IBX Change Log version (1.2-1) Fri, 13 Mar 2015 11:14:15 +0000
|
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
1. A new IBControl - TDBControlGrid has been added. TDBControlGrid a lookalike
|
| 4 |
rather than a clone for the Delphi TDBCrtlGrid. TDBControlGrid is a single column grid
|
| 5 |
that replicates a TWinControl - typically a TPanel or a TFrame in each row. Each row
|
| 6 |
correspondes to a row of the linked DataSource. Any data aware control on the
|
| 7 |
replicated (e.g.) TPanel will then appear to have the appropriate value for the row.
|
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
2. As suggested by Julio Jiménez, a new property "SQLHourGlass" has been added to TIBDatabase.
|
| 10 |
When set to false (default true), the Hour Glass cursor is surpressed and no cursor change
|
| 11 |
takes place during database access. This may be useful when there are performance issues with
|
| 12 |
the change of cursor. Setting the property to false suppresses the change of cursor.
|
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
3. As suggested by Julio Jiménez, a new property "AutoCommit" has been added to TIBDataSet, TIBQuery
|
| 15 |
and TIBTable. When set to acCommitRetaining (Default: acDisabled), a call is made to
|
| 16 |
Transaction.CommitRetaining immediately after every Post or Delete. This has the effect of
|
| 17 |
making all changes permanent immediately rather than when the transaction is explicitly
|
| 18 |
committed.
|
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
4. Experiental support for the Firebird 3 SQL_BOOLEAN type has been added while still
|
| 21 |
using the legacy Firebird API.
|
| 22 |

IBX Change Log version (1.2-0) Thu, 26 Feb 2015 10:34:04 +0000
|
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
1. An internal select SQL Parser is now available for TIBCustomDataset descendents.
|
| 26 |
This is typically used during an "OnBeforeOpen" event handler to manipulate the
|
| 27 |
"Where" and "Having" clauses to implement user specified filters of arbitrary
|
| 28 |
complexity.
|
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
2. A new Component Palette entry "Firebird Data Controls" is now available. This has
|
| 31 |
three new data aware controls dependent on IBX and which make use of the SQL Parser.
|
| 32 |
These are:
|
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
- TIBLookupComboEditBox
|
| 35 |
- TIBDynamicGrid
|
| 36 |
- TIBTreeview
|
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
TIBLookupComboEditBox is a TDBLookupComboBox descendent that implements "autocomplete"
|
| 39 |
of typed in text and "autoinsert" of new entries. Autocomplete uses SQL manipulation
|
| 40 |
to revise the available list and restrict it to items that are prefixed by the
|
| 41 |
typed text (either case sensitive or case insenstive). Autoinsert allows a
|
| 42 |
newly typed entry to be added to the list dataset and included in the available
|
| 43 |
list items.
|
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
TIBDynamicGrid is a TDBGrid descendent that provides for:
|
| 46 |
- automatic resizing of selected columns to fill the available row length
|
| 47 |
- automatic positioning and sizing of a "totals" control, typically at the
|
| 48 |
column footer, on a per column basis.
|
| 49 |
- DataSet resorting on header row click, sorting the dataset by the selected column.
|
| 50 |
A second click on the same header cell reversed the sort order.
|
| 51 |
- Support for a "Panel Editor". That is on clicking the indicator column, the row
|
| 52 |
is automatically expanded and a panel superimposed on it. The panel can have any
|
| 53 |
number of child controls, typically data aware controls with the same datasource
|
| 54 |
as the grid allowing for editing of additional fields and more complex editors.
|
| 55 |
- Reselection of the same row following resorting.
|
| 56 |
- A new cell editor that provides the same functionality as TIBLookupComboEditBox.
|
| 57 |
Its properties are specified on a per column basis and allows for one or more
|
| 58 |
columns to have their values selected from a list provided by a dataset.
|
| 59 |
Autocomplete and autoinsert are also available. The existing picklist editor
|
| 60 |
is unaffected by the extension.
|
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
TIBTreeView is a data aware TCustomTreeView.
|
| 63 |
|
| 64 |
3. When getting a field value using FieldByName.AsVariant, an SQL_INT64 with a
|
| 65 |
zero scale will no longer return an error. An Int64 will be returned instead.
|
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
4. TIBTransaction now has events for Before and After Transaction End and a new function
|
| 68 |
"GetEndAction" allowing the EndAction to be accessed by these event handlers.
|
| 69 |
|
| 70 |
5. TIBQuery can now handle correctly queries which contain the same keyword parameter
|
| 71 |
repeated multiple times.
|
| 72 |
|
| 73 |
6. TIBUpdateSQL will no longer return an error when "RowsAffected" is <> 1. This error
|
| 74 |
check used to get in the way of using Stored Procedures, and "Update or Insert"
|
| 75 |
statements.
|
| 76 |
|
| 77 |
7. Insert, Modify and Delete property Editors now support Query Generation from
|
| 78 |
Stored Procedures.
|
| 79 |
|
| 80 |
8. Three new examples illustrate the use of the new IB Controls
|
| 81 |
|
| 82 |
|
| 83 |
IBX Change Log version (1.1-0) Mon, 07 Jul 2014 14:01:07 +0100
|
| 84 |
|
| 85 |
1. TIBXSQLVAR code clean up and optimisation to improve client side "prepare" and parameter
|
| 86 |
setting performance. See "readme.field+param.names in the doc folder.(Thanks to
|
| 87 |
Gabor Boros for reporting this problem and for testing the improvements).
|
| 88 |
|
| 89 |
2. IBX can now support dialect 3 quoted column names that contain spaces and which differ only in their case.
|
| 90 |
See readme.field+param.names in the doc folder.
|
| 91 |
|
| 92 |
3. IBX SQL Editors will now automatically add double quotes around column names when the database
|
| 93 |
dialect is "3" and the column name contains spaces or is a Firebird 2.5 SQL Reserved Word.
|
| 94 |
|
| 95 |
4. Param Type LargeInt now supported in TIBQuery and TIBStoredProc
|
| 96 |
|
| 97 |
5. TIBSQL.ExecQuery retry on failure removed to avoid problems with "at most once"
|
| 98 |
actions.
|
| 99 |
|
| 100 |
6. TIBTransaction.SetDefaultDatabase uses SetObjectProp instead of mis-using SetOrdProp (with
|
| 101 |
thanks to Yuriy Kopnin for pointing this out).
|
| 102 |
|
| 103 |
7. GenerateParamName is now a published property of TIBSQL, TIBQuery and TIBDataSet.
|
| 104 |
|
| 105 |
8. varWord, varShortInt and varInt64 added to TIBXSQLVAR.SetAsVariant and hence now available as variant types
|
| 106 |
for both fields and parameter setting.
|
| 107 |
|
| 108 |
9. Changes to the Select SQL in an IBCustomDataset descendent should now be
|
| 109 |
visible in the Fields Editor immediately afterwards - rather than only after cycling the "active" property.
|
| 110 |
|
| 111 |
10. TIBSQL SQL editor will operate correctly and not report an SQL syntax error on SQL test,
|
| 112 |
when DSQL ('?') parameter placeholders are used and the TIBSQL.GenerateParamNames property is set to true.
|
| 113 |
|
| 114 |
11. TIBTable now has a property editor for "MasterFields"
|
| 115 |
|
| 116 |
12. SQL Property Editors now include a checkbox "Allow DSQL Placeholder". This corresponds to the
|
| 117 |
GenerateParamNames property and should be set when using DSQL (i.e. '?') style parameters.
|
| 118 |
|
| 119 |
13. The IBTransaction editor now has a radio button ("Unspecified") which is set when the combination
|
| 120 |
of settings is unrecognised. Selecting this radio button has no effect on the settings.
|
| 121 |
|
| 122 |

1. TBookmark change conditional compile changed to >= 2.7.0 to match revised availability of change.
|
| 126 |
|
| 127 |
IBX Change Log version (1.0-4) Thu, 28 Feb 2013 16:56:13 +0000
|
| 128 |
|
| 129 |
1. In a TIBCustomDataset descendent, a generator now only sets the value when
|
| 130 |
it is null. This allows for alternative user defined setting of the generator
|
| 131 |
|
| 132 |
Many thanks to Julio Jiménez for this fix
|
| 133 |
|
| 134 |
2. An Error Dialog is now displayed in the Lazarus IDE if IBX cannot find the Firebird Library
|
| 135 |
and suggests that the user may have forgotten to install it.
|
| 136 |
|
| 137 |
IBX Change Log version (1.0-3) Thu, 22 Nov 2012 22:53:39 +0000
|
| 138 |
|
| 139 |
1. Conditional compilation used to limit registration of TIntegerField to
|
| 140 |
Lazarus versions less than 1.1
|
| 141 |
|
| 142 |
2. When a database connection is created, character set is now by default set
|
| 143 |
to UTF8 (Unix) or to the current Windows code page (Windows) if in the range
|
| 144 |
1250 to 1254.
|
| 145 |
|
| 146 |
|

| 149 |
1. TBookmark change conditional compile changed to > 2.6.2 to match expected availability of change.
|
| 150 |
|
| 151 |
|
| 152 |
IBX Change Log version (1.0-1) Sun, 05 Aug 2012 20:00:04 +0100
|
| 153 |
|
| 154 |
1. In IBCustomDataset. Changed CurBookmark from string to TBookmark for compiler versions > 2.6.0
|
| 155 |
Necessary because of TBookmark type and TDataSet.Bookmark property change in fpc 2.7.1
|
| 156 |
|
| 157 |
2. IBX now registers TIntegerField as a "No Icon" component. This may be removed if the fpc DB
|
| 158 |
package is changed to do this (which it should do).
|
| 159 |
|
| 160 |
IBX Change Log version (1.0-0) Sat, 28 Apr 2012 16:43:00 +0100
|
| 161 |
|
| 162 |
1. Add "if active then active := false" to TIBCustomDataset destructor. (Avoid error on database close).
|
| 163 |
|
| 164 |
2. Make use of $STATIC conditional in IBSQLMonitor (Needed for FPC 2.6.0 compliance)
|
| 165 |
|
| 166 |
3. Database Property Editor: Character Set drop down box now uses "OnChange" rather than "OnCloseUp" to react to changes
|
| 167 |
|
| 168 |
4. Property editors should now correctly resize.
|
| 169 |
|
| 170 |
5. In IBDatabaseEdit.TestClick, the LoginPrompt is now set to the state of the LoginPrompt Checkbox
|
| 171 |
(restored original functionality)
|
| 172 |
|
| 173 |
6. Under OSX, if IBX fails to load libfbclient.dylib, it will now try and load the firebird
|
| 174 |
library using the absolute path /Library/Frameworks/Firebird.framework/Firebird.
