I’m pleased to announce version 1.17.0-beta of libbson and libmongoc,
the libraries constituting the MongoDB C Driver.
libbson
Features:
- Add the cmake option ENABLE_PIC to build static libraries with position independent code.
Notes:
- Deprecated “lib” prefixed artifacts are no longer produced when building on Windows.
libmongoc
Features:
- Support the MONGODB-AWS authentication mechanism.
- Support the Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) for OpenSSL 1.1.0+, Secure Transport, and Secure Channel.
- Support the “hint” option in operations using the update, replace, delete, and findAndModify commands.
- Improve behavior for retryable writes.
- Improve resuming behavior of change streams on server errors.
- Remove an extra round trip for SCRAM authentication.
- Remove restriction of 255 character collection namespaces.
Bug fixes:
- Fix possible use of invalidated streams during an unordered OP_QUERY bulk write, and when ending many pooled sessions at client destruction.
- Fix a crash when setting the crl_file TLS option for Secure Channel.
- Avoid emitting duplicate ServerChanged events when no change is observed during monitoring.
- Properly handle large SASL messages instead of erroring.
Notes:
- Deprecated “lib” prefixed artifacts are no longer produced when building on Windows.
