Dear MySQL users, MySQL Connector/Net 6.9.5 is a maintenance release for the 6.9.x series of the .NET driver for MySQL. It can be used for production environments.
It is appropriate for use with MySQL server versions 5.5-5.7. It is now available in source and binary form from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/net/#downloadsandmirrorsites (note that not all mirror sites may be up to date at this point-if you can't find this version on some mirror, please try again later or choose another download site.) Changes in MySQL Connector/Net 6.9.5 (2014-11-12) Bugs Fixed * Generated code that matched against the start of a VARCHAR/CHAR column now correctly uses "LIKE" instead of location functions for the LINQ to Entity operators "StartsWith", "Contains", and "EndsWith". Locate functions do not make use of indexes placed on the VARCHAR/CHAR columns, which caused significant performance degradation. (Bug #19783747, Bug #19680236, Bug #19944400, Bug #72058) * The web providers registration required the removal of the ".v20" suffix from the type in the web providers section in machine.config. (Bug #19715398, Bug #74080) * Generated SQL was missing several clauses, such as OrderBy, GroupBy, and Skip), in cases that involved the "let" keyword, or in other scenarios that were translated into a DbApplyExpression. (Bug #19698010, Bug #19783760, Bug #19944549, Bug #73549) * LINQ to Entities queries failed for the cases that contained a predicate using IList.Contains with an argument of "DbCastExpression, DbConstantExpression, DbParameterReferenceExpression". (Bug #19690370, Bug #19783755, Bug #19944528, Bug #73643) * A SELECT query that had a nullable DATETIME field in a child .Any() clause with an .OrderBy() would fail and emit a NotImplementedException exception. (Bug #19681723, Bug #19795751, Bug #70722) * The query optimization routine would return statements with invalid table aliases when nested queries were being optimized. This would throw an "Unknown column" exception. (Bug #19681348, Bug #19934324, Bug #72004) * A memory leak was fixed. (Bug #19467233, Bug #19474480, Bug #19474510, Bug #73122) * The CreateUser function did not trim whitespace before storing values into the database, while MembershipUser did return trimmed values. The trimming is now performed before the data is stored. (Bug #19459461, Bug #73411) * "LINQ to Entities" queries that used Views with the Take operator were not correctly generated. This problem affected EF "Database First" scenarios.
