One More Major Feature Done

Friday, May 26th, 2006

Just pushed out 0.10. This release has basically only one major change, the introduction of the capability to create and manage user defined functions. As with stored procedures and views, you can access functions from the database context menu (right click) or by scrolling to the bottom of the database properties page. Also, the software is at a sufficient state where I no longer deem it to be “Alpha” quality. Therefore the software is now officially classified as “Beta”. Enjoy, and have a good memorial day.

Bug Hunting Release

Sunday, May 21st, 2006

Just released 0.9 which includes a number of bug fixes with a very minor feature enhancement. Included are fixes for a table creation bug, row insertion bug, and a function library logic bug. Also added was the ability to add new stored procedures and views as opposed to the previous releases which had edit-only functionality.

More Mobility Continued

Sunday, May 14th, 2006

The new version (0.8) was just released. It includes medium sized functionality (tables, procedures, views) and layout fixes for the mobile client as well as a small feature enhancment in both versions in relation to functions available during table row insertion (namely the SHA1 function was added).

Unchain Your DB Admin

Sunday, May 7th, 2006

After releasing two major features in a row, I thought 0.9 might be a good release for a feature which couldn’t really be called critical. In fact, it is probably considered more of a perk or luxury feature then anything else in phpMSAdmin. This release includes a new mobile version of phpMSAdmin designed to run on either a Windows Mobile or Palm powered smartphone or PDA. Only basic functionality is there, including connecting to the server, viewing databases and tables, and selecting and browsing tables. You can try it out by adding “/mobile” to the end of your normal phpMSAdmin URL. Check it out.
