Version 2025.2.15
- Including 
role_create_table in drop_table for
PostgreSQL. 
Version 2024.10.25
role_create_table is now included for
dbconnection_v9/dbtable_v9, so that the role can be changed when
creating tables in PostgreSQL. 
Version 2024.3.27
- csdb now supports PostgreSQL databases as well as MS SQL
Server.
 
Version 2024.3.11
- Including use_count as an argument in nrow in DBTable_v9, which is
slower but more accurate.
 
Version 2024.3.7
- Including confirm_insert_via_nrow in DBTable_v9. Checks nrow()
before insert and after insert. If nrow() has not increased
sufficiently, then attempt an upsert.
 
Version 2023.12.28
- Including validator_field_types_csfmt_rts_data_v2 and
validator_field_contents_csfmt_rts_data_v2.

Version 2023.4.12
get_table_names_and_nrow is now changed to
get_table_names_and_info and also includes size_total_gb,
size_data_gb, size_index_gb. 
info is now included as a method for
DBTable_v9 
Version 2023.4.4
confirm_indexes is now added to
DBTable_v9, which confirms that the names and number of
indexes in the database are the same as in the R code. It does not
confirm the contents of the indexes! 
nrow is now added to DBTable_v9, which is
an application of the new get_table_names_and_nrow
function. 
get_table_names_and_nrow added as an exported function,
that will get all the table names and the nrows from a
dbconnection. 
Version 2023.4.2
create_table now automatically adds the indexes. 
Version 2023.3.31
- Removing info messages from 
drop_rows_where. 
Version 2023.3.8
- connect() in DBConnection_v9 is smarter, more robust with error
checking and making fewer useless calls to the db. Tries to connect
twice now before throwing an error.
 
- autoconnection is now more robust in DBConnection_v9.
