Fix RouteInfoCommenter file name.
Adobe has ended support for ACF 2016, and so must we.
CFML's uuid does not match other languages; it's one character shorter. Because of this, the value from createUUID() cannot be used in some database column types like SQL Server's uniqueidentifier. This made for some confusion in SchemaBuilder since it wasn't clear if uuid meant CFML's definition or the wider world's definition.
So, the types have been split, following Lucee's pattern, into uuid (matching CFML's createUUID()) and guid (matching Java's UUID or createGUID() on Lucee).
Popular grid frameworks like Quasar and Datatables use values of 0 or -1 to return all rows from a query. This is now supported in qb. Previously, it generated an invalid query (SELECT * FROM users LIMIT 0 OFFSET 0).
This behavior can be customized by providing a callback to the shouldMaxRowsOverrideToAll setting or init argument. For instance, to revert to the previous behavior you would set the function as follows:
autoDeriveNumericType is now the defaultIntroduced in 8.10.0, this feature uses separate SQL types for integers and decimals to increase performance in certain database grammars. This feature is now the default, but the previous behavior can be enabled by setting autoDeriveNumericType to false.
Note: the option to revert to the old behavior will be removed in the next major version.
strictDateDetection is now the defaultIntroduced in 8.1.0, this feature only returns a SQL type of CF_SQL_TIMESTAMP if the param is a date object, not just a string that looks like a date. This helps avoid situations where some strings were incorrectly interpreted as dates. For many, the migration path is straightforward — calls to now() are already date objects as well as any function that operates on a date. If you need to parse a string as a date, the parseDateTime built-in function can accomplish that.
Note: the option to revert to the old behavior may be removed in the next major version.
Thanks to Jason Steinhouer, qb now supports SQLite for both QueryBuilder and SchemaBuilder. You can use it in your apps by specifying SQLiteGrammar@qb as the default grammar.
sqlCommenter is a specification by Google for adding contextual information as a comment at the end of a SQL statement. This can give insights into your application, especially when diagnosing slow queries. Examples of the information you can append to your queries are route, handler, action, version, and others, as well as the ability to add your own, such as loggedInUser and more.
There's a new shortcut method to return qb.sum( qb.raw( expression ) ). You're welcome. 😉
dropIndex methodSome grammars, like SQL Server, do not treat simple indexes as constraints. For this reason, we've added a dropIndex method alongside the existing dropConstraint.
columnList helper methodcolumnList will return either an array of column names for the configured table or the query that is generated by cfdbinfo for the configured table. Especially useful when working with dynamically generated grids.
Correctly compile insertUsing statements that use Common Table Expressions (CTEs).

There are now specific numeric SQL types for integers and decimals used during the inferSQLType check in QueryUtils. This is an opt-in feature, enabled by setting the autoDeriveNumericType setting. The previous approach was to use CF_SQL_NUMERIC for all numeric types which could cause performance issues in some grammars as they interpreted all CF_SQL_NUMERIC as floating point numbers.
HOLDLOCK and READPAST are mutually exclusive table locks in SQL Server but were mistakenly being applied together.
Specify defaultOptions inside of your ColdBox config.

Add a clearOrders method. Any already configured orders are cleared. Any orders added after this call will be added as normal.
selectRaw now can take an array of expressions.
Fixed an issue using column formatters with update and insert.
Using a new preventDuplicateJoins setting in the module settings, qb can detect duplicate joins and ignore them. This is especially useful in a heavily filtered and dynamic query where you may or may not need the join at all or more than one column may need the same join. preventDuplicateJoins defaults to false, so it is opt-in. It may be turned on by default in a future breaking release of qb.
Enhance order by's with more direction options (c767ac8)
You can now use two shortcut methods: orderByAsc and orderByDesc. Additionally, orderBySub or using orderBy with a closure or builder instance will respect the direction argument.

Allow a parent query to be set. A parent query will receive any method calls that are not found on the Query Builder instance. This is especially useful for instances like Quick to allow Quick features like scopes to be available inside any closures.
Lambdas (arrow functions) are now allowed wherever closures are allowed.
Add an orderByRaw method.
Please see the Migration Guide for more information on these changes.
Drop support for Lucee 4.5 and Adobe ColdFusion 11.
MSSQLGrammar renamed to SqlServerGrammar
Remove variadic parameters support in builder functions like select.
The defaultGrammar mapping needs to be the full WireBox mapping, including the @qb, if needed.
For instance, MSSQLGrammar would become MSSQLGrammar@qb.
This will allow for other grammars to be more easily contributed via third party modules.
The argument names of forPage changed to match the new paginate method.
Add defaultValue and optional exception throwing to value. (This changed the argument order.)
