We are excited to announce the technical preview for SQLSRV and PDO_SQLSRV drivers support PHP 7.2 Beta 1 as well. Both drivers have been built PHP 7.2 Beta 1 and tested on all supported platforms (Mac OS X (Sierra and El Capitan), Ubuntu 16, Debian 8, CentOS 7, and Windows)
Notable items about 5.0.0-preview release,
Added
- Added support for PHP 7.2 Beta 1
Changed
- Implementation of PDO::lastInsertId($name) to return the last inserted sequence number if the sequence name is supplied to the function (lastInsertId)
Removed
- No longer support Ubuntu 15
- Supplying tablename into PDO::lastInsertId($name) no longer return the last inserted row (lastInsertId)
Limitation
- No support for inout / output params when using sql_variant type
Known Issues
- When pooling is enabled in Linux or MAC
- unixODBC <= 2.3.4 (Linux and MAC) might not return proper diagnostics information, such as error messages, warnings and informative messages
- due to this unixODBC bug, fetch large data (such as xml, binary) as streams as a workaround. See the examples here
