Changelogs

Werkzeug 0.12.2 -> 0.14.1

0.14.1

---

Released on December 31st 2017

• Resolved a regression with status code handling in the integrated
  development server.

0.14

---

Released on December 31st 2017

• HTTP exceptions are now automatically caught by
  Request.application.
• Added support for edge as browser.
• Added support for platforms that lack SpooledTemporaryFile.
• Add support for etag handling through if-match
• Added support for the SameSite cookie attribute.
• Added werkzeug.wsgi.ProxyMiddleware
• Implemented has for NullCache
• get_multi on cache clients now returns lists all the time.
• Improved the watchdog observer shutdown for the reloader to not crash
  on exit on older Python versions.
• Added support for filename* filename attributes according to
  RFC 2231
• Resolved an issue where machine ID for the reloader PIN was not
  read accurately on windows.
• Added a workaround for syntax errors in init files in the reloader.
• Added support for using the reloader with console scripts on windows.
• The built-in HTTP server will no longer close a connection in cases
  where no HTTP body is expected (204, 204, HEAD requests etc.)
• The EnvironHeaders object now skips over empty content type and
  lengths if they are set to falsy values.
• Werkzeug will no longer send the content-length header on 1xx or
  204/304 responses.
• Cookie values are now also permitted to include slashes and equal
  signs without quoting.
• Relaxed the regex for the routing converter arguments.
• If cookies are sent without values they are now assumed to have an
  empty value and the parser accepts this. Previously this could have
  corrupted cookies that followed the value.
• The test Client and EnvironBuilder now support mimetypes like
  the request object does.
• Added support for static weights in URL rules.
• Better handle some more complex reloader scenarios where sys.path
  contained non directory paths.
• EnvironHeaders no longer raises weird errors if non string keys
  are passed to it.

0.13

---

Released on December 7th 2017

• Deprecate support for Python 2.6 and 3.3. CI tests will not run
  for these versions, and support will be dropped completely in the next
  version. (pallets/meta24_)
• Raise TypeError when port is not an integer. (1088_)
• Fully deprecate werkzeug.script. Use Click_ instead. (1090_)
• response.age is parsed as a timedelta. Previously, it was
  incorrectly treated as a datetime. The header value is an integer
  number of seconds, not a date string. (414_)
• Fix a bug in TypeConversionDict where errors are not propagated
  when using the converter. (1102_)
• Authorization.qop is a string instead of a set, to comply with
  RFC 2617. (984_)
• An exception is raised when an encoded cookie is larger than, by
  default, 4093 bytes. Browsers may silently ignore cookies larger than
  this. BaseResponse has a new attribute max_cookie_size and
  dump_cookie has a new argument max_size to configure this.
  (780, 1109)
• Fix a TypeError in werkzeug.contrib.lint.GuardedIterator.close.
  (1116_)
• BaseResponse.calculate_content_length now correctly works for
  Unicode responses on Python 3. It first encodes using
  iter_encoded. (705_)
• Secure cookie contrib works with string secret key on Python 3.
  (1205_)
• Shared data middleware accepts a list instead of a dict of static
  locations to preserve lookup order. (1197_)
• HTTP header values without encoding can contain single quotes.
  (1208_)
• The built-in dev server supports receiving requests with chunked
  transfer encoding. (1198_)

  statements (:ticket:633).
• Fixed compatibility problem with pypy3 (:ticket:649).
• Wheel packages compiled against PostgreSQL 10.1 libpq and OpenSSL 1.0.2n.
• Wheel packages for Python 2.6 no more available (support dropped from
  wheel building infrastructure).

SQLAlchemy 1.1.15 -> 1.2.3

1.2.3

:released: February 16, 2018

.. change::
:tags: bug, oracle
🎟️ 4182

   Fixed bug in cx_Oracle disconnect detection, used by pre_ping and other
   features, where an error could be raised as DatabaseError which includes a
   numeric error code; previously we weren't checking in this case for a
   disconnect code.

.. change::
:tags: bug, sqlite

   Fixed the import error raised when a platform
   has neither pysqlite2 nor sqlite3 installed, such
   that the sqlite3-related import error is raised,
   not the pysqlite2 one which is not the actual
   failure mode.  Pull request courtesy Robin.

.. change::
:tags: bug, orm
🎟️ 4175

   Fixed bug where the :class:`.Bundle` object did not
   correctly report upon the primary :class:`.Mapper` object
   represened by the bundle, if any.   An immediate
   side effect of this issue was that the new selectinload
   loader strategy wouldn't work with the horizontal sharding
   extension.

.. change::
:tags: bug, sql
🎟️ 4180

   Fixed bug where the :class:`.Enum` type wouldn't handle
   enum "aliases" correctly, when more than one key refers to the
   same value.  Pull request courtesy Daniel Knell.

.. change::
:tags: bug, engine
🎟️ 4181

   Fixed bug where events associated with an :class:`Engine`
   at the class level would be doubled when the
   :meth:`.Engine.execution_options` method were used.  To
   achieve this, the semi-private class :class:`.OptionEngine`
   no longer accepts events directly at the class level
   and will raise an error; the class only propagates class-level
   events from its parent :class:`.Engine`.   Instance-level
   events continue to work as before.

.. change::
:tags: bug, tests
🎟️ 3265

   A test added in 1.2 thought to confirm a Python 2.7 behavior turns out to
   be confirming the behavior only as of Python 2.7.8. Python bug 8743 still
   impacts set comparison in Python 2.7.7 and earlier, so the test in question
   involving AssociationSet no longer runs for these older Python 2.7
   versions.

.. change::
:tags: feature, oracle

   The ON DELETE options for foreign keys are now part of
   Oracle reflection.  Oracle does not support ON UPDATE
   cascades.  Pull request courtesy Miroslav Shubernetskiy.

.. change::
:tags: bug, orm
🎟️ 4188

   Fixed bug in concrete inheritance mapping where user-defined
   attributes such as hybrid properties that mirror the names
   of mapped attributes from sibling classes would be overwritten by
   the mapper as non-accessible at the instance level.   Additionally
   ensured that user-bound descriptors are not implicitly invoked at the class
   level during the mapper configuration stage.

.. change::
:tags: bug, orm
🎟️ 4178

   Fixed bug where the :func:`.orm.reconstructor` event
   helper would not be recognized if it were applied to the
   ``__init__()`` method of the mapped class.

.. change::
:tags: bug, engine
🎟️ 4170

   The :class:`.URL` object now allows query keys to be specified multiple
   times where their values will be joined into a list.  This is to support
   the plugins feature documented at :class:`.CreateEnginePlugin` which
   documents that "plugin" can be passed multiple times. Additionally, the
   plugin names can be passed to :func:`.create_engine` outside of the URL
   using the new :paramref:`.create_engine.plugins` parameter.

.. change::
:tags: feature, sql
🎟️ 3906

   Added support for :class:`.Enum` to persist the values of the enumeration,
   rather than the keys, when using a Python pep-435 style enumerated object.
   The user supplies a callable function that will return the string values to
   be persisted.  This allows enumerations against non-string values to be
   value-persistable as well.  Pull request courtesy Jon Snyder.

.. change::
:tags: feature, orm

   Added new argument :paramref:`.attributes.set_attribute.inititator`
   to the :func:`.attributes.set_attribute` function, allowing an
   event token received from a listener function to be propagated
   to subsequent set events.

.. changelog::

1.2.2

:released: January 24, 2018

.. change::
:tags: bug, mssql
🎟️ 4164

   Added ODBC error code 10054 to the list of error
   codes that count as a disconnect for ODBC / MSSQL server.

.. change::
:tags: bug, orm
🎟️ 4171

   Fixed 1.2 regression regarding new bulk_replace event
   where a backref would fail to remove an object from the
   previous owner when a bulk-assignment assigned the
   object to a new owner.

.. change::
:tags: bug, oracle
🎟️ 4163

   The cx_Oracle dialect now calls setinputsizes() with cx_Oracle.NCHAR
   unconditionally when the NVARCHAR2 datatype, in SQLAlchemy corresponding
   to sqltypes.Unicode(), is in use.  Per cx_Oracle's author this allows
   the correct conversions to occur within the Oracle client regardless
   of the setting for NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET.

.. change::
:tags: bug, mysql

   Added more MySQL 8.0 reserved words to the MySQL dialect
   for quoting purposes.  Pull request courtesy
   Riccardo Magliocchetti.

.. changelog::

1.2.1

:released: January 15, 2018

.. change::
:tags: bug, orm
🎟️ 4159

   Fixed regression where pickle format of a Load / _UnboundLoad object (e.g.
   loader options) changed and ``__setstate__()`` was raising an
   UnboundLocalError for an object received from the legacy format, even
   though an attempt was made to do so.  tests are now added to ensure this
   works.

.. change::
:tags: bug, ext
🎟️ 4150

   Fixed regression in association proxy due to :ticket:`3769`
   (allow for chained any() / has()) where contains() against
   an association proxy chained in the form
   (o2m relationship, associationproxy(m2o relationship, m2o relationship))
   would raise an error regarding the re-application of contains()
   on the final link of the chain.

.. change::
:tags: bug, orm
🎟️ 4153

   Fixed regression caused by new lazyload caching scheme in :ticket:`3954`
   where a query that makes use of loader options with of_type would cause
   lazy loads of unrelated paths to fail with a TypeError.

.. change::
:tags: bug, oracle
🎟️ 4157

   Fixed regression where the removal of most setinputsizes
   rules from cx_Oracle dialect impacted the TIMESTAMP
   datatype's ability to retrieve fractional seconds.

.. change::
:tags: bug, tests

   Removed an oracle-specific requirements rule from the public
   test suite that was interfering with third party dialect
   suites.

.. change::
:tags: bug, mssql
🎟️ 4154

   Fixed regression in 1.2 where newly repaired quoting
   of collation names in :ticket:`3785` breaks SQL Server,
   which explicitly does not understand a quoted collation
   name.   Whether or not mixed-case collation names are
   quoted or not is now deferred down to a dialect-level
   decision so that each dialect can prepare these identifiers
   directly.

.. change::
:tags: bug, orm
🎟️ 4156

   Fixed bug in new "selectin" relationship loader where the loader could try
   to load a non-existent relationship when loading a collection of
   polymorphic objects, where only some of the mappers include that
   relationship, typically when :meth:`.PropComparator.of_type` is being used.

.. change::
:tags: bug, tests

   Added a new exclusion rule group_by_complex_expression
   which disables tests that use "GROUP BY <expr>", which seems
   to be not viable for at least two third party dialects.

.. change::
:tags: bug, oracle

   Fixed regression in Oracle imports where a missing comma caused
   an undefined symbol to be present.  Pull request courtesy
   Miroslav Shubernetskiy.

.. changelog::

1.2.0

:released: December 27, 2017

.. change::
:tags: orm, feature
🎟️ 4137

   Added a new data member to the identity key tuple
   used by the ORM's identity map, known as the
   "identity_token".  This token defaults to None but
   may be used by database sharding schemes to differentiate
   objects in memory with the same primary key that come
   from different databases.   The horizontal sharding
   extension integrates this token applying the shard
   identifier to it, thus allowing primary keys to be
   duplicated across horizontally sharded backends.

   .. seealso::

       :ref:`change_4137`

.. change::
:tags: bug, mysql
🎟️ 4115

   Fixed regression from issue 1.2.0b3 where "MariaDB" version comparison can
   fail for some particular MariaDB version strings under Python 3.

.. change::
:tags: enhancement, sql
🎟️ 959

   Implemented "DELETE..FROM" syntax for Postgresql, MySQL, MS SQL Server
   (as well as within the unsupported Sybase dialect) in a manner similar
   to how "UPDATE..FROM" works.  A DELETE statement that refers to more than
   one table will switch into "multi-table" mode and render the appropriate
   "USING" or multi-table "FROM" clause as understood by the database.
   Pull request courtesy Pieter Mulder.

   .. seealso::

       :ref:`change_959`

.. change::
:tags: bug, sql
🎟️ 2694

  Reworked the new "autoescape" feature introduced in
  :ref:`change_2694` in 1.2.0b2 to be fully automatic; the escape
  character now defaults to a forwards slash ``"/"`` and
  is applied to percent, underscore, as well as the escape
  character itself, for fully automatic escaping.  The
  character can also be changed using the "escape" parameter.

  .. seealso::

       :ref:`change_2694`

.. change::
:tags: bug, sql
🎟️ 4147

   Fixed bug where the :meth:`.Table.tometadata` method would not properly
   accommodate :class:`.Index` objects that didn't consist of simple
   column expressions, such as indexes against a :func:`.text` construct,
   indexes that used SQL expressions or :attr:`.func`, etc.   The routine
   now copies expressions fully to a new :class:`.Index` object while
   substituting all table-bound :class:`.Column` objects for those
   of the target table.

.. change::
:tags: bug, sql
🎟️ 4142

   Changed the "visit name" of :class:`.ColumnElement` from "column" to
   "column_element", so that when this element is used as the basis for a
   user-defined SQL element, it is not assumed to behave like a table-bound
   :class:`.ColumnClause` when processed by various SQL traversal utilities,
   as are commonly used by the ORM.

.. change::
:tags: bug, sql, ext
🎟️ 4141

   Fixed issue in :class:`.ARRAY` datatype which is essentially the same
   issue as that of :ticket:`3832`, except not a regression, where
   column attachment events on top of :class:`.ARRAY` would not fire
   correctly, thus interfering with systems which rely upon this.   A key
   use case that was broken by this is the use of mixins to declare
   columns that make use of :meth:`.MutableList.as_mutable`.

.. change::
:tags: feature, engine
🎟️ 4089

   The "password" attribute of the :class:`.url.URL` object can now be
   any user-defined or user-subclassed string object that responds to the
   Python ``str()`` builtin.   The object passed will be maintained as the
   datamember :attr:`.url.URL.password_original` and will be consulted
   when the :attr:`.url.URL.password` attribute is read to produce the
   string value.

.. change::
:tags: bug, orm
🎟️ 4130

   Fixed bug in :func:`.contains_eager` query option where making use of a
   path that used :meth:`.PropComparator.of_type` to refer to a subclass
   across more than one level of joins would also require that the "alias"
   argument were provided with the same subtype in order to avoid adding
   unwanted FROM clauses to the query; additionally,  using
   :func:`.contains_eager` across subclasses that use :func:`.aliased` objects
   of subclasses as the :meth:`.PropComparator.of_type` argument will also
   render correctly.

.. change::
:tags: feature, postgresql

   Added new :class:`.postgresql.MONEY` datatype.  Pull request courtesy
   Cleber J Santos.

.. change::
:tags: bug, sql
🎟️ 4140

   Fixed bug in new "expanding bind parameter" feature whereby if multiple
   params were used in one statement, the regular expression would not
   match the parameter name correctly.

.. change::
:tags: enhancement, ext
🎟️ 4135

   Added new method :meth:`.baked.Result.with_post_criteria` to baked
   query system, allowing non-SQL-modifying transformations to take place
   after the query has been pulled from the cache.  Among other things,
   this method can be used with :class:`.horizontal_shard.ShardedQuery`
   to set the shard identifier.   :class:`.horizontal_shard.ShardedQuery`
   has also been modified such that its :meth:`.ShardedQuery.get` method
   interacts correctly with that of :class:`.baked.Result`.

.. change::
:tags: bug, oracle
🎟️ 4064

   Added some additional rules to fully handle ``Decimal('Infinity')``,
   ``Decimal('-Infinity')`` values with cx_Oracle numerics when using
   ``asdecimal=True``.

.. change::
:tags: bug, mssql
🎟️ 4121

   Fixed bug where sqltypes.BINARY and sqltypes.VARBINARY datatypes
   would not include correct bound-value handlers for pyodbc,
   which allows the pyodbc.NullParam value to be passed that
   helps with FreeTDS.

.. change::
:tags: feature, misc

   Added a new errors section to the documentation with background
   about common error messages.   Selected exceptions within SQLAlchemy
   will include a link in their string output to the relevant section
   within this page.

.. change::
:tags: bug, orm
🎟️ 4032

   The :meth:`.Query.exists` method will now disable eager loaders for when
   the query is rendered.  Previously, joined-eager load joins would be rendered
   unnecessarily as well as subquery eager load queries would be needlessly
   generated.   The new behavior matches that of the :meth:`.Query.subquery`
   method.

.. changelog::

1.2.0b3

:released: December 27, 2017
:released: October 13, 2017

.. change::
:tags: feature, postgresql
🎟️ 4109

   Added a new flag ``use_batch_mode`` to the psycopg2 dialect.  This flag
   enables the use of psycopg2's ``psycopg2.extras.execute_batch``
   extension when the :class:`.Engine` calls upon
   ``cursor.executemany()``. This extension provides a critical
   performance increase by over an order of magnitude when running INSERT
   statements in batch.  The flag is False by default as it is considered
   to be experimental for now.

   .. seealso::

       :ref:`change_4109`

.. change::
:tags: bug, mssql
🎟️ 4061

   SQL Server supports what SQLAlchemy calls "native boolean"
   with its BIT type, as this type only accepts 0 or 1 and the
   DBAPIs return its value as True/False.   So the SQL Server
   dialects now enable "native boolean" support, in that a
   CHECK constraint is not generated for a :class:`.Boolean`
   datatype.  The only difference vs. other native boolean
   is that there are no "true" / "false" constants so "1" and
   "0" are still rendered here.

.. change::
:tags: bug, oracle
🎟️ 4064

   Partial support for persisting and retrieving the Oracle value
   "infinity" is implemented with cx_Oracle, using Python float values
   only, e.g. ``float("inf")``.  Decimal support is not yet fulfilled by
   the cx_Oracle DBAPI driver.

.. change::
:tags: bug, oracle

   The cx_Oracle dialect has been reworked and modernized to take advantage of
   new patterns that weren't present in the old 4.x series of cx_Oracle. This
   includes that the minimum cx_Oracle version is the 5.x series and that
   cx_Oracle 6.x is now fully tested. The most significant change involves
   type conversions, primarily regarding the numeric / floating point and LOB
   datatypes, making more effective use of cx_Oracle type handling hooks to
   simplify how bind parameter and result data is processed.

   .. seealso::

       :ref:`change_cxoracle_12`

.. change::
:tags: bug, oracle
🎟️ 3997

   two phase support for cx_Oracle has been completely removed for all
   versions of cx_Oracle, whereas in 1.2.0b1 this change only took effect for
   the 6.x series of cx_Oracle.  This feature never worked correctly
   in any version of cx_Oracle and in cx_Oracle 6.x, the API which SQLAlchemy
   relied upon was removed.

   .. seealso::

       :ref:`change_cxoracle_12`

.. change::
:tags: bug, oracle

   The column keys present in a result set when using :meth:`.Insert.returning`
   with the cx_Oracle backend now use the correct column / label names
   like that of all other dialects.  Previously, these came out as
   ``ret_nnn``.

   .. seealso::

       :ref:`change_cxoracle_12`

.. change::
:tags: bug, oracle

   Several parameters to the cx_Oracle dialect are now deprecated and will
   have no effect: ``auto_setinputsizes``, ``exclude_setinputsizes``,
   ``allow_twophase``.

   .. seealso::

       :ref:`change_cxoracle_12`

.. change::
:tags: bug, sql
🎟️ 4075

   Added a new method :meth:`.DefaultExecutionContext.get_current_parameters`
   which is used within a function-based default value generator in
   order to retrieve the current parameters being passed to the statement.
   The new function differs from the
   :attr:`.DefaultExecutionContext.current_parameters` attribute in
   that it also provides for optional grouping of parameters that
   correspond to a multi-valued "insert" construct.  Previously it was not
   possible to identify the subset of parameters that were relevant to
   the function call.

   .. seealso::

       :ref:`change_4075`

       :ref:`context_default_functions`

.. change::
:tags: bug, orm
🎟️ 4050

   Fixed regression introduced in 1.2.0b1 due to :ticket:`3934` where the
   :class:`.Session` would fail to "deactivate" the transaction, if a
   rollback failed (the target issue is when MySQL loses track of a SAVEPOINT).
   This would cause a subsequent call to :meth:`.Session.rollback` to raise
   an error a second time, rather than completing and bringing the
   :class:`.Session` back to ACTIVE.

.. change::
:tags: bug, postgresql
🎟️ 4041

   Fixed bug where the pg8000 driver would fail if using
   :meth:`.MetaData.reflect` with a schema name, since the schema name would
   be sent as a "quoted_name" object that's a string subclass, which pg8000
   doesn't recognize.   The quoted_name type is added to pg8000's
   py_types collection on connect.

.. change::
:tags: bug, postgresql
🎟️ 4016

   Enabled UUID support for the pg8000 driver, which supports native Python
   uuid round trips for this datatype.  Arrays of UUID are still not supported,
   however.

.. change::
:tags: mssql, bug
🎟️ 4057

   Fixed the pymssql dialect so that percent signs in SQL text, such
   as used in modulus expressions or literal textual values, are
   **not** doubled up, as seems to be what pymssql expects.  This is
   despite the fact that the pymssql DBAPI uses the "pyformat" parameter
   style which itself considers the percent sign to be significant.

.. change::
:tags: bug, orm, declarative
🎟️ 4091

   A warning is emitted if a subclass attempts to override an attribute
   that was declared on a superclass using ``declared_attr.cascading``
   that the overridden attribute will be ignored. This use
   case cannot be fully supported down to further subclasses without more
   complex development efforts, so for consistency the "cascading" is
   honored all the way down regardless of overriding attributes.

.. change::
:tags: bug, orm, declarative
🎟️ 4092

   A warning is emitted if the ``declared_attr.cascading`` attribute is
   used with a special declarative name such as ``__tablename__``, as this

   Added ``__next__()`` and ``next()`` methods to :class:`.ResultProxy`,
   so that the ``next()`` builtin function works on the object directly.
   :class:`.ResultProxy` has long had an ``__iter__()`` method which already
   allows it to respond to the ``iter()`` builtin.   The implementation
   for ``__iter__()`` is unchanged, as performance testing has indicated
   that iteration using a ``__next__()`` method with ``StopIteration``
   is about 20% slower in both Python 2.7 and 3.6.

  Removed the warnings that are emitted when the LRU caches employed
  by the mapper as well as loader strategies reach their threshold; the
  purpose of this warning was at first a guard against excess cache keys
  being generated but became basically a check on the "creating many
  engines" antipattern.   While this is still an antipattern, the presense
  of test suites which both create an engine per test as well as raise
  on all warnings will be an inconvenience; it should not be critical
  that such test suites change their architecture just for this warning
  (though engine-per-test suite is always better).

   in the update or delete, if the evaluator can match its name to the
   mapped columns of the target class, a warning is emitted, rather than
   raising UnevaluatableError.  This is essentially the pre-1.2 behavior,
   and is to allow migration for applications that are currently relying
   upon this pattern.  However, if the given attribute name cannot be

   In release 1.1, the :class:`.Boolean` type was broken in that
   boolean coercion via ``bool()`` would occur for backends that did not
   feature "native boolean", but would not occur for native boolean backends,
   meaning the string ``"0"`` now behaved inconsistently. After a poll, a
   consensus was reached that non-boolean values should be raising an error,
   especially in the ambiguous case of string ``"0"``; so the :class:`.Boolean`
   datatype will now raise ``ValueError`` if an incoming value is not
   within the range ``None, True, False, 1, 0``.

   Changed the name of the ``.values`` attribute of the new MySQL

   Added a new class of "rowcount support" for dialects that is specific to
   when "RETURNING", which on SQL Server looks like "OUTPUT inserted", is in
   use, as the PyODBC backend isn't able to give us rowcount on an UPDATE or
   DELETE statement when OUTPUT is in effect.  This primarily affects the ORM
   when a flush is updating a row that contains server-calcluated values,
   raising an error if the backend does not return the expected row count.
   PyODBC now states that it supports rowcount except if OUTPUT.inserted is
   present, which is taken into account by the ORM during a flush as to
   whether it will look for a rowcount.

   Internal refinements to the :class:`.Enum`, :class:`.Interval`, and

   :class:`.Emulated` that indicates a type that provides Python-side
   emulation of a DB native type, switching out to the DB native type when a
   supporting backend is in use.   The Postgresql :class:`.INTERVAL` type
   when used directly will now include the correct type coercion rules for
   SQL expressions that also take effect for :class:`.sqltypes.Interval`
   (such as adding a date to an interval yields a datetime).

   Enabled the "sane_rowcount" flag for the pymssql dialect, indicating

   to preserve the settings of the incoming type on the "resolved" type.
   Currently the target for this is the ``asdecimal`` flag, so that

   Repaired several use cases involving the

   the corresponding object attribute is now expired or refreshed so that
   the newly generated "onupdate" value can populate on the object;
   previously the stale value would remain.  Additionally, if the target
   attribute is set in Python for the INSERT of the object, the value is
   now re-sent during the UPDATE so that the "onupdate" does not overwrite
   it (note this works just as well for server-generated onupdates).

   Fixed bug where programmatic version_id counter in conjunction with
   joined table inheritance would fail if the version_id counter
   were not actually incremented and no other values on the base table
   were modified, as the UPDATE would have an empty SET clause.  Since
   programmatic version_id where version counter is not incremented
   is a documented use case, this specific condition is now detected
   and the UPDATE now sets the version_id value to itself, so that
   concurrency checks still take place.

   Fixed bug where using :class:`.declared_attr` on an

   non-mapped symbol, including ``None``, would cause the attribute
   to hard-evaluate just once and store the value to the object
   dictionary, not allowing it to invoke for subclasses.   This behavior
   is normal when :class:`.declared_attr` is on a mapped class, and
   does not occur on a mixin or abstract class.  Since
   :class:`.AbstractConcreteBase` is both "abstract" and actually
   "mapped", a special exception case is made here so that the
   "abstract" behavior takes precedence for :class:`.declared_attr`.

   Fixed bug where a SQL-oriented Python-side column default could fail to
   be executed properly upon INSERT in the "pre-execute" codepath, if the
   SQL itself were an untyped expression, such as plain text.  The "pre-
   execute" codepath is fairly uncommon however can apply to non-integer
   primary key columns with SQL defaults when RETURNING is not used.

   The expression used for COLLATE as rendered by the column-level
   :func:`.expression.collate` and :meth:`.ColumnOperators.collate` is now
   quoted as an identifier when the name is case sensitive, e.g. has
   uppercase characters.  Note that this does not impact type-level
   collation, which is already quoted.

   The :meth:`.Query.update` method can now accommodate both
   hybrid attributes as well as composite attributes as a source
   of the key to be placed in the SET clause.   For hybrids, an
   additional decorator :meth:`.hybrid_property.update_expression`
   is supplied for which the user supplies a tuple-returning function.

   The :func:`.attributes.flag_modified` function now raises
   :class:`.InvalidRequestError` if the named attribute key is not
   present within the object, as this is assumed to be present
   in the flush process.  To mark an object "dirty" for a flush
   without referring to any specific attribute, the
   :func:`.attributes.flag_dirty` function may be used.
