Early technical preview of Microsoft Drivers 4.1.5 for PHP on Windows for SQL Server Released!
Hi all, we are delighted to share the early technical preview of the Microsoft Drivers 4.1.5 for PHP for SQL Server. The new driver enables access to SQL Server, Azure SQL Database and Azure SQL DW from any PHP 7+ application.
The major highlights of this release are:
Added
- Added Unicode Column name support(issue #138).
Fixed
- Fixed issue output parameters bound to empty string (issue #182).
- Fixed issue with SQLSRV_ATTR_FETCHES_NUMERIC_TYPE when column return type is set on statement (issue #173).
Changed
- Code structure is updated to facilitate the development; shared codes between both drivers are moved to "shared" folder to avoid code duplication issues in development. To build the driver from source:
- If you are building the driver from source using PHP source, copy the "shared" folder as a subfolder to both the sqlsrv and pdo_sqlsrv folders.

Is there any agreed date for final release of this driver? It contains few major bug fixes and without them probably we won't be able to use mssql as our database.- Anonymous
