Release Date: May 19, 2015

New Features

• Added an exception hierarchy of AerospikeError subclasses in the aerospike.exception submodule. [AER-3502]

• Added aerospike.Client.is_connected().
• Fedora 21 support.
• Fixes to the Documentation.

Full Changelog: 1.0.43...1.0.44

1.0.43

Release Date: April 20, 2015

New Features

• Allow for a None as the set value for index creation methods. Support scans and queries against a namespace alone (with the set given as None). [AER-3462]
• Consistent Unicode Handling. This is a change in how string values are returned. Both str and unicode values are converted by the client into UTF-8 encoded strings for storage on the aerospike server. Read methods such as get, Query, Scan and operate will return that data as UTF-8 encoded str values. To get a unicode you will need to manually decode the string.
• Fixed errors in the example scripts.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed Issue 49 - udf_put() hangs. [AER-3537]
• Fixed a segfault which happened while scanning a namespace with None given for the set. [AER-3464]
• Fixed Issue 50 - test harness skips running security methods against community edition.

• Allow Scan and Query objects to be reused.
• Raise an exception when trying to perform operations on an unconnected client (rather than segfaulting).
