Product Updates

I'm almost through publishing the updates for the Data Port products. One of the most elusive bugs was finally rooted out - an intermittent and rare failure when exporting data via RAPI streams. The IRAPIStream::Read does not guarantee that it will read all the requested bytes in a single call, so it must be called enough times to fill the target buffer. Interestingly, this will only happen very rarely but when it does, the export procedure fails. This update pertains to both the PC and CE code.

Another subtle bug has also been corrected: importing empty NTEXT fields into SQL Server. Apparently the SQL Server provider does not like to be given an empty stream object - you must really pass a NULL pointer as the parameter value.
