mongo-c-driver 1.5.4

It is my pleasure to announce mongo-c-driver 1.5.4. This release fixes an error
in cursor iteration when a readConcern is set. Thanks to Jeremy Mikola and
Hannes Magnusson.

Peace,
-- A. Jesse Jiryu Davis

mongo-c-driver 1.5.3

This release fixes a bug that prevented connecting to IPv4-only MongoDB servers
by hostname.

https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/CDRIVER-1988

The driver has reverted to its 1.5.1 behavior: it connects to MongoDB over IPv6
if given an IPv6 connection string like "mongodb://[::1]", and requires an IPv4
connection when given a hostname like "mongodb://localhost".

Peace,

A. Jesse Jiryu Davis

mongo-c-driver 1.5.2

Update: this release has been removed due to a blocker bug, CDRIVER-1988.

It is my pleasure to announce mongo-c-driver 1.5.2.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the development of this release.

New bug fixes:

• CDRIVER-1975 allow mixed $ and non-$ query ops.
• CDRIVER-1972 Support for ipv6 hostnames.
• CDRIVER-1971 Missing exports of mongoc_gridfs_file_set_*() functions.
• CDRIVER-1970 update define constants for "find" opts to be unique.
• CDRIVER-1964 Windows CA stores should be opened with read-only flag.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the development of this release.

• Improve error messages from auth failure.
• Escape quotes when appending CFLAGS to handshake metadata.

mongo-c-driver 1.5.0

It is my pleasure to announce the release of mongo-c-driver 1.5.0.

New features and bug fixes:

• MongoDB 3.4 Support
  • New URI and read preference option, "maxStalenessSeconds"
  • Set MongoDB client handshake data with mongoc_client_set_appname or
    mongoc_client_pool_set_appname.
  • writeConcern and readConcern enhancements.
  • Collation allows users to specify language-specific rules for string
    comparison when sorting documents. See the code examples for
    mongoc_client_read_command_with_opts, mongoc_collection_count_with_opts,
    mongoc_collection_find_with_opts, and mongoc_index_opt_t, as well as the
    "Setting Collation Order" section of the "Bulk Write Operations" guide.
• mongoc_collection_count_with_opts uses the collection's read preference if
  none is passed in
• Improved TLS support
  • Fixed LibreSSL (libssl) support
  • Added LibreSSL (libtls) support
  • Fixed Secure Channel build on VS 2010
  • OpenSSL now supports SNI (all others already do)
• Additional features for Application Performance Monitoring:
  • mongoc_topology_description_has_writable_server
  • mongoc_topology_description_has_readable_server
  • Notifications when a server or topology description changes, and when a
    monitoring heartbeat begins and succeeds or fails.
  • mongoc_client_set_apm_callbacks can be used repeatedly to change or clear
    the list of monitoring callbacks.
• New functions accept flexible options as a BSON document:
  • mongoc_collection_find_with_opts
  • mongoc_client_read_command_with_opts
  • mongoc_client_write_command_with_opts
  • mongoc_client_read_write_command_with_opts
  • mongoc_database_read_command_with_opts
  • mongoc_database_write_command_with_opts
  • mongoc_database_read_write_command_with_opts
  • mongoc_collection_read_command_with_opts
  • mongoc_collection_write_command_with_opts
  • mongoc_collection_read_write_command_with_opts
  • mongoc_gridfs_find_with_opts
  • mongoc_gridfs_find_one_with_opts
  • mongoc_bulk_operation_remove_one_with_opts
  • mongoc_bulk_operation_remove_many_with_opts
  • mongoc_bulk_operation_replace_one_with_opts
  • mongoc_bulk_operation_update_one_with_opts
  • mongoc_bulk_operation_update_many_with_opts
• mongoc_collection_find is now deprecated in favor of
  mongoc_collection_find_with_opts.
• New helper function to include read concern in one of the above function's
  options parameter: mongoc_read_concern_append.
• mongoc_client_command no longer applies the client's read preference and
  read concern by default. Same change for mongoc_database_command and
  mongoc_collection_command.
• mongoc_collection_count_with_opts now applies the collection's read
  preference if no read preference is provided
• mongoc_collection_create_index and mongoc_collection_drop_index now apply
  the collection's write concern.
• mongoc_collection_create_index_with_opts now applies the collection's
  write concern if none is specified in "opts"
• connectTimeoutMS timer now begins after DNS resolution, and resets
  for each interface attempted (e.g., if the driver first tries IPv6,
  then IPv4).
• New error code MONGOC_ERROR_DUPLICATE_KEY.
• mongoc_collection_find no longer treats the "filter" key specially in
  queries - querying for a document with a key named "filter" is the same
  now as any other key.
• The server description parameter to the following functions is "const":
  • mongoc_server_description_host
  • mongoc_server_description_id
  • mongoc_server_description_ismaster
  • mongoc_server_description_round_trip_time
  • mongoc_server_description_type
• Exported symbols are no longer declared in seperate export files.
  This could break ABI with applications using clang, which previously
  exported symbols from the internal private ABI.
• mongoc no longer crashes when multi roundtrip bulk operation fails.
• Added support for the new readConcernLevel "linearizable".
• Clients now check for misformatted "readPreferenceTags" in URI.
• New CMake option ENABLE_TRACING allows debug output, which before had only
  been available with "configure --enable-tracing".
• Bugfix: "PossiblePrimary"-type replicas could be selected for reads
• Bugfixes: The random number generator used to select servers is now properly
  seeded, and secondary queries are now properly distributed according to
  localThresholdMS, not just to the lowest-latency secondary. The latency
  estimate is reset after a connection error.
• Fix crashes in mongoc_topology_invalidate_server and
  mongoc_client_kill_cursor.
• mongoc_collection_insert, mongoc_collection_update, mongoc_collection_remove
  consistently use domain MONGOC_ERROR_BSON, code MONGOC_ERROR_BSON_INVALID
  if passed oversized BSON, and MONGOC_ERROR_COLLECTION for other errors.
  mongoc_bulk_operation_execute continues to use MONGOC_ERROR_COMMAND for
  all errors.
• If mongoc_client_pool_t fails to start its scanner thread in the background,
  it logs and aborts instead of silently continuing, then failing to connect.
• The driver now updates its view of the whole topology with information from
  each new connection handshake.
• Improved error reporting when the driver fails to reach the server, and
  correctly distinguish "connection error" and "connection timeout".

Deprecations:

• mongoc_collection_find is deprecated for mongoc_collection_find_with_opts.

Removed configure flags:

• --enable-experimental has been removed. All previously experimental
  features are now always on.
• The configure option "--enable-hardening" had had no effect. It is removed
  in favor of system-wide compiler configuration.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the development of this release.
