Version 3.11.0, released 2021-07-09

Version 3.10.0, released 2021-06-28

Version 3.9.0, released 2021-06-09

  • Commit 0fb438e: feat: add query_optimizer_statistics_package support (see below)

The optimizer statistics package can be set through QueryOptions, which can be configured through the following mechanisms:

  • At the SpannerConnection level.
  • Through the SPANNER_OPTIMIZER_STATISTICS_PACKAGE environment variable.
  • At a query level.

If the options are configured through multiple mechanisms then:

  • Options set at an environment variable level will override options configured at the SpannerConnection level.
  • Options set at a query-level will override options set at either the SpannerConnection or environment variable level.

If no options are set, the optimizer statistics package will default to the package the database is pinned to. If the database is not pinned to a specific package, then the Cloud Spanner backend will use the "latest" version.

Version 3.0.0, released 2020-04-15

GA release targeting GAX 3.0.0. No new features compared with 3.0.0-beta02, other than small resource name improvements for backups.

Version 3.0.0-beta02, released 2020-03-18

  • Commit c5090d1:
    • feat: Adds the ability to set QueryOptions when running Cloud Spanner queries.
  • Commit 36f1e1e: Apply gccl header for Spanner clients in Google.Cloud.Spanner.Data
  • Commit f21fd27:
    • feat: Backup support in Database Admin API
    • feat: List operations RPC in Database Admin API

This release depends on the GA version of GAX 3.0.

Version 3.0.0-beta01, released 2020-02-18

This is the first prerelease targeting GAX v3. Please see the breaking changes guide for details of changes to both GAX and code generation.

Version 2.1.0, released 2019-12-12

  • Commit 0740a76: Adds support for retriable transactions
  • Transparent support for batch creation of sessions (to make session creation more efficient)

Version 2.0.0, released 2019-06-03

New features:

  • Batch query support
  • Connection string option to enable SpannerDataReader.GetSchemaTable() to return schema information
  • DML and PDML support
  • Batch DML support
  • Session label support

Breaking changes:

  • Many aspects of configuration have changed. Please refer to the configuration guide, migration guide and connection string options for more details.
  • Null values are returned as DBNull.Value by default rather than the CLR default value for the type. Array and struct elements use a null value where feasible, but throw InvalidCastException when requested to be converted to a non-nullable value type. The 1.0 behavior can be requested using the UseClrDefaultForNull connection string option.
  • Hashtable is no longer used as a default type for struct values. It can still be specified explicitly. The new default is Dictionary<string, object>.
  • The libraries no longer target netstandard1.5; only netstandard2.0 and net45 are supported

Version 1.0.0, released 2017-12-05

Initial release.
