|
|
IAttachment
|

|
|
function JournalingActive: boolean;
|
6 |
|
|
function GetJournalOptions: TJournalOptions;
|
7 |
|
|
function StartJournaling(aJournalLogFile: AnsiString): integer; overload;

tony |
363 |
procedure StopJournaling(RetainJournal: boolean);
|
11 |
|
|
|
12 |
|
|
2. Transactions may now be given a local transaction name:
|
13 |
|
|
IFirebirdAPI
|
14 |
|
|
function StartTransaction(Attachments: array of IAttachment;
|
15 |
|
|
TPB: array of byte; DefaultCompletion: TTransactionCompletion=taCommit): ITransaction; overload;
|
16 |
|
|
TPB: array of byte; DefaultCompletion: TTransactionCompletion=taCommit;
|
17 |
|
|
aName: AnsiString=''): ITransaction; overload;
|
18 |
|
|
function StartTransaction(Attachments: array of IAttachment;
|
19 |
|
|
TPB: ITPB; DefaultCompletion: TTransactionCompletion=taCommit): ITransaction; overload;
|
20 |
|
|
TPB: ITPB; DefaultCompletion: TTransactionCompletion=taCommit;
|
21 |
|
|
aName: AnsiString=''): ITransaction; overload;
|
22 |
|
|
|
23 |
|
|
IAttachment
|
24 |
|
|
function StartTransaction(TPB: array of byte; DefaultCompletion: TTransactionCompletion=taCommit): ITransaction; overload;
|
25 |
|
|
function StartTransaction(TPB: ITPB; DefaultCompletion: TTransactionCompletion=taCommit): ITransaction; overload;
|
26 |
|
|
function StartTransaction(TPB: array of byte;
|
27 |
|
|
DefaultCompletion: TTransactionCompletion=taCommit;
|
28 |
|
|
aName: AnsiString=''): ITransaction; overload;
|
29 |
|
|
function StartTransaction(TPB: ITPB;
|
30 |
|
|
DefaultCompletion: TTransactionCompletion=taCommit;
|
31 |
|
|
aName: AnsiString=''): ITransaction; overload;
|
32 |
|
|
|
33 |
|
|
ITransaction
|
34 |
|
|
function GetTransactionName: AnsiString;
|
35 |
|
|
procedure SetTransactionName(aValue: AnsiString);
|
36 |
|
|
|
37 |
|
|
3. Additional Transaction information
|
38 |
|
|
ITPB.function AsText: AnsiString; {Returns TPB as a text string}
|
39 |
|
|
|
40 |
|
|
ITransaction
|
41 |
|
|
function GetDefaultCompletion: TTransactionCompletion;
|
42 |
|
|
function GetJournalingActive(attachment: IAttachment): boolean; {attachment must be specified when multi-database transaction}
|
43 |
|
|
|
44 |
|
|
4. New IAttachment helper functions
|
45 |
|
|
function HasTable(aTableName: AnsiString): boolean;
|
46 |
tony |
371 |
function HasFunction(aFunctionName: AnsiString): boolean;
|
47 |
|
|
function HasProcedure(aProcName: AnsiString): boolean;
|
48 |
tony |
363 |
function GetAttachmentID: integer;
|
49 |
tony |
371 |
function GetCharSetID: integer;
|
50 |
tony |
363 |
|
51 |
tony |
371 |
5. IStatement: if the BatchRowLimit is set to maxint, the maximum possible buffer size
|
52 |
|
|
will be allocted for batch operations.
|
53 |
|
|
|
54 |
|
|
6. IStatement, IColumnMetaData and ISQLParam all now consistently provide:
|
55 |
|
|
function GetStatement: IStatement;
|
56 |
|
|
function GetTransaction: ITransaction;
|
57 |
|
|
function GetAttachment: IAttachment;
|
58 |
|
|
|
59 |
|
|
7. Internal: a more disciplined approach to the handling of Firebird.IReferenceCounted
|
60 |
|
|
interfaces.
|
61 |
|
|
|
62 |
|
|
8. New interface type: IFBNumeric. IFBNumeric is implemented in the unit FBNumeric
|
63 |
|
|
and concentrates all handling of Fixed Point numbers. New ISQLItem and ISQLParam
|
64 |
|
|
functions getAsNumeric and setAsNumeric allow for direct retrival and manipulation
|
65 |
|
|
of numerics without loss of precision.
|
66 |
|
|
|
67 |
|
|
9. TryStrToNumeric and NumericToDouble moved from IBUtils to FBNumeric.
|
68 |
|
|
|
69 |
|
|
10. ISQLParams new method "Clear"
|
70 |
|
|
|
71 |
|
|
11. Support package fbudr added for support of User Defined Routines (UDRs).
|
72 |
|
|
|
73 |
|
|
12. Package layout changed with introduction of udr support. IB*.pas files moved from
|
74 |
|
|
root directory to "client".
|
75 |
|
|
|
76 |

FBINTF Change Log version (1.3-3 Build 12935) Mon, 06 Dec 2021 23:17:13 +0000
|
78 |
|
|
|
79 |
|
|
1. Fix compile error with fpc trunk (3.3.1 and later), due to type change to tzname in "unix" unit.
|
80 |
|
|
|
81 |
|
|
2. Remove constraint in IAttachment.HasScollableCursors that returned false when
|
82 |
|
|
using remote protocol. Scrollable cursors with remote database expected to
|
83 |
|
|
be support for Firebird 4.0.1 onwards. Note: Firebird 4.0.0 will return
|
84 |
|
|
a not supported error.
|
85 |
|
|
|
86 |
|
|
3. IStatement: new function;
|
87 |
|
|
TStatementFlag = (stHasCursor,stRepeatExecute,stScrollable);
|
88 |
|
|
TStatementFlags = set of TStatementFlag;
|
89 |
|
|
function GetFlags: TStatementFlags;
|
90 |
|
|
|
91 |
|
|
4. Revised behaviour for IStatement.ExecuteQuery in order to preserve backwards
|
92 |
|
|
compatibility.
|
93 |
|
|
In Firebird 5, Update..Returning may returns multiple rows and hence the statemen
|
94 |
|
|
type changes from ExecProcedure to Select. So that ExecuteQuery can continue
|
95 |
|
|
to be used with Update...Retruning statements that return a singleton row,
|
96 |
|
|
instead of raising an exception when ExecuteQuery is used with a (SELECT) statement,
|
97 |
|
|
it will open the cursor and return the first row only.
|
98 |
|
|
|
99 |
|
|
5. ITransaction: new functions:
|
100 |
|
|
function GetIsReadOnly: boolean;
|
101 |
|
|
function GetTransactionID: integer;
|
102 |
|
|
function GetTrInformation(Requests: array of byte): ITrInformation; overload;
|
103 |
|
|
function GetTrInformation(Request: byte): ITrInformation; overload;
|
104 |
|
|
|
105 |
|
|
The latter two return the Transaction Information block. The first two extract
|
106 |
|
|
information the Transaction Information block
|
107 |
|
|
|
108 |
|
|
6. New function TSQLTokeniser.ReadCharacters
|
109 |
|
|
Used internally.
|
110 |
|
|
|
111 |
|
|
7. IStatement: GetProcessedSQL bug fix. No longer raises and error if SQL contains
|
112 |
|
|
parameter placeholders instead of named parameters.
|
113 |
|
|
|
114 |
|
|
8. ITransaction (Firebird 3 and later): An exception raised when freeing an underlying
|
115 |
|
|
transaction handle is now ignored if Rollback/Commit is called with Force=true
|
116 |
|
|
|
117 |
tony |
371 |
9. Tidy up of exception handling code. Under the legacy API, fb_interpret is now
|
118 |
|
|
used to get an IBError Message instead of isc_interprete.
|
119 |
|
|
|
120 |
|
|
10. Internal tidyup. Native code now used for decoding integers and the events
|
121 |
|
|
buffer. Avoids dependencies on fbclient functions isc_portable_integer,
|
122 |
|
|
isc_event_block and isc_event_counts.
|
123 |
|
|
|
124 |
|
|
11. New IAttachment function
|
125 |
|
|
function GetAttachmentID: integer;
|
126 |
|
|
|
127 |
|
|
12. Internal changes to TFBClientAPI, TFBAttachment and TFBTransaction and TFB30
|
128 |
|
|
subclasses to enable UDR support.
|
129 |
|
|
|

FBINTF Change Log version (1.3-2 Build 12889) Sun, 24 Oct 2021 13:49:28 +0100
|
131 |
tony |
347 |
|
132 |
|
|
1. TFBClientAPI.GetProcAddr. Add check for nil reference.
|
133 |
|
|
|
134 |
|
|
2. IStatement: new methods:
|
135 |
|
|
procedure SetStaleReferenceChecks(Enable:boolean); {default true}
|
136 |
|
|
function GetStaleReferenceChecks: boolean;
|
137 |
|
|
|
138 |
|
|
In previous versions, stale reference checks were always enabled. This allows the
|
139 |
|
|
user to disable them on a per statement basis. Note this can risk out-of-date
|
140 |
|
|
statement BLR. See User Guide.
|
141 |
|
|
|
142 |
tony |
348 |
3. IBUtils: TSQLwithNamedParamsTokeniser now recognises a CASE...END block within a
|
143 |
|
|
stored procedure and hence avoids replacing named parameters within a containing
|
144 |
|
|
BEGIN..END block.
|
145 |
|
|
|
146 |
tony |
349 |
4. ISQLParam: using a string value to set an integer field with a scale factor of
|
147 |
|
|
zero is now treated as a special case to avoid the risk of floating point
|
148 |
|
|
rounding errors affecting pure integers.
|
149 |
|
|
|
150 |
|
|
5. ISQLParam: Review and tidy-up of SetAsString for numeric types.
|
151 |
|
|
|
152 |
|
|
6. ISQLParam is now subclassed from IParamMetaData, which provides access to the mutable
|
153 |
|
|
SQL Parameter metadata (methods moved from ISQLParam).
|
154 |
|
|
|
155 |
|
|
7. ISQLParam: new method
|
156 |
|
|
function getColMetadata: IParamMetaData;
|
157 |
|
|
This instance of IParamMetaData returns the original column metadata which is unmutable.
|
158 |
|
|
Note: ISQLParam metadata can change after a parameter value has been set e.g when
|
159 |
|
|
setting a VARCHAR column to an integer value.
|
160 |
|
|
|
161 |
tony |
350 |
8. IStatement: can now set cursor name when opening a cursor. New overloaded method:
|
162 |
|
|
procedure Prepare(CursorName: AnsiString; aTransaction: ITransaction=nil); overload;
|
163 |
|
|
also IAttachment:
|
164 |
|
|
function Prepare(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; aSQLDialect: integer; CursorName: AnsiString=''): IStatement; overload;
|
165 |
|
|
function Prepare(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; CursorName: AnsiString=''): IStatement; overload;
|
166 |
|
|
function PrepareWithNamedParameters(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString;
|
167 |
|
|
aSQLDialect: integer; GenerateParamNames: boolean=false;
|
168 |
|
|
CaseSensitiveParams: boolean = false; CursorName: AnsiString=''): IStatement; overload;
|
169 |
|
|
function PrepareWithNamedParameters(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString;
|
170 |
|
|
GenerateParamNames: boolean=false;
|
171 |
|
|
CaseSensitiveParams: boolean = false; CursorName: AnsiString=''): IStatement; overload;
|
172 |
tony |
349 |
|
173 |
tony |
350 |
9. Support for scrollable cursors added. New/updated methods:
|
174 |
|
|
IAttachment:
|
175 |
tony |
352 |
function HasScollableCursors: boolean;
|
176 |
tony |
350 |
function OpenCursor(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; aSQLDialect: integer;
|
177 |
|
|
Scrollable: boolean=false): IResultSet; overload;
|
178 |
|
|
function OpenCursor(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; Scrollable: boolean=false): IResultSet; overload;
|
179 |
|
|
function OpenCursor(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; aSQLDialect: integer; Scrollable: boolean;
|
180 |
|
|
params: array of const): IResultSet; overload;
|
181 |
|
|
function OpenCursor(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; Scrollable: boolean=false;
|
182 |
|
|
params: array of const): IResultSet; overload;
|
183 |
|
|
function OpenCursorAtStart(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; aSQLDialect: integer; Scrollable: boolean;
|
184 |
|
|
params: array of const): IResultSet; overload;
|
185 |
|
|
function OpenCursorAtStart(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; aSQLDialect: integer;
|
186 |
|
|
Scrollable: boolean=false): IResultSet; overload;
|
187 |
|
|
function OpenCursorAtStart(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; Scrollable: boolean=false): IResultSet; overload;
|
188 |
|
|
function OpenCursorAtStart(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; Scrollable: boolean;
|
189 |
|
|
params: array of const): IResultSet; overload;
|
190 |
|
|
function OpenCursorAtStart(sql: AnsiString; Scrollable: boolean=false): IResultSet; overload;
|
191 |
|
|
function OpenCursorAtStart(sql: AnsiString; Scrollable: boolean;
|
192 |
|
|
params: array of const): IResultSet; overload;
|
193 |
|
|
IStatement:
|
194 |
|
|
function OpenCursor(Scrollable: boolean; CursorName: AnsiString =''; aTransaction: ITransaction=nil): IResultSet; overload;
|
195 |
|
|
IResultSet:
|
196 |
|
|
function FetchPrior: boolean; {fetch previous record}
|
197 |
|
|
function FetchFirst:boolean; {fetch first record}
|
198 |
|
|
function FetchLast: boolean; {fetch last record}
|
199 |
|
|
function FetchAbsolute(position: Integer): boolean; {fetch record by its absolute position in result set}
|
200 |
|
|
function FetchRelative(offset: Integer): boolean; {fetch record by position relative to current}
|
201 |
|
|
function IsBof: boolean;
|
202 |
|
|
|
203 |
tony |
353 |
10. IArray: tidyup of SetAsString method to ensure correct handling of fixed point numbers.
|
204 |
tony |
350 |
|
205 |
tony |
353 |
11. IBUtils: TSQLTokeniser. CRLF now combined by low level parser into sqltEOL token. This
|
206 |
|
|
may be noticeable when a line separator occurs inside quoted text. The quoted text
|
207 |
|
|
output by the tokeniser will now use the platform specific lineEnding regardless
|
208 |
|
|
of whether the input uses the CRLF or LF as a line separator.
|
209 |
tony |
350 |
|
210 |
tony |
353 |
12. IStatement, IResultsSet: Support for scrollable cursors added (note: local databases only)
|
211 |
|
|
|
212 |
|
|
|
213 |

FBINTF Change Log version (1.3-1 Build 12776) Mon, 23 Aug 2021 11:09:33 +0100
|
214 |
|
|
|
215 |
|
|
1. Integer decodes in information blocks (e.g. IDBInfoItem) widened from 32 bit to 64-bit integers.
|
216 |
|
|
|
217 |
|
|
2. Support for inline blob encoding. Blob values pass using the "SetAsString" method
|
218 |
|
|
will now be encoded inline (i.e. as part of the parameter buffer) if they are
|
219 |
|
|
shorter than a pre-set limit. Longer values continue to be saved as blobs as a
|
220 |
|
|
separate server interaction. This is intended as a performance optimisation.
|
221 |
|
|
|
222 |
|
|
The pre-set limit defaults to 8192 bytes and can be inspected/modified using the new
|
223 |
|
|
IAttachment interface functions:
|
224 |
|
|
|
225 |
|
|
function GetInlineBlobLimit: integer;
|
226 |
|
|
procedure SetInlineBlobLimit(limit: integer);
|
227 |
|
|
|
228 |
|
|
3. Support for Firebird 4 IBatch interface added. This is largely transparent to the API
|
229 |
|
|
user as the functionality is embedded in the implementation of the IStatement
|
230 |
|
|
interface. Three new functions are defined:
|
231 |
|
|
|
232 |
|
|
procedure AddToBatch;
|
233 |
|
|
function ExecuteBatch(aTransaction: ITransaction=nil): IBatchCompletion;
|
234 |
|
|
procedure CancelBatch;
|
235 |
|
|
function GetBatchCompletion: IBatchCompletion;
|
236 |
|
|
function GetBatchRowLimit: integer;
|
237 |
|
|
procedure SetBatchRowLimit(aLimit: integer);
|
238 |
|
|
|
239 |
|
|
Also
|
240 |
|
|
|
241 |
|
|
function IsInBatchMode: boolean; {true after call to execute(eaDefer)}
|
242 |
|
|
function HasBatchMode: boolean; {true if and only if IBatch Supported}
|
243 |
|
|
|
244 |
|
|
For more information see the User Guide.
|
245 |
|
|
|
246 |
|
|
4. Default error message contents. Now aligned with User Guide section 10.2 i.e. error messages
|
247 |
|
|
provided with the EIBInterBaseError now include all three parts.
|
248 |
|
|
|
249 |
|
|
5. Firebird.pas and include files updated to Firebird 4.0.0
|
250 |
|
|
|
251 |
|
|
6. New IStatement method: function GetSQLStatementTypeName: AnsiString;
|
252 |
|
|
Returns SQL Statement type as a text string;
|
253 |
|
|
|
254 |
|
|
7. ISQLData.AsInteger and AsInt64 now use "Round" to convert a float field to
|
255 |
|
|
an integer instead of "trunc". This is for compatibility with TFloatField.AsInteger.
|
256 |

FBINTF Change Log version (1.2-1 Build 12552) Wed, 09 Jun 2021 13:05:40 +0100
|
258 |
tony |

|
259 |
|
|
1. Big fix for Firebird 4.0. A internal change in Firebird 4.0.0 from RC1 flushed out a
|
260 |
|
|
typo in FB30Statement.pas that caused an unknown parameter error.
|
261 |
|

308 |
|
264 |
tony |
315 |
1. Imported (Firebird) constants updated for Firebird 4.
|
265 |
|
|
|
266 |
|
|
2. Firebird.pas from Firebird 4 integrated into source code tree.
|
267 |
|
|
|
268 |
|
|
3. Added Support for TIMETAMP WITH TIME ZONE and TIME WITH TIME ZONE data types.
|
269 |
|
|
|
270 |
|
|
4. Added Support for SQL_DEC16, SQL_DEC34 and extended NUMERIC precision.
|
271 |
|
|
|
272 |
|
|
5. New unit 'FBClientLib.pas' added and provides new interface IFBIMasterProvider.
|
273 |
|
|
QueryInterface may be used to coerce this interface from IFirebirdAPI. The
|
274 |
|
|
interface provides a single method "function GetIMasterIntf: IMaster". This provides
|
275 |
|
|
type safe access to the Firebird IMaster interface and avoids the need to turn
|
276 |
|
|
off object checks when coercing "function GetIMaster: TObject" to IMaster.
|
277 |
|
|
|
278 |
|
|
6. New IFirebirdAPI Calls:
|
279 |
|
|
function HasLocalTZDB: boolean;
|
280 |
|

13. IDPB, ITPB and ISPB: new interface method
|
337 |
|
|
function AddByTypeName(ParamTypeName: AnsiString): IDPBItem/ITPBItem/ISPBItem;
|
338 |
|
|
This is used to add a parameter block item by the string equivalent of its
|
339 |
|
|
symbolic type name. e.g. DPB.AddByTypeName('isc_dpb_user_name').AsString := '...'
|
340 |
|
|
|
341 |
|
|
14. IDPBItem/ITPBItem/ISPBItem: new interface method:

342 |
|
|
function getParamTypeName: AnsiString;
|
343 |
|
|
|
344 |
|
|
15. fb_shutdown now called before unloading Firebird library. This can avoid a
|
345 |
|
|
SIGEVENT error when a programme using the embeded server is unloaded.

1. GetImplementationVersion now correctly returns '3.0' for Firebird 3 API
|
350 |
|
|
with a Firebrid 3 client library.
|
351 |
|
|
|
352 |
|
|
2. Linux Only: FIREBIRD environment variable is now checked when loading the client library.
|
353 |
|
|
If a client library path is not explicitly provided and the FIREBIRD environment
|
354 |
|
|
variable is set then the directory given by this variable and any 'lib' subdirectory
|
355 |
|
|
are searched for the Firebird client library. Only if none is found, is the default
|
356 |
|
|
client library used.
|
357 |
|
|
|
358 |
|
|
3. IUtil.FormatStatus now used to format error messages when using new API
|
359 |
|
|
|
360 |
|
|
4. Fixed Array SDL: array_desc_scale now correctly encoded as a signed integer.
|
361 |
|
|
|
362 |
|
|
5. SQL_TEXT handling changed. When the value of an SQL_TEXT (i.e. fixed width string) column is
|
363 |
|
|
returned using GetAsString and the string codepage is UTF8, the string is truncated so
|
364 |
|
|
that the byte length corresponds to the number of characters specified for the column.
|
365 |
|
|
SQL_TEXT strings are no longer automatically trimmed to remove all trailing white space. This is
|
366 |
|
|
correct behaviour but may affect some implementations that relied upon automatic
|
367 |
|
|
trimming of trailing white space.
|
368 |
|
|
|
369 |
|
|
6. New IFirebirdAPI Calls:
|
370 |
|
|
function GetClientMajor: integer;
|
371 |
|
|
function GetClientMinor: integer;
|
372 |
|
|
|
373 |
tony |

7. IColumnMetaData and IArrayMetaData: new method
|

1. ISQLParams.GetHasCaseSensitiveParams added. Returns true if param names are
|
379 |
|
|
case sensitive
|
380 |
|
|
|
381 |
|
|
2. Single line SQL comments starting with '--' are now recognised by SQL Parser.
|
382 |

|
4. FBMessages: removal of unused messages
|
392 |
|
|
|
393 |
|
|
5. TFBArray.Create (2nd case): ensure that FFirebirdClientAPI is correctly set.
|
394 |
|
|
|
395 |
|
|
6. TIBSQLStatementType: SQLSavePoint added to end of enumeration.

|
1. Fix a problem with the SQL parameter parser that failed to recognise parameters
|
400 |
|
|
where the second character of the parameter name is a numeric.
|
401 |
|
|
|
402 |
tony |
266 |
2. New method for IAttachment: procedure getFBVersion(version: TStrings);
|
403 |
|
|
This returns the isc_version connection information as one or more lines.
|
404 |
|
|
This is the same information as returned by isql with the -z option.
|
405 |
tony |
265 |
|
406 |
tony |
270 |
3. If -dFIREBIRD3APIONLY is used as a compiler option then the legacy Firebird API
|
407 |
|
|
is no longer compiled in. Likewise, if -dLEGACYFIREBIRDAPIONLY is used as a
|
408 |
|
|
compiler option then the Firebird 3 API is no longer compiled in.
|
409 |
tony |
266 |
|
410 |

4. IColumnMetaData: new method.
|
411 |
|
|
|
412 |
|
|
TIBDateTimeFormats = (dfTimestamp, {SQL TIMESTAMP}
|
413 |
|
|
dfDateTime, {SQL DATETIME}
|
414 |
|
|
dfTime);
|
415 |
|
|
|
416 |
|
|
function GetDateTimeStrLength(DateTimeFormat: TIBDateTimeFormats): integer;
|
417 |
|
|
|
418 |
|
|
This returns the max. number of characters returned by the "AsString" method
|
419 |
|
|
when the SQL type of the column is respectively TIMESTAMP, DATETIME or TIME.
|
420 |
|
|
|
421 |
|
|
5. Additional argument for IAttachment.PrepareWithNamedParameters -
|
422 |
|
|
CaseSensitiveParams: boolean = false
|
423 |
|
|
|
424 |
|
|
If this argument is set to true then SQL parameter names are assumed to be case
|
425 |
|
|
sensitive and must be referenced (using ISQLParams.ByName) using the case
|
426 |
|
|
sensitive name.
|
427 |
|
|
|
428 |
|
|
6. Bug fix: when setting a query parameter, it is now possible, when the parameter
|
429 |
|
|
is of type VarChar or Char to set the parameter to a numeric value (e.g. using
|
430 |
|
|
.AsCurrency) and then subsequently to update the value to a non-numeric string
|
431 |
|
|
using .AsString.

1. DARWIN only syntax error: fix missing semi-colon in TFBClientAPI.LoadIBLibrary
|
438 |
|
|
|
439 |
tony |
263 |
2. Restrict IsMultiThread check to Unix only for compatibility with
|
440 |
|
|
https://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=30535
|
441 |
|
|
|
442 |
|
|
3. New SQL Tokeniser added to IBUtils. This is used to pre-process SQL with
|
443 |
|
|
named parameters and is intended to avoid problems with (e.g.) Execute Block
|
444 |
|
|
and processing internal parameters as statement parameters.
|
445 |
|
|
|
446 |
|
|
4. New interface IFirebirdLibrary provides access to the underlying firebird DLL
|
447 |
|
|
or shared object. Available via a new member (GetFBLibrary) of IFirebirdAPI.
|
448 |
|
|
|
449 |
|
|
5. New function added to IB.pas
|
450 |
|
|
|
451 |
|
|
function LoadFBLibrary(aLibPathName: string): IFirebirdLibrary
|
452 |
|
|
|
453 |
|
|
This allows a Firebird Library to be loaded from an explicit path. use the
|
454 |
|
|
IFirebirdLibrary.GetFirebirdAPI member function to get the Firebird API using
|
455 |
|
|
the library. It is possible to load Firebird libraries from different locations
|
456 |
|
|
simultaneously, each with a distinct IFirebirdAPI.

1. Firebird.pas: {$OBJECTCHECKS OFF} added to file to avoid runtime error when
|
461 |
|
|
program compiled with -CR command line switch.
|
462 |
|
|
|
463 |
|
|
2. IServiceManager additions (informational):
|
464 |
|
|
function getProtocol: TProtocol;
|
465 |
|
|
function getPortNo: AnsiString;
|
466 |
|
|
|
467 |
|
|
3. IServiceManager improved error handling. Interfaces changed:
|
468 |
|
|
function Start(Request: ISRB; RaiseExceptionOnError: boolean=true): boolean;
|
469 |
|
|
function Query(SQPB: ISQPB; Request: ISRB; RaiseExceptionOnError: boolean=true) :IServiceQueryResults; overload;
|
470 |
|
|
function Query(Request: ISRB; RaiseExceptionOnError: boolean=true) :IServiceQueryResults; overload;
|
471 |
|
|
|
472 |
|
|
4. IAttachment addition (informational)
|
473 |
|
|
function GetSecurityDatabase: AnsiString;
|
474 |
|
|
|
475 |
|
|
5. IStatement: performance counters now updated after each Fetch. GetPerfStatistics
|
476 |
|
|
thus now returns accumulated stats for a select statement from opening a cursor
|
477 |
|
|
up to the last fetch.
|
478 |
|
|
|
479 |
|
|
6. DARWIN: uloadlibrary.inc bug fix. Many thanks to Luigi Naimi for correcting
|
480 |
|
|
the problem.
|
481 |
|
|
|
482 |
|
|
7. Type change: "TPerfCounters = array[TPerfStats] of Int64". Note "Int64"
|
483 |
|
|
replaces deprecated "comp" type.
|
484 |
|
|
|
485 |

1. IBUtils.QuoteIdentifierIfNeeded: Add check for space character.
|
497 |
|
|
|
498 |
tony |
109 |
2. IAttachment: add two new methods
|
499 |
|
|
function HasDefaultCharSet: boolean;
|
500 |
|
|
function GetDefaultCharSetID: integer;
|
501 |
|
|
|
502 |
|
|
These return, respectively, true if a connection default character set was
|
503 |
tony |
117 |
specified and the character set id of the connection default character set.
|
504 |
|
|
The DefaultCharSetID is cached when the connection is opened and hence does not
|
505 |
|
|
require a database lookup.
|
506 |
tony |
109 |
|
507 |
tony |
110 |
3. Avoid exception when a text blob is a stored procedure parameter.
|
508 |
tony |
109 |
|
509 |
tony |
111 |
4. Update test suite to include a test for a stored proc returning a text blob.
|
510 |
|
|
|
511 |
tony |
117 |
5. IAttachment: add
|
512 |
|
|
function GetRemoteProtocol: AnsiString;
|
513 |
|
|
function GetODSMajorVersion: integer;
|
514 |
|
|
function GetODSMinorVersion: integer;
|
515 |
tony |
143 |
function GetAuthenticationMethod: AnsiString;
|
516 |
tony |
117 |
|
517 |
|
|
These results are cached when the connection is opened and hence do not
|
518 |
|
|
require a database lookup.
|
519 |
|
|
|
520 |
|
|
6. IAttachment: add "function GetConnectString: AnsiString;" This returns the
|
521 |
|
|
connect string used to create/connect to the database.
|
522 |
|
|
|
523 |
|
|
7. IAttachment: Create Database using SQL statement. The username and password
|
524 |
|
|
are now extracted and used to populate a DPB made available via IAttachment.getDPB.
|
525 |
|
|
It is now possible to use IAttachment disconnect/connect to reconnect to
|
526 |
|
|
a database for which the initial connection was established by a create
|
527 |
tony |
120 |
database sql statement. Available in FPC only.
|
528 |
tony |
117 |
|
529 |
|
|
8. Update Test 1 to test 5, 6 and 7 above.
|
530 |
|
|
|
531 |
|
|
9. IBUtils code tidy up.
|
532 |
|
|
|
533 |
tony |
143 |
10. Parameter Block interfaces "find" method. As documented, this should have
|
534 |
|
|
returned a nil interface when the item could not be found. Instead, an empty
|
535 |
|
|
interface item was returned. "Find" now works as documented and will return
|
536 |
|
|
a nil interface if the item cannot be found.
|
537 |
|
|
|
538 |
|
|
11. DBInformation: support added for isc_info_active_tran_count and isc_info_creation_date.
|
539 |
|
|
|
540 |
|
|
12. DBInformation: New interfaces: IDIRB and IDIRBItem added to support DB Information
|
541 |
|
|
requests with additional parameters. This is to enable support for fb_info_page_contents
|
542 |
|
|
(return of page contents). Response to fb_info_page_contents returned as
|
543 |
|
|
a string with code page CP_NONE.
|
544 |
|
|
|
545 |
|
|
13. DBInformation: Support for fb_info_pages_used and fb_info_pages_free added, plus
|
546 |
|
|
test suite updated.
|
547 |
|
|
|
548 |
|
|
14. DBInformation: Support for fb_info_crypt_key (Firebird 3.0.3 onwards) added as
|
549 |
|

a string type, and fb_info_conn_flags (Firebird 3.0.3 onwards) added as an integer type.
|
550 |

551 |
|
|
15. Service Manager: List of protocols supported expanded to include inet, wnet and xnet.
|
552 |
|
|
An overloaded version of IIFirebirdAPI.GetServiceManager also allows a non
|
553 |
|
|
default connection port to be specified.

1. Fix issues with setting SQL Param values using SetAsString with Numeric types.
|
558 |
|
|
Scale is no longer ignored.
|
559 |
|
|
|
560 |
|
|
2. Fix issues with setting SQL Param values using SetAsString with Date values
|
561 |
|
|
not in locale format but which are recognised by Firebird. Date values that
|
562 |
|
|
cannot be converted to a string using Pascal library are now passed through
|
563 |
|
|
to Firebird as Text Strings.
|
564 |
|
|
|
565 |

3. Lookup character set name by codepage amended to ensure that CP_UTF8 returns
|
566 |
|
|
UTF8 and not UNICODE_FSS.
|
567 |
|
|
|
568 |
|
|
4. Charset ID problem. When using Firebird 3, with no default database character set
|
569 |
|
|
and a column has a non-default collation specified, an incorrect character set
|
570 |
|
|
id was being reported that could result in a 'division by zero' error when
|
571 |
|
|
used by IBX. This has now been fixed.
|
572 |
|
|
|
573 |
|
|
5. Move GetCharsetName, CharSetID2CodePage, CodePage2CharSetID, CharSetName2CharSetID,
|
574 |
|
|
CharSetWidth from IFirebirdAPI to IAttachment. This is a better data model as
|
575 |
|
|
the character sets supported can be updated on a per database basis. That is
|
576 |
|
|
it is possible to add a (Firebird) user defined character set to a database.
|
577 |
|
|
|
578 |
|
|
6. Add RegisterCharSet to IAttachment. This is used to register a user defined character
|
579 |
|
|
set supported by Firebird with the API.
|
580 |
|
|
|
581 |
tony |
61 |
7. Add missing isc_info_db_read_only to list of decoded Database Information items
|
582 |
|
|
in FBOutputBlock.pas and update test suite to include this item.
|
583 |
tony |
60 |
|
584 |
tony |
63 |
8. FB30Client: avoid always using "StartMultiple" when only a single database attachment.
|
585 |
tony |
61 |
|
586 |
tony |
68 |
9. Loading Windows fbclient.dll: when using the FIREBIRD variable to locate the client
|
587 |
|
|
library or finding it by disk location, the PATH environment variable is now also set to
|
588 |
|
|
include the FIREBIRD directory. This is to ensure that the correct dlls in the
|
589 |
|
|
firebird client library dependencies are loaded.
|
590 |
tony |
63 |
|
591 |

10. Testsuite: Ensure consistent UTF-8 output on Windows console.
|
592 |
|
|
|
593 |
|
|
11. Testsuite: Update Windows script to include FPC 3.0.4 in search path.
|
594 |
|
|
|
595 |
|
|
12. FB30Statement: Protect call to "Move" and avoid calling with a nil pointer
|
596 |
|
|
|
597 |
|
|
13. FB30Statement: A check has been added to ensure that all SQL Parameters
|
598 |
|
|
have been given a value (including NULL). Previously, failing to set the
|
599 |
|
|
value of an SQL Parameter could give rise to unpredictable results or
|
600 |
|
|
an SQLDA error.
|
601 |
|
|
|
602 |
|
|
14. FB30Statement/FB25Statement: Set SQLParam "modified" when string value set.
|
603 |
|
|
|
604 |
tony |
70 |
15. FBAttachment: Avoid string reference count error when processing an Ansistring
|
605 |
|
|
parameter in an array of const passed to IAttachment.OpenCursor, etc.
|
606 |
tony |
68 |
|
607 |
tony |
70 |
16. FBAttachment: Allow for WideString and UnicodeString parameters in an array
|
608 |
|
|
of const passed to IAttachment.OpenCursor, etc.

1. Change syntax to Mode Delphi
|
614 |
|
|
|
615 |
|
|
2. Change all uses of string type to explicit AnsiString in order to ensure
|
616 |
|
|
compatibility between Delphi and FPC.
|
617 |
|
|
|
618 |
|
|
3. Various syntax changes to ensure Delphi and FPC compilation including GUIDs
|
619 |
|
|
defined for each interface.
|
620 |
|
|
|
621 |
|
|
4. Generics syntax variations for Delphi added
|
622 |
|
|
|
623 |
|
|
5. PChar replaced with PByte expect where an actual string is being referenced,
|
624 |
|
|
where PAnsiChar is used instead.
|
625 |
|
|
|
626 |
|
|
6. Review of type definitions in IBExternals to ensure Delphi compatibility
|
627 |
|
|
|
628 |
|
|
7. Testsuite updated for Delphi
|

1. Limit maximum Blob segment read/write to MaxuShort. Avoids data loss with
|
633 |
|
|
large blobs and the FB3 API.
|
634 |
|
|
|
635 |
|
|
2. Update Event Handling algorithm to avoid looping due to recreation of the
|
636 |
|
|
event block.
|
637 |
|
|
|
638 |
|
|
3. Avoid invalid XSQLDA error when the only parameter is updated to null
|
639 |
|
|
|
640 |
|
|
4. Array Handling: fix problem with text arrays with character set none. When the
|
641 |
|
|
DB connection has a default character set (e.g. UTF8), an error is raised by
|
642 |
|
|
Firebird if the space allocated is not enough to allow for transliteration, even
|
643 |
|
|
though it is not required for character set none.
|
644 |
|
|
|
645 |
|
|
5. IBUtils: List of reserved words brought up-to-date
|
646 |
|
|
|
647 |
|
|
6. Add ISQL style performance statistics collection to IStatement
|
648 |
|
|
|
649 |
|
|
7. Add IFirebirdAPI.CreateDatabase variant to allow execution of user provided
|
650 |
|
|
CREATE DATABASE statement.
|
651 |
|
|
|
652 |
|
|
8. Update SQL Statement parsing to allow for Array Dimensions. That is so that the ':' in
|
653 |
|
|
an array dimension is not mistaken for a named parameter prefix.
|
654 |
|
|
|
655 |
|
|
9. Trim function no longer applied to result of GetAsString for SQL_TEXT
|
656 |
|
|
when Character set is octets. Avoids loss of non printable characters at start of string.
|
657 |
|
|
|
658 |
|
|
10. Add function GetPerfStatistics to IStatement. This returns ISQL like performance
|
659 |
|
|
statistics for the last action. Requires use of procedure IStatement.EnableStatistics
|
660 |
|
|
to enable stats gathering.
|
661 |
|
|
|
662 |
|
|
11. API Version information added as constants to IB.pas
|
663 |
|
|
|
664 |
|
|
12. BlobMetaData character set id should now be the same as that given by IColumnMetaData.GetCharSetID
|
665 |
|
|
|
666 |
|
|
13. Firebird Character set "NONE" now interpreted as codepage CP_ACP.
