SQL Compare beta v11.0.0.293 is now available

We've now released the eighth beta of SQL Compare 11 (11.0.0.293), which you can download from the Red Gate website or via Help > Check for Updates if you are currently using a v11 beta.

The full release notes for all versions of SQL Compare v11 are available in this thread.

Features for this version:
This version includes the following features:
• Comparison and deployment of memory-optimized table types
• Backup commands are included in the deployment script
When you select the ‘Back up before deployment’ option in the deployment wizard, the backup commands are now included at the top of the deployment script. This means you can back up the target even if you run the deployment script in Management Studio.
• ‘Do not add error handling statements to deployment scripts’ project option
When you run the deployment script in Management Studio, this option allows the deployment script to fail when an error is encountered. You can only select this option if transactions are not used in deployment scripts. When you deploy directly from SQL Compare, a deployment is always terminated when an error is encountered.

If your deployment includes memory-optimized tables, memory-optimized table types and/or natively compiled stored procedures, you need to:
• make sure that the target database has a memory-optimized filegroup
• turn on the ‘Do not use transactions in deployment scripts’ option

Known issues
• If the ‘Ignore filegroups, partition schemes and partition functions’ option is enabled, the deployment of incremental statistics might fail if they rely on partition schemes or functions which are being ignored
• SQL Compare 11 doesn’t support comparing and deploying backup files (native or SQL Backup) containing memory-optimized tables
