CHANGES.txt

1.4.0 - 2012/10/19
 * Update for recent CQL3 protocol changes (CASSANDRA-4734)
 * Open the provided transport if it isn't already
 * Update thrift definitions (19.34.0 -> 19.35.0)

1.3.0 - 2012/10/03
 * Support passing transport instance to cql.connect()
 * Update thrift definitions (19.28.0 -> 19.34.0)
 * Support for callbacks on native-proto events
 * Support snappy compression if installed
 * Set initial keyspace after connection has been finalized

1.2.0 - 2012/09/12
 * Changes to SchemaDecoder interface- now decodes one value or column
   metadata instance at a time
 * Beta support for Cassandra's thriftless binary protocol- thrift is
   wholly unneeded if you pass native=True to cql.connect(). Everything
   should work exactly the same except for a different call is made to
   get metadata from the SchemaDecoder, in case you have a custom one.
 * Support for inet CQL type
 * Support for parsing and processing data of type ReversedType(whatever)

1.1.0 - 2012/08/30
 * Support for CQL3 collections
 * Unified type handling
 * Add .column_types attribute to Cursor objects, which stores a list
   of CassandraType objects corresponding to the types of the data
   from .fetchone(). Use hasattr(cursor, 'supports_column_types') to
   tell whether you're using a version of this library with that support.

1.0.10 - 2012/03/26
 * Expose column name storage types
 * Fix terrible performance issue for large CQL queries
 * Skip CQL3 tests when not supported by Cassandra backend
 * Fix error message given on unexpected CqlResultType

1.0.9 - 2012/02/15
 * allow for user-definable behavior on decode errors
 * support for prepared statements
 * add marshalling capability
 * Add CQL version support (and thrift files recompile for thrift 7)

1.0.8 - 2012/01/24
 * Fix handling of comment-like markers inside CQL string literals
   (since comments must be stripped out to achieve proper recognition
   of named parameters)

1.0.7 - 2011/12/27
 * Comply with ASF licensing requirements
 * Fixed unit test for TRUNCATE
 * Improve recognition of substitution parameters (":foo")
 * Fix some unmarshallers when used under python2.4
