Hi all, want to try monetdb C API. I've read the examples including Mapi.h from mapilib directory. I do not find any mapilib dir. On windows Mapi.h is in the lib dir under monetdb root. On linux Mapi.h is in /usr/include/monetdb. Are the examples updated with the last monetdb distribution? I've read Mapi.h. Mapi type is defined as MapiStruct* but I can't find any definition for MapiStruct in Mapi.h. The same holds for MapiHdl vs MapiStatement*. Am I missing something? Thank you for any answer.

[Monetdb-developers] Information request

Sorry for insisting, I'm interested in learning more about monetdb, but I've some difficulties in finding the informations I'm searching for. I would like to learn more about the C API, so I'm searching for some coding examples. The only thing I found was presumably an old example (as Stefan told me) about mapi usage that unfortunately doesn't work for me with monetdb current release (tried both linux and windows releases). I wrote two times to the developer list but at the moment no meaningful answer. Am I missing something? Have monetdb a still live developer community.? Should I take a direct contact to info(a)monetdb.org? Should I use bugzilla tracker? Hope not to annoy anyone. Best regards. -------------------------------------------------------------- -- Dott.

Hi Stefan, I'm viewing the docs on http:// http://www.monetdb.org/Documentation/Manuals/SQLreference/Programming/MAPI, isn't this the right place? Thanks for answering.

[Monetdb-developers] Announcement: New Aug2011-SP2 Bugfix release of MonetDB suite
by MonetDB Release Engineer 26 Oct '11

26 Oct '11

The MonetDB team at CWI/MonetDB BV is pleased to announce the Aug2011-SP2 bugfix 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/>. Aug 2011-SP2 bugfix release Client Package * ODBC: Implemented a workaround in SQLTables for bug 2908. * Small improvement to mclient's table rendering for tables without any rows. Previously, the column names in the header could be squeezed to very small widths, degrading readability. * Python DB API connect() function now supports PEP 249-style arguments user and host, bug #2901 * mclient now checks the result of encoding conversions using the iconv library. * Fixed a source of crashes in mclient when a query on the command line using the -s option is combined with input on standard input (e.g. in the construct mclient -s 'COPY INTO t FROM STDIN ...' < file.csv). * Fixed bug 2897 where slow (network) reads could cause blocks to not be fully read in one go, causing errors in the subsequent use of those blocks. With thanks to Rémy Chibois. * Fixed a bug in mclient where processing queries from files could result in ghost empty results to be reported in the output Merovingian * Resolved problem where monetdbd would terminate abnormally when databases named 'control', 'discovery' or 'merovingian' were stopped. * monetdbd get status now also reports the version of the running monetdbd * Improved response time of 'monetdb start' when the database fails to start. * Fixed a bug in monetdbd where starting a failing database could incorrectly be reported as a 'running but dead' database. * To avoid confusion, all occurrences of merovingian were changed into monetdbd for error messages sent to a client. Bug Fixes * 2346: mkey.bulk_rotate_xor_hash MAL exception * 2712: un-rolled-back savepoints cause crash upon scenario exit * 2774: COPY INTO of double (~1.0e-310) cannot be imported. * 2890: Slow execution of COUNT in combination with DISTINCT * 2894: No consistent behavior of implicit cast of integer to double * 2897: Mapi.pm: short reads not handled when reading blocks from server * 2898: order by for multiple (two) columns fails for large tables when second ordering is 'desc': "mat.refine_reverse' undefined" * 2900: rand(int) should not return NULL * 2901: Make keyword arguments in Python DB API connect() function more standard * 2904: TypeException after calling UDF in other than sys schema (when it is initialised) * 2906: "ALTER TABLE mytable SET READ ONLY" results in server segfault * 2908: SQL query produces error with MAL statements * 2909: query result is not displayed when history = true

[Monetdb-developers] New Dec2011 stable branch created
by Sjoerd Mullender 17 Oct '11

17 Oct '11

I have created a new stable branch for the next feature release. This branch was created in order to stabilize the code before the feature release. From now on *only* bug fixes may go to this new stable branch. I reserve the right to undo any changes that do not comply with this rule. I also reserve the right to admit changes that are not strictly bug fixes. The name for the branch is Dec2011. So in each of your stable checkout directories you can do hg pull hg update -rDec2011 to update to this new branch. -- Sjoerd Mullender

Hi, I've built the latest code from Mercurial repository, and I cannot get any database to start.
