* Separate -D (date only) and -T (date/time) format options in mdb-export and mdb-json
* New public mdb_set_shortdate_fmt() function in libmdb
* New private(ish) mdb_col_is_shortdate() function
I'm calling it "shortdate" in order to preserve the existing API.
See https://github.com/mdbtools/mdbtools/issues/12
This should fix long-standing complaints about the default bind size
without causing undue memory inflation in existing applications.
Could make this adjustable on the command line later.
Supersedes:
https://github.com/mdbtools/mdbtools/pull/137
* Replace backend_is_init (formerly is_init) with relationships_table
* Remove deprecated functions that used static variables
* Move static "bound" variable to MdbHandle as relationships_values
Attempt to make the backend handling logic thread-safe. This removes the
last MDB_CONSTRUCTOR. Also get rid of some JAVA junk and make the
remaining static variables in backend.c constant. Finally remove some
obsolete fields from MdbFile.
Add a shim implementing half-assed versions of most of the GLib
functions used by MDB Tools. If GLib is detected at compile-time,
use it, otherwise use the shim.
This work is not complete, as the option-parsing code is not yet
implemented - so most of the command-line tools crash.
If a host project has -Wstrict-prototypes enabled, the mdbtools header
results in warnings. Turn on -Wstrict-prototypes for the whole project
so that these never occur again.
__attribute__ does not exist in Visual Studio. Therefore replaced wherever it appeared with a macro:
Redefines MDB_DEPRECATED to support Visual Studio
Define a Constructor MACRO so that __attribute__((constructor/destructor)) behavior is achieved in Visual Studio.
Just using generate_table_schema through mdb_print_schema deletes the purpose of a very good tool. generate_table_schemas is a rewrite of generate_table_schema but sends the data to a char* instead of FILE*. There is NO fmemopen() or similar in Visual Studio, so there is NO way to access memory through a FILE* except for first writing to the disk and then reading from the disk in memory.
I cannot suggest how to handle the case when td == 0 for the dates. The databases I work with often have just 00:00:00 in the DateTime column which is not consistent with the rest of the column either, but I have to deal with it somehow.
Leaving void* where char* is needed as a function parameter returns a compilation error in Visual Studio.
These functions now use the __attribute__((constructor)) & destructor.
Old names were keep for compatibility
Also put __attribute__((deprecated)) in mdbtools.h for all deprecated
functions.
