At its heart, Super Mario Bros. Wonder retains the classic 2D platforming feel that fans love, but it injects a wave of creativity that makes it feel entirely fresh. The standout feature is the Wonder Flower. When collected, these flowers trigger chaotic, level-bending moments known as "Wonder Effects." Pipes might come to life, Mario could transform into a spiky rolling ball, or the entire level geometry could shift, turning the stage into an entirely new experience.

-
details, based on test table:
CREATE TABLE tbl_sparse_test
( col1 INT SPARSE
, col2 INT
, col3 XML COLUMN_SET FOR ALL_SPARSE_COLUMNS
)
-
wildcard query will return only col2 and col3; will not include SPARSE columns. This is standard SQL Server behavior, and it cannot be changed.
SELECT *
FROM tbl_sparse_test
;
To include SPARSE columns in results, they must be explicitly SELECTed
SELECT col1, col2, col3
FROM tbl_sparse_test
;
-
By default, calls to SQLColumns() don't return Sparse Columns. To receive full columns list:
-
added support for new SQL Server datatypes such as datetime2
-
added support for NBCROW token
-
added support for Sybase 15
Fixes
-
fixed issue with SQL Server BIT datatype
-
fixed memory overwrite error, when DB procedure is called with SQL_PARAM_OUTPUT parameter of CHAR/VARCHAR/LONGVARCHAR

fixed issue with VARBINARY datatype and DB procedures
-
fixed issue with converting TIMESTAMP to CHAR/WCHAR
-
fixed datatype info in SQLGetTypeInfo -- new Sybase and MSSQL datatypes were added

Why Do I Need To Pay For ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET, OLE-DB Drivers? (revisited)
Situation Analysis
It's the year 2015, and the fundamental issues associated with the utility of data access drivers remain confusing. Basically, we remain uncertain about the value-to-compensation alignment of ODBC (Open Database Connectivity), JDBC (Java Database Connectivity), and ADO.NET drivers/providers.
Why do we pay for anything?
After allowing for consumer irrationality [1], the basis of any payment is fundamentally tied to the monetization of opportunity costs. Essentially, we pay for one thing to alleviate the (usually higher) costs of something else.
The rest of this post focuses on highlighting the real pains associated with the $0.00 value misconception associated with Data Access Drivers: ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET, OLE-DB, etc.
Real Costs of Data Access Drivers
In the most basic sense, there are some fundamental aspects of data access that are complex to implement and rarely implemented (if at all) by free drivers. The list includes:
-
Escape Syntaxes for Dates and Functions -- abstraction for dates and function signatures at the application level (i.e., the same abstraction works across all compliant databases)
-
Metadata Calls which enable smarter ODBC compliant applications -- this feature is typically missing in Drivers and abused by the Clients (consumers); i.e., clients are made DBMS specific by testing for specific DBMS names, rather than utilizing feature and functionality metadata returned by drivers
-
Scrollable Cursors -- this is how you deal with change sensitivity and paging through large datasets; some drivers actually fake support and get away with it due to shortage of applications to test proper cursor types (Static, Forward-Only, Key-Set, Dynamic, and Mixed models).
Beyond actual driver sophistication, in regards to key feature implementations, let's up the ante by veering into the area of data security. At the most basic level, It's extremely important to understand that all data access drivers provide read-write access to your databases; thus, it's imperative that data access drivers address the following:
- Read-Only or Read-Write Access modalities scoped to specific
- users
- user groups
- target databases
- data access standards (e.g., ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET)
- client applications
- client host operating systems
- client host IP addresses
- Any combination of the above as part of a configurable collection of data access rules (or policies).
Once you're done with security, you then have the thorny issue of data access and data flow management. In a nutshell, your driver needs to be able to handle:
-
Protection against Cartesian-product-based network flooding (e.g., user queries an enormous table without knowing or understanding back-end implications)
-
Enabling or Disabling of key DBMS engine data access optimization features (e.g. SQL RDBMS-specific extensions exposed via Environment Variables or SQL-command-based settings)
-
Conditional Connection Pooling across various dimensions such as Users, User Groups, Applications, Host Operating Systems, IP Addresses
-
Encryption of Data in Transit
Once you've dealt with Security and Data Flow, you then have to address the enforcement of these settings across a myriad of ODBC compliant host, which is where Zeroconfig and centralized data access administration comes into play i.e., configure once (locally) and enforce globally.
OpenLink Universal Data Access (UDA) Drivers
When OpenLink Software entered the ODBC Driver Market segment (circa 1992), the issues above were the fundamental basis of our Multi-Tier Drivers. Although the marketplace highlighted our drivers for high performance, stability, and specification adherence -- to all of which we remain committed -- our fundamental engineering focus has always been skewed towards configurable data security, platform independence, and scalability.
Every item of concern outlined in the section above is addressed by security features built into our Multi-Tier Drivers [2][3][4]. These features all leverage the fact that our multi-tier drivers include a sophisticated DB session rules book that enables construction and enforcement of user attribute (user name, application, client operating system, IP address, target database etc.) based rules which are applied to all database sessions (single or pooled).
|
Today, in the year 2015, the security issues that pervade Data Access, whether via Native SQL RDBMS Drivers, or ODBC, JDBC, and ADO.NET Drivers/Providers, have only increased, courtesy of ubiquitous computing -- facilitated by the Internet & Web, across desktop and mobile device dimensions. Paradoxically, there remains a fundamental illusion that all Data Access Drivers are made the same; i.e., they simply provide you with the ability to connect to SQL RDBMS back-ends, for the industry standard price of $0.00, without consequence -- thereby skewing the very nature of SQL RDBMS data access and its security and privacy implications.
I hope that this post brings some clarity to a very serious security and general configuration management issues associated with Data Access Drivers. Free ODBC Drivers offer nothing; that's why they cost $0.00. When dealing with real issues associated with Open Data Access, you must have a handle on the inevitable issues of data security and privacy.
