1 + IBX Change Log  version                                 (1.4-1) Tue, 17 May 2016 09:14:51 +0100
2 +
3 + 1. No character set specified for connection: when a text blob is retrieved, the
4 +  character set is determined by looking up the native character set using then
5 +  Firebird API. Otherwise a text mode blob is assumed to have the same character
6 +  set as the connection.
7 +
8 + 2. TIBGUIInterface: this is an internal interface. Minor type changes to allow
9 +   for Login Dialog returing a change to the database path.
10 +
11 + 3. Design Time Database and Server login Dialogs now allow the Database Name/Server Name
12 +   to be changed from that given in the TIBDatabase/TIBServer component and for the
13 +   entered value to be saved on a project specific basis (design time only).
14 +
15 + 4. IBDynamicGrid: TDBLookupCellEditor now compares its DataFieldName with the
16 +   column fieldname. If they are the same then it is acts as a look up for the KeyValue
17 +   Otherwise, it sets the column text to the selected ListField Value.
18 +
19 + 5. IBDynamicGrid: Only visible columns are now taken into account When recalculating
20 +   column width.
21 +
22 + 6. IBLookupComboEditBox: Fix error with autocomplete query when a RelationName is given
23 +   and a case insensitive search is requested.
24 +
25 + 7. IBDynamicGrid: No longer ignores notifications removing Column Totals controls
26 +   or column ListSource.
27 +
28 + 8. IBQuery: no longer performs unnecessary refresh of SQL Text (and hence avoids an
29 +   unprepare) when closing and the text has not changed.
30 +
31 + 9. IBSQL: Base the cursor name on a GUID instead of a hexstr version of the class pointer.
32 +   Less likely to cause a cursor re-use error on Windows.
33 +
34 + 10.SV5IPC: include workaround for OSX. FPC 3.0.0 has broken ipc module for darwin.
35 +   Expected to be fixed in 3.0.2. Hence workaround only applies to 3.0.0.
36 +
37 + 11. TIBTreeView: Guard against nil destination on record changed
38 +
39 + 12. AnsiString Code page support: TIBStringField.AsString and TIBMemoField.AsString now return a
40 +    string type with the code page set to reflect the returned field encoding after
41 +    Firebird driver transliteration, if any.  FPC 3.0.0 onwards only. Behaviour unchanged for
42 +    earlier versions.
43 +
44 + 13. AnsiString Code page support: Assigning to TIBStringField.AsString and TIBMemoField.AsString
45 +    will now result in transliteration to the code page specified for the Firebird driver
46 +    if the assigned string has a different code page. FPC 3.0.0 onwards only.
47 +
48 + 14. TIBDatabase: new property UseDefaultSystemCodePage. When set any lc_ctype parameter
49 +    is ignored and the lc_ctype value, when the database is opened, is set to align with
50 +    the DefaultSystemCodePage (FPC 3.0.0 onwards). Normally, this is what you want and should ensure
51 +    platform independence. Note: this applies to FPC 3.0.0 and earlier versions. Pre FPC
52 +    3.0.0, when this property is true, the lc_ctype is UTF8 except under windows when
53 +    the GETACP is used to determine the Windows code page.
54 +
55 + 15. TIBDatabase: new property DefaultCharSetName. This is the Firebird character set
56 +    name used as the lc_ctype when the database was opened. Only valid while the
57 +    Database is connected.
58 +
59 + 16. TIBDatabase: new property DefaultCodePage (FPC >=3.0.0 only). This is the codepage
60 +    id that corresponds to the DefaultCharSetName.
61 +
62 + IBX Change Log  version                          (1.4-0) Mon, 15 Feb 2016 14:44:24 +0000
63 +
64 + 1. Unix: If Firebird Embedded Server shared object is loaded and a local database
65 +   path is given and database attach fails due to access permission issues on the
66 +   temp directory or security database, then the attach is retried with "localhost:"
67 +   prefixing the databasename. This should avoid problems when the database has to
68 +   be accessed by a local (e.g. classic) server and libfbembed is used.
69 +
70 + 2. Windows: revised search order for Firebird DLL:
71 +     i.   The Firebird Embedded Server in the application Directory.
72 +     ii.  If the FIREBIRD environment variable is set then the directory this
73 +          points to is searched for the FB Client DLL and then then underlying
74 +          "bin" directory.
75 +     iii. Registry Key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Firebird Project\Firebird Server\Instances
76 +          is used to locate the Firebird installation directory and the underlying
77 +          "bin" directory is searched for the FB Client DLL.
78 +     iv.  The Default installation directories C:\Program Files\Firebird\Firebird_2_x
79 +          are searched for the FB Client DLL.
80 +     v.   The PATH Environment variable is used to search for the FB Client DLL.
81 +     vi.  Finally the  PATH Environment variable is used to search for IBASE.DLL.
82 +
83 + 3. New Component: TIBXScript. This is an ISQL compatible SQL script execution engine.
84 +   See doc/readme.scriptengine and example applications.
85 +
86 + 4. New Component: TIBlocalDBSupport. This is a TIBDatabase support component intended to
87 +   simplify the use of the embedded firebird server on both Linux and Windows platforms.
88 +   See dpc/readme.localdatabase and example applications.
89 +
90 + 5. IBDynamicGrid: Reordering on column header click should now also work for
91 +   dynamic columns.
92 +
93 + 6. ISQLMonitor: (Windows only). Mutex added to TMultilockGate to avoid race condition
94 +   between incrementing/decrementing the lock count and signalling the event.
95 +
96 + IBX Change Log  version           (1.3-2) Tue, 26 Jan 2016 14:39:54 +0000
97 +
98 + 1.3.2 was never formally released and only made available as beta copies.
99 +
100 + 1. DBControlGrid,IBDynamicGrid: Ignore down arrow and up arrow in TCustomMemo
101 +
102 + 2. IBDynamicGrid: Now deals correctly with a single column grid which has no indicator and autosize column
103 +
104 + 3. IBLookupComboEditBox: reset timer on each key press - avoids timer going off too early
105 +
106 + 4. IBDynamicGrid: Call event OnUpdateSortOrder even when aliasname not found in dataset
107 +   i.e. when it is a calculated field
108 +
109 + 5. IBDynamicGrid: Fix problem selecting a different row when expanded row at end of grid.
110 +   This problem was due to a race condition between recalculating row heights and
111 +   determining which row was selected by the mouse click. The row height calculation
112 +   is now deferred by an extra trip round the message loop allowing the row to
113 +   be always calculated on the current grid layout rather than risking it being
114 +   calculated on the grid layout after the expanded row has been shrunk.
115 +
116 + 6. IBLookupComboEditBox: avoid race condition between cm_killfocus and cm_exit on
117 +   Windows.
118 +
119 + 7. TIBStringField: Now has two new public properties: CharacterSetName: string and CharacterSetSize: integer;
120 +   These properties allow the (Firebird) character set name for the field and the max number of bytes per character
121 +   to be determined at runtime. See doc/readme.charactersets.html.
122 +
123 + 8. TIBWideStringField: This is a new field type with the same additional public properties as above and subclassed from
124 +   TWideStringField. This field type is used with the character size reported by Firebird is two. See doc/readme.charactersets.html.
125 +
126 + 9. TIBMemoField and TIBWideMemoField: new field types with the same additional public properties as above and subclassed from
127 +   TMemoField and TWideMemoField respectively. These field types are used with Blob subtype 1 and a characterset size of
128 +   1, 3 or 4 (TIBMemoField) or 2 (TIBWideMemoField). See doc/readme.charactersets.html.
129 +
130 +   Both also have a new published property "DisplayTextAsClassName". If false (default) the displaytext is generated
131 +   from the blob text by truncating the string to the displaywidth (in characters not bytes). A displaywidth of zero
132 +   implies no truncation.
133 +
134 + 10. IBLookupComboEditBox: Force autocomplete when EditingDone called and timer active.
135 +
136 + 11. IBDynamicGrid: Call DataSet.Append when entering edit mode and dataset empty and not in insert state
137 +   (avoids "Not in Edit Mode" error).
138 +
139 + 12. IBDynamicGrid: Correctly resize grid when one column width plus indicator.
140 +
141 + 13. IBDynamicGrid: Ensure Editor Panel has focus when shown - avoids Windows API calling
142 +    DBGrid.DoExit on subsequent mouse click (e.g. on child control such as a tabbed page control.
143 +
144 + 14. IBDynamicGrid: ignore up, down tab and return when editorpanel open and focus in a TCustomGrid descendent.
145 +
146 + 15. DBControlGrid: Stop flashing grid when dataset closed and then re-opened while DisabledControls
147 +
148 + 16. IBQuery: Bug fixed that prevented SQL being set programmatically once the Parser had been invoked.
149 +
150 + 17. IBCustomDataSet: On close, parser is now freed and Select SQL reverts to value before DataSet Opened.
151 +
152 + IBX Change Log  version        (1.3-1) Sat, 18 Jul 2015 13:30:50 +0100
153 +
154 + 1.   OnCloseUp Event Handler added to TDBLookupProperties
155 +
156 + 2.   IBDynamicGrid: Call to OnEditorPanelHide is now last editor hide action - avoids
157 +     problem with row size when exception is called.
158 +
159 + 3.   IBLookupComboEditBox: Force pending autocomplete on combobox exit.
160 +
161 + 4.   IBDynamicGrid and DBControlGrid: Keyhandler now ignores up, down, escape and return keys if
162 +     in a TCustomComboBox and ignores return key if in a TCustomMemo
163 +
164 + 5.   IBLookupComboEditBox: Ensure that KeyValue is set correctly when full text
165 +     keyed in i.e. when autocomplete not performed
166 +
167 + 6.   Cleanup of "Uses" clauses and add console mode support. IBX should now support
168 +     console mode applications with all LCL required functions (builtin dialogs and
169 +     cursor management) centralised in the  IBDialogs unit. As long as "IBDialogs" is
170 +     not included in your project, IBX should compile and link with a console mode program.
171 +     See consolemode example and its "readme"for further guidence. DO NOT add the ibexpress package to a
172 +     console mode application or the IDE will automatically assume that your
173 +     application is GUI based. Instead, you should include the ibexpressconsolemode package.
174 +
175 +     IMPORTANT NOTE: IBDialogs must be included in GUI applications in order
176 +     to use the built in dialogs and cursor management. IBDialogs is
177 +     included by default if "ibexpress" is in your project source's "uses" clause.
178 +     This should be the case for all projects created through the IDE. This is why
179 +     you do not want to add the ibexpress package to console mode applications. The
180 +     ibexpressconsolemode package has been created to allow console mode programs
181 +     to avoid adding LCL dependencies when using IBX, while still having the
182 +     unit search paths set up correctly.
183 +
184 +     Existing users should check to ensure that the "ibexpress" unit is included in
185 +     each project's source file (*.lpr).
186 +
187 +     You may find that in order for the IDE to recognise that ibexpressconsolemode
188 +     exists, you have to first open the package in the IDE and then close it. This
189 +     adds it to the most recently accessed packages list. To make it permanently
190 +     available, add the package name to lazarus' staticpackages.inc file.
191 +
192 +         Thanks to Julio Jiménez for suggesting support of console mode.
193 +
194 + 7.   SQL Parser can now accept quoted strings that include new lines
195 +
196 + 8.   IBDynamicGrid: Lookup Cell Editor - the cursor is now positioned at end
197 +     of text on start of edit. This is particularly useful when tabbing to a
198 +     column and then inserting text.
199 +
200 + 9.   New Examples provided for IB Services and ISQLMonitor.
201 +
202 + 10. Fix error when writing to blob streams that recorded only the last buffer
203 +    write in the blob stream. In most cases, this did not cause a problem as the
204 +    IB Blob Stream is written in a single write. However, with the TDBImage, write
205 +    of a graphic type prefix was lost which caused a problem when the image could
206 +        not be automatically recognised.
207 +
208 + 11. Improve generation of random cursor names in TIBSQL - avoid risk of "cursor
209 +    already open" errors due to random numbers used for the cursor name being identical.
210 +
211 + 12. IBTable: corrected error that could result in an "Index out of bounds" error
212 +    when opening the table and the Primary Key is the last or only column in the
213 +    table. Thanks to Rick Hoover for the fix.
214 +
215 + 13. Fix TIBDatabase initialisation of lc_ctype under unix. Set to "UTF8" instead
216 +    of "UTF-8", and update list of available database character sets. Existing
217 +    users should check the current lc_ctype setting in their applications.
218 +
219 + IBX Change Log  version  (1.2-4) Sat, 09 May 2015 12:38:29 +0100
220 +
221 + 1.  Firebird Services: avoid List Index error when opening a service with an
222 +    empty Params property.
223 +
224 + 2.  IBControls: Fix problem with new link mechanism introduced in 1.2.3.
225 +    Link now set up in Loaded method - avoids occasional failure to apply
226 +    SQL markup on initial open.
227 +
228 + 3.  "Employees" example performance improvements when scrolling.
229 +
230 + 4.  DBControlGrid: Correctly handle edit panel removal when panel is child control of a
231 +    TFrame. Force recaching of selected frame to avoid GTK race (results in a
232 +    random image cached).
233 +
234 + 5.  DBControlGrid: Should now react to changes in panel height at run time.
235 +
236 + 6.  IBDynamicGrid: Redraws rows below on panel editor hide - avoids blank space at end of grid  
237 +    even when further rows exist.
238 +
239 + 7.  DBControlGrid: DefaultRowHeight is no longer a published property as it should
240 +    always be derived from panel height and setting this property can cause confusion.
241 +    Note for existing projects: to avoid a missing property error at run time,
242 +    each form using the DBControlGrid must be opened, updated and saved in the IDE
243 +    in order to remove the property value from the lfm.
244 +
245 +
246 + IBX Change Log  version (1.2-3) Tue, 14 Apr 2015 14:11:17 +0100
247 +
248 + 1.  TIBStoredProc. Prepare now called by ParamByName to avoid need to always
249 +    call Prepare before setting parameter values.
250 +
251 + 2.  Error message on ParamByName (all cases) not found now includes name of missing parameter.
252 +
253 + 3.  Code tidyup and more robust handling of dsql information result vector.
254 +
255 + 4.  Support for centralised handling of transaction status changes. TIBTransaction
256 +    has been given additional events "AfterEdit", "AfterInsert", "AfterDelete", "AfterPost"
257 +    and "AfterExecQuery". The first three are called after the same event is called
258 +    for an IBCustomDataSet descendent using the Transaction. The fourth is called
259 +    after a call to TIBSQL.ExecQuery, again using this transaction. These new events
260 +    enable monitoring of transaction status changes for a given transaction to be
261 +    handled in a single place. For example, when a change to the dataset occurs
262 +    an indicator can be set that shows the user that in order to save changes,
263 +    the transaction should be committed.  Rather than doing this per dataset, this
264 +    can now be done per transaction.
265 +
266 + 5.  TDataSet.CheckBrowseMode automatically posts changes to the current row when
267 +    the dataset is scrolled. However, any changes to the current row are, by default,
268 +    discarded when the dataset is closed. TIBDataSet, TIBQuery and TIBTable now
269 +    have a new property "DataSetCloseAction" that adds automatic posting of changes
270 +    on dataset close. If this property is set to dcDiscardChanges (default) then the
271 +    behaviour is unchanged from previous versions. if the value is set to dcSaveChanges
272 +    then IBX will attempt to post any unsaved changes before the dataset is closed
273 +    (and after the BeforeClose event handler is called). The exception is when the
274 +    dataset is being closed as a result of a transaction rollback. In this case,
275 +    no action is taken and any unsaved  changes are discarded. This avoids both
276 +    unnecessary overhead and the risk that a validation error may occur in the Post
277 +    raising an exception and thereby preventing a rollback.
278 +
279 + 6.  String Field sizes and Display Widths should now be correct for multi-byte character sets.
280 +    In earlier versions, the Display Width was set to the maximum byte width rather than the character
281 +    width. Display Widths are now corrected by dividing by the max byte width per character.
282 +    For UTF8 character sets, the byte width is four and hence the Display Width will be
283 +    the byte width divided by 4. The byte width of each character set is determined
284 +    dynamically when the database connection is estabished from the RDB$CHARACTER_SETS
285 +    system table. (see also http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=27766).
286 +
287 + 7.  SQLParser will now correctly parse SQL Text which contains ':' within quoted string.
288 +
289 + 8.  IBLookupComboEditBox: List should now always be restored to full list when the
290 +    control loses focus. Default Key press default interval reduced to 200ms.
291 +
292 + 9.  DBControlGrid: Ensure that selection is changed to newly appended row, even
293 +    when dataset rows are less than visible rows.
294 +
295 + 10. IBDynamicGrid: Editor Panel is not shown on indicator click if Datasource
296 +    does not exist or DataSet is empty. More responsive on dataset open. New event
297 +    OnRestorePosition. Column sort disabled if no header row.
298 +
299 + 11. IBTreeView: improved handling of response to "Add Node". Avoid scrolling dataset
300 +    while dataset state is dsInsert. Avoids posting errors.
301 +
302 + 12. IBControls: New mechanism for distributing UpdateSQL and UpdateParams events. This is to
303 +    avoid conflict with DisableControls/EnableControls with Master/Detail linked tables.
304 +
305 + 13. IBLookupComboEditBox: Now avoids SQL Errors when combo box text contains single quotes.
306 +
307 + 14. TIBDataSet and TIBQuery: new Event - OnValidatePost. This event has been introduced
308 +    to solve a specific problem. That is when the dataset cursor is moved (e.g. by
309 +    a grid mouse click and the current row is being edited or inserted. In this case, TDataset
310 +    always "posts" the current record regardless or whether or not it may be more appropriate
311 +    to cancel any changes; the post occurs before the "BeforeScroll" event fires due to the way the
312 +    "MoveBy" function is implemented by TDataSet. The OnValidatePost event is called
313 +    as the first action of the "Post" method and allows the handler to convert the Post
314 +    into a Cancel if that is the appropriate action on moving to a different row. This is
315 +    achieved by returning with "CancelPost" argument set to true. Note that an exception could be
316 +    raised here, but it may still be more appropriate to validate a post and signal
317 +    a problem in the "BeforePost" event handler. See readme.automaticposts.xhtml)
318 +
319 + 15. On Unix derived systems, the Firebird library name can now be given as a colon
320 +    separated list. Each library name on the list is tried in turn, in left to right
321 +    order with the first found being used as the firebird library. By default, on Linux,
322 +    the library name list is 'libfbembed.so.2.5:libfbembed.so.2.1:libfbclient.so.2'. This can be
323 +    overidden by the FBLIB environment variable or the OnGetLibraryName function.
324 +
325 +    Note: when using the libfbembed.so, if you prefix the database name with "localhost:"
326 +    then it will still attempt to access the database via the Firebird Server and will
327 +    require a username and password. If only the pathname is given, then the username
328 +    and password should be omitted and the unix file permissions are used to grant
329 +    access.
330 +
331 + IBX Change Log  version  (1.2-2) Sat, 14 Mar 2015 11:35:04 +0000
332 +
333 + 1.  A new IBControl - TDBControlGrid has been added. TDBControlGrid a lookalike
334 +    rather than a clone for the Delphi TDBCrtlGrid. TDBControlGrid is a single column grid
335 +    that replicates a TWinControl - typically a TPanel or a TFrame in each row. Each row
336 +    corresponds to a row of the linked DataSource. Any data aware control on the
337 +    replicated (e.g.) TPanel will then appear to have the appropriate value for the row.
338 +
339 + 2. As suggested by Julio Jiménez, a new property "SQLHourGlass" has been added to TIBDatabase.
340 +   When set to false (default true), the Hour Glass cursor is supcpressed and no cursor change
341 +   takes place during database access. This may be useful when there are performance issues with
342 +   the change of cursor. Setting the property to false suppresses the change of cursor.
343 +
344 + 3. As suggested by Julio Jiménez, a new property "AutoCommit" has been added to TIBDataSet, TIBQuery
345 +   and TIBTable. When set to acCommitRetaining (Default: acDisabled), a call is made to
346 +   Transaction.CommitRetaining immediately after every Post or Delete. This has the effect of
347 +   making all changes permanent immediately rather than when the transaction is explicitly
348 +   committed.
349 +
350 + 4. Experimental support for the Firebird 3 SQL_BOOLEAN type has been added while still
351 +   using the legacy Firebird API. Thanks to Gabor Boros for helping to test this feature.
352 +
353 + IBX Change Log  version      (1.2-1) Fri, 13 Mar 2015 11:14:15 +0000
354 +
355 + Development version only.
356 +
357 + IBX Change Log  version   (1.2-0) Thu, 26 Feb 2015 10:34:04 +0000
358 +
359 + 1. An internal select SQL Parser is now available for TIBCustomDataset descendents.
360 +   This is typically used during an "OnBeforeOpen" event handler to manipulate the
361 +   "Where" and "Having" clauses to implement user specified filters of arbitrary
362 +   complexity.
363 +
364 + 2. A new Component Palette entry "Firebird Data Controls" is now available. This has
365 +   three new data aware controls dependent on IBX and which make use of the SQL Parser.
366 +   These are:
367 +
368 +   - TIBLookupComboEditBox
369 +   - TIBDynamicGrid
370 +   - TIBTreeview
371 +
372 +   TIBLookupComboEditBox is a TDBLookupComboBox descendent that implements "autocomplete"
373 +   of typed in text and "autoinsert" of new entries. Autocomplete uses SQL manipulation
374 +   to revise the available list and restrict it to items that are prefixed by the
375 +   typed text (either case sensitive or case insensitive). Autoinsert allows a
376 +   newly typed entry to be added to the list dataset and included in the available
377 +   list items.
378 +
379 +   TIBDynamicGrid is a TDBGrid descendent that provides for:
380 +   - automatic resizing of selected columns to fill the available row length
381 +   - automatic positioning and sizing of a "totals" control, typically at the
382 +     column footer, on a per column basis.
383 +   - DataSet resorting on header row click, sorting the dataset by the selected column.
384 +     A second click on the same header cell reversed the sort order.
385 +   - Support for a "Panel Editor". That is on clicking the indicator column, the row
386 +     is automatically expanded and a panel superimposed on it. The panel can have any
387 +     number of child controls, typically data aware controls with the same datasource
388 +     as the grid allowing for editing of additional fields and more complex editors.
389 +   - Reselection of the same row following resorting.
390 +   - A new cell editor that provides the same functionality as TIBLookupComboEditBox.
391 +     Its properties are specified on a per column basis and allows for one or more
392 +     columns to have their values selected from a list provided by a dataset.
393 +     Autocomplete and autoinsert are also available. The existing picklist editor
394 +     is unaffected by the extension.
395 +
396 +   TIBTreeView is a data aware TCustomTreeView.
397 +
398 + 3. When getting a field value using FieldByName.AsVariant, an SQL_INT64 with a
399 +   zero scale will no longer return an error. An Int64 will be returned instead.
400 +
401 + 4. TIBTransaction now has events for Before and After Transaction End and a new function
402 +   "GetEndAction" allowing the EndAction to be accessed by these event handlers.
403 +
404 + 5. TIBQuery can now handle correctly queries which contain the same keyword parameter
405 +   repeated multiple times.
406 +
407 + 6. TIBUpdateSQL will no longer return an error when "RowsAffected" is <> 1. This error
408 +   check used to get in the way of using Stored Procedures, and "Update or Insert"
409 +   statements.
410 +
411 + 7. Insert, Modify and Delete property Editors now support Query Generation from
412 +   Stored Procedures.
413 +
414 + 8. Three new examples illustrate the use of the new IB Controls
415 +

417 + IBX Change Log  version  (1.1-0) Mon, 07 Jul 2014 14:01:07 +0100
418 +
419 + 1. TIBXSQLVAR code clean up and optimisation to improve client side "prepare" and parameter
420 +   setting performance. See "readme.field+param.names in the doc folder.(Thanks to
421 +   Gabor Boros for reporting this problem and for testing the improvements).
422 +
423 + 2. IBX can now support dialect 3 quoted column names that contain spaces and which differ only in their case.
424 +   See readme.field+param.names in the doc folder.
425 +
426 + 3. IBX SQL Editors will now automatically add double quotes around column names when the database
427 +   dialect is "3" and the column name contains spaces or is a Firebird 2.5 SQL Reserved Word.
428 +
429 + 4. Param Type LargeInt now supported in TIBQuery and TIBStoredProc
430 +
431 + 5. TIBSQL.ExecQuery retry on failure removed to avoid problems with "at most once"
432 +   actions.
433 +
434 + 6. TIBTransaction.SetDefaultDatabase uses SetObjectProp instead of mis-using SetOrdProp (with
435 +   thanks to Yuriy Kopnin for pointing this out).
436 +
437 + 7. GenerateParamName is now a published property of TIBSQL, TIBQuery and TIBDataSet.
438 +
439 + 8. varWord, varShortInt and varInt64 added to TIBXSQLVAR.SetAsVariant and hence now available as variant types
440 +   for both fields and parameter setting.
441 +
442 + 9. Changes to the Select SQL in an IBCustomDataset descendent should now be
443 +   visible in the Fields Editor immediately afterwards - rather than only after cycling the "active" property.
444 +
445 + 10. TIBSQL SQL editor will operate correctly and not report an SQL syntax error on SQL test,
446 +    when DSQL ('?') parameter placeholders are used and the TIBSQL.GenerateParamNames property is set to true.
447 +
448 + 11. TIBTable now has a property editor for "MasterFields"
449 +
450 + 12. SQL Property Editors now include a checkbox "Allow DSQL Placeholder". This corresponds to the
451 +    GenerateParamNames property and should be set when using DSQL (i.e. '?') style parameters.
452 +
453 + 13. The IBTransaction editor now has a radio button ("Unspecified") which is set when the combination
454 +    of settings is unrecognised. Selecting this radio button has no effect on the settings.
455 +

462 +
463 + 1. In a TIBCustomDataset descendent, a generator now only sets the value when
464 +   it is null. This allows for alternative user defined setting of the generator
465 +
466 +   Many thanks to Julio Jiménez for this fix
467 +
468 + 2. An Error Dialog is now displayed in the Lazarus IDE if IBX cannot find the Firebird Library
469 +   and suggests that the user may have forgotten to install it.
470 +

472 +
473 + 1. Conditional compilation used to limit registration of TIntegerField to
474 +   Lazarus versions less than 1.1
475 +
476 + 2. When a database connection is created, character set is now by default set
477 +   to UTF8 (Unix) or to the current Windows code page (Windows) if in the range
478 +   1250 to 1254.
479 +
480 +
