1 FBINTF Change Log version (1.1-1) Tue, 16 Jan 2018 16:49:37 +0000
2
3 1. IBUtils.QuoteIdentifierIfNeeded: Add check for space character.
4
5 2. IAttachment: add two new methods
6 function HasDefaultCharSet: boolean;
7 function GetDefaultCharSetID: integer;
8
9 These return, respectively, true if a connection default character set was
10 specified and the character set id of the connection defautl character set.
11
12 3. FB3 Interface Implementation: Blob metadata may not be retrieved for blob parameters
13 for stored procedures.

15 FBINTF Change Log version (1.1-0) Sun, 07 Jan 2018 15:20:02 +0000
16
17 1. Fix issues with setting SQL Param values using SetAsString with Numeric types.
18 Scale is no longer ignored.
19
20 2. Fix issues with setting SQL Param values using SetAsString with Date values
21 not in locale format but which are recognised by Firebird. Date values that
22 cannot be converted to a string using Pascal library are now passed through
23 to Firebird as Text Strings.
24
25 3. Lookup character set name by codepage amended to ensure that CP_UTF8 returns
26 UTF8 and not UNICODE_FSS.
27
28 4. Charset ID problem. When using Firebird 3, with no default database character set
29 and a column has a non-default collation specified, an incorrect character set
30 id was being reported that could result in a 'division by zero' error when
31 used by IBX. This has now been fixed.
32
33 5. Move GetCharsetName, CharSetID2CodePage, CodePage2CharSetID, CharSetName2CharSetID,
34 CharSetWidth from IFirebirdAPI to IAttachment. This is a better data model as
35 the character sets supported can be updated on a per database basis. That is
36 it is possible to add a (Firebird) user defined character set to a database.
37
38 6. Add RegisterCharSet to IAttachment. This is used to register a user defined character
39 set supported by Firebird with the API.
40
41 7. Add missing isc_info_db_read_only to list of decoded Database Information items
42 in FBOutputBlock.pas and update test suite to include this item.
43
44 8. FB30Client: avoid always using "StartMultiple" when only a single database attachment.
45
46 9. Loading Windows fbclient.dll: when using the FIREBIRD variable to locate the client
47 library or finding it by disk location, the PATH environment variable is now also set to
48 include the FIREBIRD directory. This is to ensure that the correct dlls in the
49 firebird client library dependencies are loaded.
50
51 10. Testsuite: Ensure consistent UTF-8 output on Windows console.
52
53 11. Testsuite: Update Windows script to include FPC 3.0.4 in search path.
54
55 12. FB30Statement: Protect call to "Move" and avoid calling with a nil pointer
56
57 13. FB30Statement: A check has been added to ensure that all SQL Parameters
58 have been given a value (including NULL). Previously, failing to set the
59 value of an SQL Parameter could give rise to unpredictable results or
60 an SQLDA error.
61
62 14. FB30Statement/FB25Statement: Set SQLParam "modified" when string value set.
63
64 15. FBAttachment: Avoid string reference count error when processing an Ansistring
65 parameter in an array of const passed to IAttachment.OpenCursor, etc.
66
67 16. FBAttachment: Allow for WideString and UnicodeString parameters in an array
68 of const passed to IAttachment.OpenCursor, etc.

71 FBINTF Change Log version (1.0-2) Sat, 04 Mar 2017 14:43:56 +0000
72
73 1. Change syntax to Mode Delphi
74
75 2. Change all uses of string type to explicit AnsiString in order to ensure
76 compatibility between Delphi and FPC.
77
78 3. Various syntax changes to ensure Delphi and FPC compilation including GUIDs
79 defined for each interface.
80
81 4. Generics syntax variations for Delphi added
82
83 5. PChar replaced with PByte expect where an actual string is being referenced,
84 where PAnsiChar is used instead.
85
86 6. Review of type definitions in IBExternals to ensure Delphi compatibility
87
88 7. Testsuite updated for Delphi
89
90 FBINTF Change Log version (1.0-1) Fri, 24 Feb 2017 12:17:57 +0000
91
92 1. Limit maximum Blob segment read/write to MaxuShort. Avoids data loss with
93 large blobs and the FB3 API.
94
95 2. Update Event Handling algorithm to avoid looping due to recreation of the
96 event block.
97
98 3. Avoid invalid XSQLDA error when the only parameter is updated to null
99
100 4. Array Handling: fix problem with text arrays with character set none. When the
101 DB connection has a default character set (e.g. UTF8), an error is raised by
102 Firebird if the space allocated is not enough to allow for transliteration, even
103 though it is not required for character set none.
104
105 5. IBUtils: List of reserved words brought up-to-date
106
107 6. Add ISQL style performance statistics collection to IStatement
108
109 7. Add IFirebirdAPI.CreateDatabase variant to allow execution of user provided
110 CREATE DATABASE statement.
111
112 8. Update SQL Statement parsing to allow for Array Dimensions. That is so that the ':' in
113 an array dimension is not mistaken for a named parameter prefix.
114
115 9. Trim function no longer applied to result of GetAsString for SQL_TEXT
116 when Character set is octets. Avoids loss of non printable characters at start of string.
117
118 10. Add function GetPerfStatistics to IStatement. This returns ISQL like performance
119 statistics for the last action. Requires use of procedure IStatement.EnableStatistics
120 to enable stats gathering.
121
122 11. API Version information added as constants to IB.pas
123
124 12. BlobMetaData character set id should now be the same as that given by IColumnMetaData.GetCharSetID
125
126 13. Firebird Character set "NONE" now interpreted as codepage CP_ACP.
