IBX Change Log version (2.3-3 Build 11348) Fri, 28 Dec 2018 10:04:17 +0000 |
2 |
+ |
|
3 |
+ |
1. New property for TIBDatabase and TIBXServicesConnection. This is "ConfigOverrides" |
4 |
+ |
and is used to override the default settings in the client side "firebird.conf" This |
5 |
+ |
includes "WireCompression" and "WireCrypt". The value of this property is a "TStrings". |
6 |
+ |
Each line of the string list should be a setting in the same format as "firebird.conf". |
7 |
+ |
For example "WireCompression = true" in order to request wire compression on the client side. |
8 |
+ |
|
9 |
+ |
Note: explicit settings in the client side "firebird.conf" appear to take precedence |
10 |
+ |
over settings given in TIBDatabase and TIBXServicesConnection. Many client side settings |
11 |
+ |
also require a compatible setting in the server side "firebird.conf". For example |
12 |
+ |
"WireCompression = true" must also be set in the server's "firebird.conf" for wire |
13 |
+ |
compression to be used. |
14 |
+ |
|
15 |
+ |
Whether or not WireCompression or WireCrypt are in use can be checked using the information |
16 |
+ |
returned with the Client/Server protocol version. See ibx/examples/dbadmin and |
17 |
+ |
ibx/examples/dbinfo for examples of how to display this information. |
18 |
+ |
|
19 |
+ |
2. New property for TIBDatabase and TIBXServicesConnection: "WireCompression". This |
20 |
+ |
is a "convenience" property. If set the "WireCompression=true" is added to the |
21 |
+ |
ConfigOverrides. If unchecked then this setting is removed. |
22 |
+ |
|
23 |
+ |
3. TIBExtract: 64-bit integer types are now correctly extracted as "BIGINT" and |
24 |
+ |
not "INT64". |
25 |
+ |
|
26 |
+ |
4. New published properties for TIBCSVDataOut, TIBInsertStmtsOut and TIBBlockFormatOut |
27 |
+ |
These are: |
28 |
+ |
property TimestampFormat: string; |
29 |
+ |
property DateFormat: string; |
30 |
+ |
property TimeFormat: string; |
31 |
+ |
|
32 |
+ |
Respectively, these provide the date time format templates for SQL types: TIMESTAMP, |
33 |
+ |
DATETIME and TIME. The format strings use the standard FPC date/time format |
34 |
+ |
characters (see https://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/sysutils/formatchars.html). |
35 |
+ |
|
36 |
+ |
If any of the above properties are set to an empty string, then the locale default |
37 |
+ |
is used. This uses the ShortDateFormat and the LongTimeFormat. In timestamp, the |
38 |
+ |
locale default is extended by appending '.zzz' to include milliseconds. |
39 |
+ |
|
40 |
+ |
TIBCSVDataOut by default sets these properties to the empty string, while the other |
41 |
+ |
two use: 'yyyy.mm.dd hh:nn:ss.zzz', 'yyyy.mm.dd' and 'hh:nn:ss.zzz' respectively. |
42 |
+ |
|
43 |
+ |
5. New published property for TIBCSVDataOut: |
44 |
+ |
property QuoteStrings: boolean (default true) |
45 |
+ |
|
46 |
+ |
If false then strings are unquoted, otherwise, the QuoteChar property value is |
47 |
+ |
used to delimit each and every string in the output. |
48 |
+ |
|
49 |
+ |
6. New published properties for TIBCSVDataOut: |
50 |
+ |
property FieldSeparator: string; |
51 |
+ |
property HeaderSeparator: string; |
52 |
+ |
|
53 |
+ |
Respectively, these provide the separator character(s) used to separate fields |
54 |
+ |
in data and header rows. Both default to ','. |
55 |
+ |
|
56 |
+ |
7. New published properties for TIBCSVDataOut and TIBBlockFormatOut: |
57 |
+ |
TOnFormatTextString = procedure(sender: TObject; var TextString: string) of object; |
58 |
+ |
property OnFormatTextString; |
59 |
+ |
|
60 |
+ |
This event handler can be used to process text strings before they are included |
61 |
+ |
in the output e.g. to replace unprintable characters with alternative strings. |
62 |
+ |
This only applies to columns with an SQL Type of SQL_VARYING and SQL_TEXT. |
63 |
+ |
|
64 |
+ |
8. TIBDataSet now raises an exception when ParamByName called with an invalid parameter name. |
65 |
+ |
|
66 |
+ |
9. TIBQuery now uses IBX SQL Parser instead of TParams SQL parser in order to ensure |
67 |
+ |
consistency with SQL queries. |
68 |
+ |
|
69 |
+ |
10. CaseSensitiveParameterNames property added to TIBSQL, TIBDataSet and TIBQuery. |
70 |
+ |
When true, SQL statement parameter names are parsed case sensitive. Note for |
71 |
+ |
TIBDataSet only applies to Select query. |
72 |
+ |
|
73 |
+ |
11. IBEvents: removing a TIBEvent component from a form should no longer result in |
74 |
+ |
an IDE exception. |
75 |
+ |
|
76 |
+ |
IBX Change Log version (2.3-2) Wed, 05 Dec 2018 12:19:23 +0000 |
77 |
+ |
|
78 |
+ |
1. Remove need to check for IsMultiThread by providing access to GUI timers via |
79 |
+ |
IBGUIInterface. Note: master/detail delay timer does not apply to console |
80 |
+ |
mode apps. |
81 |
+ |
|
82 |
+ |
2. TIBCustomDataSet: SQLParser ignored if it does not contain a valid select |
83 |
+ |
statement. This avoids problems if "Execute Block" is used as the Query. |
84 |
+ |
|
85 |
+ |
3. IBSQLParser now uses the common SQL tokeniser from fbintf. This replaces the |
86 |
+ |
internal SQL tokeniser routines. |
87 |
+ |
|
88 |
+ |
4. IBSQLParser: new property NotaSelectStmt. Set to true if SQL fails to parse |
89 |
+ |
as a select statement, with or without CTEs. |
90 |
+ |
|
91 |
+ |
5. IBSQLParser: parser now recognises the "ROWS" clause. |
92 |
+ |
|
93 |
+ |
6. TIBXScript now uses the common SQL tokeniser from fbintf. This replaces the |
94 |
+ |
internal SQL tokeniser routines. |
95 |
+ |
|
96 |
+ |
7. Fix error in TIBXScript processing of "set" statements. This avoids exceptions |
97 |
+ |
being raised for valid set statements processed by a data formatter. |
98 |
+ |
|
99 |
+ |
8. New published property for TIBDatabase and TIBXServicesConnection. This is |
100 |
+ |
FirebirdLibraryPathName: string. If not empty it is used to explicitly specify |
101 |
+ |
the path of the Firebird Library used by the database/services connection. |
102 |
+ |
|
103 |
+ |
9. New read only public property for TIBDatabase and TIBXServicesConnection. This |
104 |
+ |
is FirebirdAPI and returns the IFirebirdAPI interface used by the database/ |
105 |
+ |
services connection. |
106 |
+ |
|
107 |
+ |
10.SQL Property editors now quote parameter names if "Quote identifier" is selected |
108 |
+ |
or param name is not a valid SQL identifier. |
109 |
+ |
|
110 |
+ |
11. IBLookupComboEditBox: In Lazarus 2.0, TDBLookupComboBox takes a more restrictive |
111 |
+ |
view of whether the text box should be editable when no DataSource is specified. |
112 |
+ |
TIBLookupComboEditBox has been updated to workaround this problem. As long as |
113 |
+ |
ReadOnly is false, the text box is editable when no DataSource is specified. |
114 |
+ |
|
115 |
+ |
12. AllowUseOfFBLIB is now set to "true" at design time. This is to allow use of |
116 |
+ |
the FBLIB environment variable. If you do not want to permit this then you |
117 |
+ |
must modify the Register procedure in the design/IBDBReg.pas unit to remove |
118 |
+ |
this setting. |
119 |
+ |

122 |
+ |
1. IBCustomDataset: replace deprecated function ValidUTF8String with call to |
123 |
+ |
Utf8EscapeControlChars |
124 |
+ |
|
