  • Enhancements
    • support fractional seconds in TIMESTAMP values

    • move foreign key definitions after definition of all tables in schema.rb (to avoid definition of foreign keys before all tables are created)
    • changed timestamp format mask to use ':' before fractional seconds (workaround to avoid table detection in tables_in_string method in ActiveRecord associations.rb file)
    • fixed custom create/update/delete methods with ActiveRecord 2.3+ and timestamps
    • do not call oracle_enhanced specific schema dump methods when using other database adapters

1.2.2 / 2009-09-28

    • create tables with primary key triggers
    • use 'set_sequence_name :autogenerated' for inserting into legacy tables with trigger populated primary keys

    • changed cursor_sharing option default from 'similar' to 'force'
    • optional dbms_output logging to ActiveRecord log file (requires ruby-plsql gem)
    • use add_foreign_key and remove_foreign_key to define foreign key constraints (the same syntax as in http://github.com/matthuhiggins/foreigner and similar to http://github.com/eyestreet/active_record_oracle_extensions)
    • raise RecordNotUnique and InvalidForeignKey exceptions if caused by corresponding ORA errors (these new exceptions are supported just by current ActiveRecord master branch)
    • implemented disable_referential_integrity (enables safe loading of fixtures in schema with foreign key constraints)
    • use add_synonym and remove_synonym to define database synonyms
    • add_foreign_key and add_synonym are also exported to schema.rb
  • Bug fixes:
    • [JRuby] do not raise LoadError if ojdbc14.jar cannot be required (rely on application server to add it to class path)
    • [JRuby] 'execute' can be used to create triggers with :NEW reference
    • support create_table without a block
    • support create_table with Symbol table name
    • use ActiveRecord functionality to do time zone conversion
