Oct2020-SP4 Bugfix Release (11.39.15)
ODBC Driver * When connecting using a DSN (Data Source Name), information about the data source is retrieved from the ODBC.INI file. Now we also get the location of the LOGFILE from this file. The logfile can be used to log all calls to the MonetDB ODBC driver to a file which can be used for debugging. * The ODBC driver now only passes on information about HUGEINT columns as HUGEINT when the application has indicated interest by querying about the SQL_HUGEINT extension type using the SQLGetTypeInfo function or by specifying the type in a call to SQLSetDescField. Otherwise the driver silently translates the HUGEINT type to BIGINT. This means that most application will see BIGINT columns when the server produced a HUGEINT column and only give an error if the value in the HUGEINT column didn't fit into a BIGINT.
