TOYS 1.0.46 - October 04, 2010 Known Bugs and Issues This release has the following changes: - Changes in the handling of physical attributes.
- For objects in ASSM tablespaces, the following is explicitly not captured: PCT_USED, INITIAL_EXTENT, NEXT_EXTENT, MIN_EXTENTS, MAX_EXTENTS, PCT_INCREASE, FREELISTS, FREELIST_GROUPS. This is an extension of what was previously done for LMTs.
- As of 10g, MAX_EXTENTS is no longer captured or output in DDL.
- Attributes PCT_FREE, PCT_USED, MIN_TRANS, MAX_TRANS can now be individually included/excluded in schema comparisons. In previous releases, all four attributes were included/excluded as a group.
- Attributes INITIAL_EXTENT, NEXT_EXTENT, MIN_EXTENTS, MAX_EXTENTS, PCT_INCREASE, FREELISTS, FREELIST_GROUPS, BUFFER_POOL can now be individually included/excluded in schema comparisons. In previous releases, all eight attributes were included/excluded as a group.
- Improved the usability of the Compare Wizard.
The first page of the Compare Wizard has been tweaked to [hopefully] improve the usability.
- Fixed: Bug #407 Bug #408 Bug #409

TOYS 1.0.45 - June 01, 2010 Known Bugs and Issues This release has the following changes: - Enabled capture of partitioning details.
This functionality is "a work in progress". It has been enabled for testing by external parties. Please do not expect correct results for partitioning in this release. Please do not save snapshots that contain partitioning details as partitioning part of the DTD is not supported.
- Fixed: Bug #406

TOYS 1.0.44 - May 12, 2010 Known Bugs and Issues This release has the following changes: |
TOYS 1.0.43 - March 10, 2010 Known Bugs and Issues This release has the following changes: - Minor changes to release as freeware.
|
TOYS 1.0.42 - July 15, 2009 Known Bugs and Issues This release has the following changes: - Certification for Oracle 11.
When capturing Oracle 11 schemas using prior releases of TOYS you would have been presented with a message saying that version of Oracle® was not supported. All schema capture queries have now been tested and re-worked [where necessary] to correctly handle Oracle 10R2 and 11. As a result, schema capturing is now as fast and reliable in Oracle 10R2 and 11 as it is for prior Oracle versions.
- Changed the Options form and the Compare Wizard to use tree views.
The Options form and the Compare Wizard now use tree views to select the various options rather than using tab-sheets. This is believed to be more usable.
- Changed the method of matching of check constraints in comparisons.
Previously check constraints were first matched on name and then by definition. This has been reversed to be consistent with the method of matching all other constraints and indexes. As of this release, check constraints are first matched by definition and then on name. Matched by definition means that check constraints are matched on their normalised search-condition text. Search-condition text is normalised by parsing the text and applying the syntax rules of SQL and substituting re-named column names.
- Changed the snapshot file format. DTD version is now 3.12.
The DTD was changed to include the following: - Support for persisting dependencies for schema objects.
- Created new "container elements" for table type and table scope.
- Changed the properties supported for the organization of GTTs.
Backwards compatibility has been maintained with DTD version 3.1 as used by TOYS 1.0.10.
- Fixed: Bug #403 Bug #404

TOYS 1.0.41 - January 03, 2008 Known Bugs and Issues This release has the following changes: - Extended the grace period to 12 months.
|
TOYS 1.0.40 - August 08, 2007 Known Bugs and Issues This release has the following changes: |
TOYS 1.0.39 - July 02, 2007 Known Bugs and Issues This release has the following changes: - Reload Function.
When the working or reference database view is a "live" snapshot it can be "re-loaded" ["refreshed"] by using the menu option View -- Reload. The short-cut key is Ctrl-R. Re-loading a live snapshot re-queries the meta-data from the database but avoids having to re-enter the capture options into the Capture Wizard.
This functionality applies only to "live" snapshots. Snapshots loaded from an archive [file] must be explicitly re-loaded via the usual means.
