I'm happy to announce that MySQLdb is now officially beta and has been bumped up to version 0.1.0. You can find it at:

No real new features, a few minor bugfixes, including plugging a memory leak introduced into 0.0.3.

The patch for ZMySQLDA has been updated and may actually work. Note that MySQLdb (and it's underlying _mysql module) are designed to work and play well with threaded apps like Zope, whereas MySQLmodule-1.4 was not, so if this patch really works (I notice ZMySQLDA still uses regex) you should see a performance increase. If the patch doesn't work, your performance will be shot to hell (as in, no performance at all).

Good news and bad news, Zope smokers: I dug into ZMySQLDA to see how it works and to test it. The bad news is: My patch still wasn't quite right. The good news is: I think it actually works now. I've updated the tarball but left the version number alone. So, if you got it before 1 a.m. EST (0500 UTC), you probably have the old version. The funny thing is: The patched ZMySQLDA doesn't use MySQLdb at all; just _mysqlmodule. It was much easier this way, trust me on this, or read the patch. Make sure that you install MySQLdb and _mysql on your PYTHONPATH, install ZMySQLDA, patch it, and restart Zope. Let me know how it turns out. - -- andy dustman | programmer/analyst | comstar.net, inc. telephone: 770.485.6025 / 706.549.7689 | icq: 32922760 | pgp: 0xc72f3f1d -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3a Charset: noconv iQEPAwUBN98m+ROPBZTHLz8dAQF0SgfLBOuAYWHCtBOIPUOikt9C9KbH/jvbfoDP knoJqpbY1evM3gEp2esIFRIXYC5SZN5KfCmj7MkEpihzaIkylU9sfJNGu4IEf4dD JfYZbTPH2T1XHmijUtS8OgxSo8TSpq8BDaFT7VaHnOH39QNQbRSbzKz4NUCLcjCX /VRqudOtOaPo30nkuLeCJc9ucLyC62oMEBO8tThyJUHmvjx8V2pbsh5r6ZVDy3M7 eB2MvLTndYpBy0nm34QcT2DL0S3WCwAyfz/yu1MUZcr6dmioW626Eu9wcQLFuDeM dAx43R/YcTJFH/xE1yHZFYZm9iG8c9CzhffT9uM/gzsLpw== =MmyH -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
