Production Release for the PHP drivers Version 5.3.0 for SQL Server

We are pleased to announce the production release of the Microsoft Drivers for PHP for SQL Server. The SQLSRV and PDO_SQLSRV drivers have been built with PHP 7.0, 7.1, and 7.2 and tested on all supported platforms.

Notable items about this release (5.3.0) since the last production release (5.2.0) include the following:

Added

• Added support for Azure Key Vault for Always Encrypted functionality. Always Encrypted functionality is supported on Linux and macOS through Azure Key Vault
• Added support for connection resiliency on Linux and macOS (requires version 17.2 or higher of the ODBC driver)
• Added support for macOS High Sierra (requires version 17 or higher of the ODBC driver)
• Added support for Ubuntu 18.04 (requires version 17.2 or higher of the ODBC driver)

Fixed

• Issue #577 - Idle Connection Resiliency doesn't work with Column Encryption enabled connections (fixed in MS ODBC Driver 17.1)
• Issue #678 - Idle Connection Resiliency doesn't work with Connection Pooling (fixed in MS ODBC Driver 17.1)
• Issue #699 - Binding output parameters fails when the query in the stored procedure returns no data. The test case has been added to the test lab.
• Issue #705 - Always Encrypted - Retrieving a negative decimal value (edge case) as output parameter causes truncation
• Issue #706 - Always Encrypted - Cannot insert double with precision and scale (38, 38)
• Issue #707 - Always Encrypted - Fetching decimals / numerics as output parameters bound to PDO::PARAM_BOOL or PDO::PARAM_INT returns floats, not integers
• Issue #735 - Extended the buffer size for PDO::lastInsertId so that data types other than integers can be supported
• Pull Request #759 - Removed the limitation of binding a binary as inout param as PDO::PARAM_STR with SQLSRV_ENCODING_BINARY
