- Added support for *USING* in ``join()``.
- Changed ``limit()`` to ignore NULL values instead of always casting to integer.
- Changed ``offset()`` to ignore empty values instead of always casting to integer.
+ - Methods ``insert_batch()`` and ``update_batch()`` now return an integer representing the number of rows affected by them.
- Improved support for the MySQLi driver, including:
- OOP style of the PHP extension is now used, instead of the procedural aliases.
