CHANGES

Sun May 23 12:35:19 EDT 2004

Changed deduceType() to return the value too, as it may be changed inside, and to handle empty string ('') as a string.

Wed Apr 14 11:06:28 EDT 2004

Made basic data type determination work for both scalars and scalarrefs.

Now we check if we are sending a recordset and setting column types accordingly.

Sat Mar 13 16:25:00 EST 2004

Patch from Tilghman Lesher that detects numbers and dates in strings and sets return type accordingly.

Patch from Kostas Chatzikokolakis handling encoding and sending null value.

Sun May 11 16:43:05 EDT 2003

Changed writeData to set type to "NULL" when the incoming data is undef. Previously it became a String, just like other scalars.

Changed PHP's writeRecordset to a generic writeAMFObject. Verified Recordset support.

Function writeObject should return the same as writeHash. This assumes that all meaningful data are stored as hash keys.
