SQLyog MySQL GUI 12.16 released

Released: Nov 3, 2015

Updates in this release

Updates in 12.16

Features:

  • Schema Designer may now optionally use 'portrait' or 'landscape' layout for printing. Before only 'portrait' was available. Also page breaks may now be previewed.

Bug Fixes:

  • With 'ChallengeResponseAuthentication' set to "YES" in SSHD configuration, SSH tunnel from SQLyog would fail. This was introduced in 12.13 with the PLINK update here.
  • On Wine the color palette used for customizing colors of the SQLyog interface did not open.
  • In the Connection Manager .. MySQL tab, pressing ALT+V moved cursor to "keep alive interval" setting (last control of the tab) and not "saved connections" (first control of the tab).

Miscellaneous:

  • The Import External Data tool would create indexes on BLOB/TEXT columns with an index prefix length of (only) 6 characters. This has been raised to 255.
  • SQL Server "UNIQUEIDENTIFIER" and Access "REPLICATIONID" data types are now migrated to a CHAR(36) and not CHAR(50) as before. This is for compability with how various applications and environments - including and most notably MS EntityFramework - expect data length of a Unique Identifier.
