Latest Version Changes

The latest version includes the following changes:

• Added connect with default database.
• Added rows effected, last insert id.
• Stability and speed improvements.
• Removed infinite wait in read_packet() if connection dropped. Merged wait_for_client() and wait_for_data() into one universal wait_for_bytes(int).
• Improved connect() speed.
• Improved sending queries speed. Sending the whole buffer at a time (not byte by byte).
• Fixed bug with check_ok_packet() return value. The check_ok_packet() simplified to get_packet_type().
• Added checks for buffer validity in places it is going to be used.
• Improved stability on "incorrect" methods calls.
• Restored WITH_SELECT, but defined by default.
• Added DEBUG define to avoid prints to Serial port. Useful when Serial is used to communicate with sensors.
