I've fixed the problems that required me to retract version 1.7.18. The
new changes are:
o Fixed an infinite loop in the query mechanism resulting from the
strstream change in the previous version. There is an overloaded
set of str() member functions that weren't a problem when query
objects were based on strstream.
o Query mechanism had a bunch of const-incorrectness: there were
several function parameters and functions that were const for
the convenience of other parts of the code, but within these
functions the constness was const_cast away! This was evil
and wrong; now there are fewer const promises, and only one is
still quietly broken within the code. (It's in the SQLQuery
copy ctor implementation; it should be harmless.)
o Visual C++ projects now look for MySQL build files in c:\mysql,
since that's the default install location. (Previously, it was
c:\program files\mysql.)
