Quality and reliability improvements

  • For SQL

    Exceptions may be thrown in SqlClient during prelogin handshake processing or during MARS communication when a received TDS packet's size is smaller than expected. Prelogin handshake errors will occur as an OverflowException, and MARS errors occur as a generic "Physical connection is not usable" SqlException.

  • For WPF

    A WPF application with a virtualizing list control (for example, a ListBox, DataGrid, or TreeView) may encounter an ArgumentNullException error when you scroll to an item whose size has substantially decreased since the last time it was revirtualized.

  • For ASP.NET

    In the following scenarios, ASP.NET may duplicate the cookie in response headers:
    • Before a request cookie is loaded, the response cookie is added.
    • A response cookie is added, and then a native module sets the response cookie.

    With the fix, ASP.NET makes sure that response cookies are not duplicated.
