Beta 5 of V3.13 is now available from http://www.instantdb.co.uk. Apart from
the addition of a new function (position) and movement of partitioned table
indexes onto the partitions themselves, this is mostly a bug fix release:

- \\ handling in LIKE clause didn't work. Fixed.
- GROUP BY didn't work in second run of a PreparedStatement. Fixed.
- SMALLCHAR data type didn't handle NULL processing correctly. Fixed.

The full change history since 3.12 is as follows.

- Now accepts SELECT tableName.* from table...
- Alternative locations for new tables can now be specified. Indexes are
created in same place as alternate location tables.
- Statement.setQueryTimeout() has now been fully implemented.
- PreparedStatement.setXXXXstream() functions now implemented.
- New property "timerCheck" added.
- Non-updateable ResultSets now do a commit in auto-commit mode as soon as
the results have been fetched. i.e. Table locks are freed even if the whole
results set has not been read.
- Minor enhancement to JDBCAppl to allow <ENTER> after URL or SQL entry.
- LIKE clauses did not handle \\ correctly. Fixed.
- GROUP BY did not execute correctly on second run of a prepared statement.
Fixed.
- SMALLCHAR did not process NULLs correctly. Fixed.
- Statement.setMaxRows(int) would truncate results sets prematurely even if
an ORDER BY was included. This made it impossible to fetch the "top" or
"bottom" set of values from a table. Fixed.
- The read ahead cache was not updated when rows got deleted from large
tables. Fixed.
- UNIQUE PRIMARY KEYs would sometimes allow duplicates. Fixed.
- Adding a binary column using ALTER TABLE caused an exception. Fixed.
- Bug when updating binary encrypted fields. Fixed.
- Index builds which utilise a large number of similar keys were very slow.
Fixed.
- Table names appearing in the SELECT part of GROUP BY expressions sometimes
caused parsing errors. Fixed.
