Working only with Ruby < 2.6

[lflucasferreira]

I don't know if this project is still under development, but I believe it could be updated in order to work with to the stable version, I mean 2.6.4.

$ gem install tiny_tds Fetching tiny_tds-2.1.2-x64-mingw32.gem ERROR: Error installing tiny_tds: The last version of tiny_tds (>= 0) to support your Ruby & RubyGems was 2.1.2. Try installing it with gem install tiny_tds -v 2.1.2 tiny_tds requires Ruby version >= 2.0, < 2.6. The current ruby version is 2.6.4.104.

I got tiny_tds working with ruby 2.6.5 on MacOS and CentOS7

I followed the steps described here

It seems like there's a dependency on the freetds package

This only mostly applies to windows, since the gem tries to distribute tiny tds binaries when it's building on mingw based systems. On unix flavors it seems to work fine in 2.6+ as long as the freetds library is available, though the version of the gem that installs is version 2.0.0, which is a tad outdated, be advised. @cshtdd

I have pushed 2.1.3-pre to rubygems for testing. Interested parties should install it & verify it works in ruby 2.6 with their app

2.1.3 has now been released
