Dear MySQL Users,
MySQL Connector/NET 6.7.5, a new version of the all-managed .NET driver for MySQL has been released. This is a Maintenance release and is feature complete. It is recommended for production environments. It is appropriate for use with MySQL server versions 5.0-5.7.
It is now available in source and binary form from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/net/#downloads and mirror sites (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.)
Also Nuget packages are available:
http://www.nuget.org/packages/MySql.Data/6.7.5
http://www.nuget.org/packages/MySql.Data.Entity/6.7.5
http://www.nuget.org/packages/MySql.Web/6.7.5
Changes in MySQL Connector/Net 6.7.5 (2014-04-04)
Bugs Fixed
* Entity Framework threw a NullReferenceException on insertion
of a record into tables that had an auto-increment, unsigned,
bigint primary key. (Bug #18189217, Bug #71242)
* "MaximumPoolSize" and "MinimumPoolSize" were not recognized as
valid connection string options. (Bug #18182246)
* The MySQL parser did not recognize the full string literal
syntax of [_charset_name]'string' [COLLATE collation_name] as
supported by the MySQL Server. This fix makes Connector/Net
and MySQL for Visual Studio recognize the string literal
syntax as specified in the Character String Literal Character
Set and Collation
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/charset-literal.html)
section of the MySQL Server manual. (Bug #18169145)
* In Visual Studio, Connector/Net did not read the millisecond
portion of a time value for a field of type TIME(3). (Bug
#18111085)
* When Connector/Net's SQL generator emitted code for the LINQ
Union() or Concat() operator, parentheses were not applied
around the individual SELECT statements. That could cause a
change of meaning for the query when a Take() operator (thus a
LIMIT clause in the SQL code) was applied to the last SELECT
statement. With this fix, parentheses were put around
individual SELECT statements, so that the LIMIT clause will
not be applied to the entire result of the UNION operation.
(Bug #18049691, Bug #70828)
* During migrations with ASP.NET Identity 1.0 in Visual Studio,
the code generator did not generate the indexes and foreign
keys in the Up() class. (Bug #18049272, Bug #71287)
* Connector/Net did not add the AUTO_INCREMENT property to a
primary key column of type BIGINT when creating a model in
Entity Framework. (Bug #17924407, Bug #17937401, Bug #70602)
* Millisecond values written to a TIME(6)-typed field of a
database were wrongly serialized by Connector/Net. (Bug
#17924388, Bug #70686)
* The RenameColumn operation in an Entity Framework migration
threw an "Unknown column 'no' in the 'field list'" error when
Update-Database was applied. (Bug #17959787, Bug #71102)
* A MySQL-session-state-enabled web application threw exceptions
for referencing the wrong table name my_aspnet_Sessions
(instead of the correct name my_aspnet_sessions). This was due
to the incorrect case handling of the SQL queries for
MySqlSessionStateStore. (Bug #17960855, Bug #69652)
* The value for the Keepalive option in the connection string
was interpreted by Connector/Net to be in milliseconds. This
fix makes it to be interpreted as number of seconds, as
specified in the documentation. (Bug #17981275, Bug #69484)
* When using the Code First approach in Entity Framework 5,
automatic migrations failed with the use of foreign keys. (Bug
#17929549)
* Connector/Net threw a NullReferenceException when trying to
save an entity into a table with a tinyint or bigint
auto-incremented primary key. (Bug #17866076, Bug #70888)
* Could not open the ASP.NET Web Configuration tool in the
Solution Explorer when using MySQL for Visual Studio 1.0.2 and
Connector/Net 6.7.5. (Bug #17898244, Bug #69808)
* Fractional part of a value read by
MySqlDataReadeer.GetTimeSpan() from a TIME(3)-typed field was
dropped. (Bug #17923814, Bug #70377)
* When using the Code First approach in Entity Framework 5, a
LINQ query that checked whether a nullable column was null
resulted in a faulty SQL query being generated. (Bug
#17285548, Bug #69922)
* Executing a LINQ query containing an order by clause and a
call to the Contains method using the Take method resulted in
a bad SQL query, which made reference to a no-existent alias.
