86 >
87 > 1. Fix compile error with fpc trunk (3.3.1 and later), due to type change to tzname in "unix" unit.
88 >
89 > 2. Remove constraint in IAttachment.HasScollableCursors that returned false when
90 >   using remote protocol. Scrollable cursors with remote database expected to
91 >   be support for Firebird 4.0.1 onwards. Note: Firebird 4.0.0 will return
92 >   a not supported error.
93 >
94 > 3. IStatement: new function;
95 >    TStatementFlag = (stHasCursor,stRepeatExecute,stScrollable);
96 >    TStatementFlags = set of TStatementFlag;
97 >    function GetFlags: TStatementFlags;
98 >
99 > 4. Revised behaviour for IStatement.ExecuteQuery in order to preserve backwards
100 >   compatibility.
101 >   In Firebird 5, Update..Returning may returns multiple rows and hence the statemen
102 >   type changes from ExecProcedure to Select. So that ExecuteQuery can continue
103 >   to be used with Update...Retruning statements that return a singleton row,
104 >   instead of raising an exception when ExecuteQuery is used with a (SELECT) statement,
105 >   it will open the cursor and return the first row only.
106 >
107 > 5. ITransaction: new functions:
108 >    function GetIsReadOnly: boolean;
109 >    function GetTransactionID: integer;
110 >    function GetTrInformation(Requests: array of byte): ITrInformation; overload;
111 >    function GetTrInformation(Request: byte): ITrInformation; overload;
112 >
113 >   The latter two return the Transaction Information block. The first two extract
114 >   information the Transaction Information block
115 >
116 > 6. New function TSQLTokeniser.ReadCharacters
117 >   Used internally.
118 >
119 > 7. IStatement: GetProcessedSQL bug fix. No longer raises and error if SQL contains
120 >   parameter placeholders instead of named parameters.
121 >
122 > 8. ITransaction (Firebird 3 and later): An exception raised when freeing an underlying
123 >   transaction handle is now ignored if Rollback/Commit is called with Force=true
124 >
125 > 9. Tidy up of exception handling code. Under the legacy API, fb_interpret is now
126 >   used to get an IBError Message instead of isc_interprete.
127 >
128 > 10. Internal tidyup. Native code now used for decoding integers and the events
129 >    buffer. Avoids dependencies on fbclient functions isc_portable_integer,
130 >    isc_event_block and isc_event_counts.
131 >
132 > 11. New IAttachment function
133 >     function GetAttachmentID: integer;
134 >
135 > 12. Internal changes to TFBClientAPI, TFBAttachment and TFBTransaction and TFB30
136 >    subclasses to enable UDR support.

140   1. TFBClientAPI.GetProcAddr. Add check for nil reference.

147     user to disable them on a per statement basis. Note this can risk out-of-date
148     statement BLR. See User Guide.
149  
150 + 3. IBUtils: TSQLwithNamedParamsTokeniser now recognises a CASE...END block within a
151 +   stored procedure and hence avoids replacing named parameters within a containing
152 +   BEGIN..END block.
153 +
154 + 4. ISQLParam: using a string value to set an integer field with a scale factor of
155 +   zero is now treated as a special case to avoid the risk of floating point
156 +   rounding errors affecting pure integers.
157 +
158 + 5. ISQLParam:  Review and tidy-up of SetAsString for numeric types.
159 +
160 + 6. ISQLParam is now subclassed from IParamMetaData, which provides access to the mutable
161 +   SQL Parameter metadata (methods moved from ISQLParam).
162 +
163 + 7. ISQLParam: new method
164 +     function getColMetadata: IParamMetaData;
165 +   This instance of IParamMetaData returns the original column metadata which is unmutable.
166 +   Note: ISQLParam metadata can change after a parameter value has been set e.g when
167 +   setting a VARCHAR column to an integer value.
168 +
169 + 8. IStatement: can now set cursor name when opening a cursor. New overloaded method:
170 +    procedure Prepare(CursorName: AnsiString; aTransaction: ITransaction=nil); overload;
171 +   also IAttachment:
172 +    function Prepare(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; aSQLDialect: integer; CursorName: AnsiString=''): IStatement; overload;
173 +    function Prepare(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; CursorName: AnsiString=''): IStatement; overload;
174 +    function PrepareWithNamedParameters(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString;
175 +                       aSQLDialect: integer; GenerateParamNames: boolean=false;
176 +                       CaseSensitiveParams: boolean = false; CursorName: AnsiString=''): IStatement; overload;
177 +    function PrepareWithNamedParameters(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString;
178 +                       GenerateParamNames: boolean=false;
179 +                       CaseSensitiveParams: boolean = false; CursorName: AnsiString=''): IStatement; overload;
180 +
181 + 9. Support for scrollable cursors added. New/updated methods:
182 +   IAttachment:
183 +    function HasScollableCursors: boolean;
184 +    function OpenCursor(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; aSQLDialect: integer;
185 +                             Scrollable: boolean=false): IResultSet; overload;
186 +    function OpenCursor(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; Scrollable: boolean=false): IResultSet; overload;
187 +    function OpenCursor(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; aSQLDialect: integer; Scrollable: boolean;
188 +                             params: array of const): IResultSet; overload;
189 +    function OpenCursor(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; Scrollable: boolean=false;
190 +                             params: array of const): IResultSet; overload;
191 +    function OpenCursorAtStart(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; aSQLDialect: integer; Scrollable: boolean;
192 +                             params: array of const): IResultSet; overload;
193 +    function OpenCursorAtStart(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; aSQLDialect: integer;
194 +                             Scrollable: boolean=false): IResultSet; overload;
195 +    function OpenCursorAtStart(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; Scrollable: boolean=false): IResultSet; overload;
196 +    function OpenCursorAtStart(transaction: ITransaction; sql: AnsiString; Scrollable: boolean;
197 +                             params: array of const): IResultSet; overload;
198 +    function OpenCursorAtStart(sql: AnsiString; Scrollable: boolean=false): IResultSet; overload;
199 +    function OpenCursorAtStart(sql: AnsiString; Scrollable: boolean;
200 +                             params: array of const): IResultSet; overload;
201 +   IStatement:
202 +     function OpenCursor(Scrollable: boolean; CursorName: AnsiString =''; aTransaction: ITransaction=nil): IResultSet; overload;
203 +   IResultSet:
204 +    function FetchPrior: boolean; {fetch previous record}
205 +    function FetchFirst:boolean; {fetch first record}
206 +    function FetchLast: boolean; {fetch last record}
207 +    function FetchAbsolute(position: Integer): boolean; {fetch record by its absolute position in result set}
208 +    function FetchRelative(offset: Integer): boolean; {fetch record by position relative to current}
209 +    function IsBof: boolean;
210 +
211 + 10. IArray: tidyup of SetAsString method to ensure correct handling of fixed point numbers.
212 +
213 + 11. IBUtils: TSQLTokeniser. CRLF now combined by low level parser into sqltEOL token. This
214 +    may be noticeable when a line separator occurs inside quoted text. The quoted text
215 +    output by the tokeniser will now use the platform specific lineEnding regardless
216 +    of whether the input uses the CRLF or LF as a line separator.
217 +
218 + 12. IStatement, IResultsSet: Support for scrollable cursors added (note: local databases only)
219 +
220 +

222  
223   1. Integer decodes in information blocks (e.g. IDBInfoItem) widened from 32 bit to 64-bit integers.
