Hello Yet Again:

Sorry to be crying wolf so many times over the past week, but another
release of PEAR DB was made yesterday, 1.6.0RC6.

The biggest improvement in this release is better mapping of error
codes.  Several DBMS's now properly report duplicate key constraint
violations as DB_ERROR_CONSTRAINT.  The DB_PORTABILITY_ERRORS
portability option was added to ensure consistent codes between
different database systems.

Several bugs related to limitQuery() were found and quashed.

tableInfo() was added for Informix and bugs fixed for InterBase.  Plus, I
eliminated bug I introduced in 1.6.0RC5 that caused 'undefined function'
errors when lowercasing portability was off.

Please download the package and test it out.  File bug reports
if stuff doesn't work or is unclear.

Change Log:  http://pear.php.net/package-changelog.php?package=DB
Manual:      http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.database.php
Report Bugs: http://pear.php.net/bugs/report.php?package=DB
Home Page:   http://pear.php.net/package/DB

Oh, and if you like the new features, the tons of bug fixes,
and/or the documentation improvements that have happened since
1.5.0RC2, share your happiness via my "Wishlist" page at
http://www.analysisandsolutions.com/donate/donate.htm

If you're curious why there have been so many release candidates, it's
because the initial RC was pushed out ahead of schedule in order to
get something into PHP 4.3.5RC2 so more people could test it.

Thanks,

--Dan
