Release 2.1.1 - 2012-12-29

This is bug fix release of 2.1.0. All of 2.1.0 users should use 2.1.1 instead.

Fixes

• Fixed a bug that KEY_NORMALIZE information in database that is created by groonga 2.0.8 or ealier is dropped.

Release 2.1.0 - 2012-12-29

Caution

Use 2.1.1 instead of 2.1.0. 2.1.0 has a serious bug related KEY_NORMALIZE.

Caution

This release has backward incompatible changes against table_list and column_list commands. If you use own program which depends on the output results above commands, you need to support null instead of "null" string.

This release has supported --normalizer option, but there is side effect for this feature. If you open old version of groonga database at least once, you can not open its database by old version of groonga.

There is also another backward incompatible change agaist plugin API for tokenizer. The argument of grn_tokenizer_query_open API has changed. This API change affects developer of tokenizer plugin.

Improvements

• [doc] Added documentation about Nested index search among related table by column index.
• Supported the expression as snippet_html arguments. This change enables you to use snippet_html("STRING" + "STRING") for example. You can specify column name or literal for "STRING". [Reported by Tomoatsu Shimada]
• Supported to create own normalizer as a plugin.
• Moved groonga-query-log-analyzer as groonga-query-log RubyGems. It enables you to analyze query logs without installing groonga package.
• Supported --normalizer option for table_create command. This change enables you to specify normalizer plugin.
• Changed "null" string to null value as meaning for "No Object". This is backward incompatible change and affects output results of introspection related commands such as table_list and column_list.
• Added a flag which controls behavior about normalizer as the last argument of grn_tokenizer_query_open API.
• Supported continuous line in Command list.
• Improved to support not only no key table, but also hash table, patricia trie and double array trie for Nested index search among related table by column index.

Fixes

• [windows] Added missing O_BINARY flag to open file correctly. This change fixes the infinite loop problem about groonga HTTP server. [GitHub#47] [Patch by Shimomura Tatsuya]
• Fixed a bug that --default-match-escalation-threshold doesn't accept negative value to disable functionality that is used on 検索. This fix enable you to disable search escalation. see --default-match-escalation-threshold about details.
• Fixed a bug that _score after "*" is ignored in --output_columns.

Thanks

• Shimomura Tatsuya

Release 2.0.9 - 2012-11-29

Improvements

• Supported to calculate the value of distance accross border in geo_distance with rectangle as approximate type. [#1534]
• [doc] Added the GQTP specification.
• Improved to ignore non critical getaddrinfo() error which groonga command emits on startup. This change does not affects nomal use of groonga because it just checked whether default hostname is resolved in previous version.
• [experimental] Added snippet_html() function which extract keyword and surrounding text. See snippet_html about details.
• Supported to report error reason when error occured during reading table record.
• Supported to search with keyword by nested index notation ( concatinate multiple indexed column name with dot character ) if there is a relationship between multiple table with index.
• Supported to log "[tokenizer][mecab]" tag when using TokenMecab tokenizer.
• Supported to log "[tokenizer][kytea]" tag when using TokenKyTea tokenizer.
• Improved to use separated array for command error location as output results. This change is incompatibility change, but does not affects existing program.
• Added documentation for Output format.
• Added documentation for Return code of output results.
• Supported range search by using index.

Fixes

• Fixed to use network byte order for status code of GQTP header to follow the normal network protocol convention. This change affects that groonga <= 2.0.8 client which connects to groonga server 2.0.9 or later can not show status code properly when command failed.
• Fixed a bug that UTF-8 normalization computes wrong offset which affects to return value of snippet_html(). This change not to insert tag of snippet into invalid location. [#1531] [Reported by Tomoatsu Shimada]
• [windows] Fixed over allocated memory access which cause segmentation fault on startup by groonga command. [#1532] [Patch by Akio Tajima]
• [windows] Fixed a bug that data stored in column couldn't be read when total amount of data stored in column exceeds 128MB. [groonga-dev,01088] [Reported by ongaeshi]
• Fixed a bug that searching with indexed column for Int* and UInt* except Int32/Uint32 returns invalid results.
• Fixed a bug that deleting record can be found.
• Fixed a bug that latin1 and koi8r normalizations could not process all string data if given string contains NULL character on the way.
• Fixed to return the correct default value of type when no data stored in column is referenced by select command.
• Fixed to exclude the value of vector column metadata in Offline index construction. This change not to contain such a metadata as search results.
