[odb-announcements] ODB 2.1.0.a1 available

[Boris Kolpackov]

Hi,

The first alpha version for the upcoming ODB 2.1.0 is now available. The 
NEWS file entries so far are:

 * Support for mapping additional database types, such as geospatial types,
   user-defined types, and collections. This mechanism allows you to map
   any database type to one of the types for which ODB provides built-in
   support (normally string or binary). The text or binary representation
   of the data can then be extracted into a C++ data type of your choice.
   For more information, refer to Section 12.6, "Database Type Mapping
   Pragmas" in the ODB manual.

 * The session constructor now accepts an options bool argument (true by
   default) which indicates whether to make this session current for this
   thread. For more information, refer to Chapter 10, "Session" in the ODB
   manual.

 * Support for mapping boost::posix_time::ptime and QDateTime to the DATE
   Oracle type. For more information, refer to Sections 19.4.4 (Boost) and
   20.4.4 (Qt) in the ODB manual.

It also includes a number of fixes for handling circularly-dependant
persistent classes defined in separate headers.

This pre-release is available from:

The SHA1 sums for all the files in this pre-release are provided at the
end of the email. 

Testing and feedback are much appreciated.

Enjoys,
	Boris
