Objet: Announcement: New Oct2014 Feature release of MonetDB suite
The MonetDB team at CWI/MonetDB BV is pleased to announce the
Oct2014 feature release of the MonetDB suite of programs.
More information about MonetDB can be found on our website at
<http://www.monetdb.org/>.
For details on this release, please see the release notes at
<http://www.monetdb.org/Downloads/ReleaseNotes>.
As usual, the download location is <http://dev.monetdb.org/downloads/>.
Important consideration when upgrading to this release. In this release
we have fixed bug 3474. This bug made it possible that there were
duplicates despite there being a unique or primary key constraint
present. This could only happen for multi-column constraints. MonetDB
maintains an internal column containing a hash for multi-column
constraints, and there was a bug in the maintenance code of this
column. During an upgrade, this column needs to be recreated. This is
done by dropping and adding back the constraints. If there are no
duplicates, adding back the constrains should work without problem, but
if there are duplicates, adding the constraints will fail. There is
unfortunately no easy way to tell the user, so after having made the
first connection to the server (when the upgrade happens), check the
merovingian log (if you use merovingian -- also known as monetdbd) or
the server output window (if you don't use merovingian).
Jaql support is removed. The experimental code for Jaql support has
been removed. If you have RPM or DEB packages for Jaql installed from
an earlier version (MonetDB-jaql and monetdb5_jaql respectively), you
will need to uninstall them before the upgrade.
Known issue when upgrading old versions. We have noticed that upgrading
directly from a version older than the Jan2014 release gave an error.
Upgrading to Jan2014 first and then on to Oct2014 should work.
Backup. As always, make a backup of your databases before upgrading.
Oct 2014 feature release
MonetDB5 Server
* Removed algebra.materialize.
* Removed algebra.kunique and algebra.tunique. They were subsumed by
algebra.subunique.
* Remove algebra.antiuselect and algebra.thetauselect. They were
subsumed by algebra.subselect.
* Removed algebra.topN and its imlementation BATtopN. The function
was not used.
* Removed aggr.histogram and its implementation BAThistogram. The
function was not used, and did not produce output in the "headless"
(i.e. dense-headed) format. Histograms can be created as a
by-product of group.subgroup.
Build Environment
* Jacqueline, the MonetDB/JAQL frontend, has been removed. The
frontend never grew beyond being experimental, and there is no
interest anymore to maintain the code.
Merovingian
* monetdb create: add -p flag to set monetdb user password on
creation, and therefore allow creating the database in unlocked
state
mapilib
* Changed mapi_timeout argument from seconds to milliseconds.
stream
* Changed mnstr_settimeout function so that the specified timeout is
now in milliseconds (used to be seconds), and that it also needs an
extra argument specifying a callback function (no arguments, int
result) that should return TRUE if the timeout should cause the
function to abort or continue what it was doing.
MonetDB Common
* Added "multifarm" capability. It is now possible to separate
persistent and transient BATs into different directories
(presumably on different disks). This can be done by using the
--dbextra option of mserver5 (see the man page).
SQL
* Added PostgreSQL compatible string TRIM, LTRIM, RTRIM, LPAD and
RPAD functions
* Stop support for upgrading directly from a database created with a
server from the Oct2012 release or older. You can upgrade via the
Feb2013 or Jan2014 release.
