing fingers). There may well be a performance hit when closing the ODB file, especially on big databases, but the developer who implemented this change feels that people who want to manipulate large datasets should be using something a bit more appropriate than an embedded hsqldb... There has been some other stuff recently, most noticeably, bug fixes, but I haven't been following all of that.
