SQL Maestro Group is happy to announce the release of SQLite Maestro 12.1, a powerful Windows GUI solution for SQLite server administration and database development. Please consider the list of new features implemented in this version since the last official release: |
Server management extensions:
- SQLite Maestro has been successfully tested with the latest SQLite versions. The latest available library (3.7.10) is now included into the installation package.
- Starting with this version our software supports SQLite Online Backups. The copy operation is processed incrementally, so the source database does not need to be locked for the duration of the copy, only for the brief periods of time when it is actually being read from. This allows other database users to continue uninterrupted while a backup of an online database is made. To invoke the wizard, use the Main Menu | Tools | Backup Database menu item.
Interface improvements:
-
The Change password dialog has been renamed to Manage encryption to better reflect its functionality and has been redesigned for more understandability. Now the database encryption management is simple and easy in access.
-
The SQL editor component has been dramatically improved (applied to SQL Editor, SQL Script Editor, and editors of objects containing SQL bodies such as views, stored procedures, and triggers):
-
Unicode support has been implemented. Starting with this version you can view and edit queries and scripts containing string literals in almost any possible language including, for example, Russian, Chinese and Japanese.
Also it becomes possible to load/save files in different encodings. If you try to save an SQL script containing non-locale characters to a file in an incompatible encoding, a warning about a potential loss of data will be issued.
-
Text change markers are now at your disposal. Yellow markers show changed but unsaved lines of code, and green markers show changes in this session that have been saved.
-
Now the application allows you to use Code snippets, segments of reusable code that you can copy into the editor. To insert a snippet into the edited text, use the corresponding item of the popup menu or Ctrl+J shortcut.
-
The code folding appearance has been updated. In particular, the new version introduces support for fold signs as well as improved look and feel of the folding margin and hints.
-
Unicode support has been implemented. Starting with this version you can view and edit queries and scripts containing string literals in almost any possible language including, for example, Russian, Chinese and Japanese.
-
Table Editor features:
-
Another way of index creating has been implemented. Now you can create a new index directly from the Fields tab of the table editor. To add an index, select column(s) the new index to consist of and use the Create index on columns... command.
- Foreign key references i.e. foreign keys created in other tables and referencing for columns of the current one, are now displayed well.
