IBX Change Log version (2.2-0) Thu, 25 Jan 2018 13:56:39 +0000 |
2 |
+ |
|
3 |
+ |
1. IBExtract: Identity columns - add additional check for null column for generator name. |
4 |
+ |
|
5 |
+ |
2. IBCustomDataSet: Insert and Modify (Update) queries now recognise and process SQL RETURNING clauses. |
6 |
+ |
The main use for this is for Firebird 3 Identity columns (see IBXDocumentation 6.6.8 for further |
7 |
+ |
information). However, this is also a very useful mechanism for returning updated computed by |
8 |
+ |
column values. Values returned as a result of executing an Insert or Update statement |
9 |
+ |
replace existing values in the current row for each corresponding column. |
10 |
+ |
|
11 |
+ |
Previously, if a dataset's select query included read only (computed by) fields then |
12 |
+ |
an automatic row refresh was performed after an insert or update query had been processed, |
13 |
+ |
irrespective of the setting of the "ForcedUpdates" property. This has changed such |
14 |
+ |
that an automatic refresh is no longer performed if an insert or update query contains |
15 |
+ |
a returning clause that updates one or more fields on the current row. A full row |
16 |
+ |
refresh is only performed if (a) ForcedRefresh is true or (b) the query does not return any |
17 |
+ |
field values and the select query contains read only fields. Use of Insert/update |
18 |
+ |
returning should be significantly more efficient than executing a refresh query. |
19 |
+ |
|
20 |
+ |
This behaviour change is intended to be backwards compatible and there should be no need to change |
21 |
+ |
existing programs, other than to improve performance by using the new capability. |
22 |
+ |
|
23 |
+ |
3. IBCustomDataSet: DELETE...RETURNING queries are now also recognised. However, as |
24 |
+ |
they are called when the dataset row is being deleted, there is no value in |
25 |
+ |
updating the current record from the query result. Instead, a new event handler |
26 |
+ |
"OnDeleteReturning" is provided. If a DELETE...RETURNING query is execute and |
27 |
+ |
an OnDeleteReturning event handler is provided then it is called with the IResults returned |
28 |
+ |
by the query. The event handler can then interrogate the query results and |
29 |
+ |
perform whatever action is necessary. For example to confirm, to the user, |
30 |
+ |
the deletion of a row with the returned values. |
31 |
+ |
|
32 |
+ |
4. TIBTable: generated Insert and Update SQL now include a RETURNING clause for |
33 |
+ |
any Computed By or Identity Columns. The IBTables example has been updated to |
34 |
+ |
illustrate the computation of the employee Full Name on update. |
35 |
+ |
|
36 |
+ |
5. TIBTable: The GeneratorField property is now published. |
37 |
+ |
|
38 |
+ |
6. The InsertSQL property editor now shows Firebird 3 Identity columns separate from the Field List. |
39 |
+ |
When InsertSQL is generated, the Identity columns are not included in the list of values to |
40 |
+ |
be inserted. A RETURNING clause is added to the insert statement to return the value of |
41 |
+ |
each Identity column after the insert is executed. |
42 |
+ |
|
43 |
+ |
7. The Modify Property Editor now generates Update SQL with Computed By fields in Update..Returning clause. |
44 |
+ |
Similarly Insert Property Editor now generates Insert SQL with Computed By fields in |
45 |
+ |
Insert..Returning clause. |
46 |
+ |
|
47 |
+ |
8. TIBGenerator: small performance improvement by not preparing query each time |
48 |
+ |
a new value is generated. |
49 |
+ |
|
50 |
+ |
9. TIBSQL: Free resources when transaction changed - ensures new transaction is used. |
51 |
+ |
|
52 |
+ |
10. Property editors will now sync table name to a System Table when "Include System |
53 |
+ |
Tables" is selected and the query is for a System Table. |
54 |
+ |
|
55 |
+ |
11. Minor Performance improvement to handling of Date/Time types in IBX datasets. Field |
56 |
+ |
values are no longer converted to milliseconds from TDateTime and then back again |
57 |
+ |
to TDateTime (the conversion to milliseconds is the default TDataset approach). |
58 |
+ |
|
59 |
+ |
12. Property Editors handling of Stored Procedures. |
60 |
+ |
* Select and Refresh: only show a list of stored procedures that return multiple rows (proc type 1) and |
61 |
+ |
which have a non-empty list of output parameters (i.e. stored procedures that may be used in a select |
62 |
+ |
query). |
63 |
+ |
* Modify and Insert: only show a list of stored procedures that return at most a singleton row (proc type 2). |
64 |
+ |
|
65 |
+ |
13. IBStoredProc: Now supports Firebird 3 Package Names. A new published property PackageName |
66 |
+ |
can be used to select a package. If non-empty, the stored procedure name is |
67 |
+ |
expected to be a stored procedure defined in the specified package and the |
68 |
+ |
generated SQL will be as required for a stored procedure located in a package. |
69 |
+ |
|
70 |
+ |
14. Select, Refresh, Insert, Modify, Delete and TIBSQL SQL Property Editors now include |
71 |
+ |
a "Package Name" drop down box to allow selection of a Firebird 3 Package from |
72 |
+ |
which a stored procedure can be selected. With no package name selected, non-package |
73 |
+ |
stored procedures are listed. |
74 |
+ |
|
75 |
+ |
15. TIBXScript: turn off database login prompt when reconnecting - this avoids prompting |
76 |
+ |
for password on reconnect. |
77 |
+ |
|
78 |
+ |
16. IBDatabase: use IAttachment for connection default character set id, code page |
79 |
+ |
and character set name. |
80 |
+ |
|
81 |
+ |
17. TIBDatabaseInfo: cache ODS Version information on first request in order to minimise |
82 |
+ |
DB info lookups" |
83 |
+ |
|
84 |
+ |
18. IBExtract: now supports DDL Triggers. |
85 |
+ |
|
86 |
+ |
19. Add a property Editor for TIBUpdate.RefreshSQL. |
87 |
+ |
|
88 |
+ |
20. IBUpdate: Ignore non-data (e.g. calculated) fields when assembling list of input |
89 |
+ |
parameters. This stops an exception being raised when the field cannot be |
90 |
+ |
located in the record buffer. |
91 |
+ |
|
92 |
+ |
21. Property Editors now automatically include System Tables when opened and when the query table |
93 |
+ |
is a System Table. |
94 |
+ |
|
95 |
+ |
22. FB3UserManager example added to illustrate use if IBX for managing user logins, passwords |
96 |
+ |
and connections using IBX and with single or multiple security databases. |
97 |
+ |
|
98 |
+ |
|

IBX Change Log version (2.1-0) Fri, 15 Dec 2017 12:20:11 +0000 |
100 |
+ |
|
101 |
+ |
1. IBCustomDataset: Minor change of PChar to PByte for compatibility with fbintf |
102 |
+ |
changes. |
103 |
+ |
|
104 |
+ |
2. IBCustomDataset: Fixed use of incorrect datasize in TIBStringField.SetAsString. |
105 |
+ |
Bug could result in truncated multi-byte character set values. |
106 |
+ |
|
107 |
+ |
3. Changes consequential on moving fbintf character set utility functions from |
108 |
+ |
IFirebirdAPI to IAttachment. |
109 |
+ |
|
110 |
+ |
4. Avoid "Object is nil" error when opening a database with DefaultSystemCodePage = true |
111 |
+ |
|
112 |
+ |
5. IBLookupComboEditBox: avoid race condition when autocompleting text that occasionally |
113 |
+ |
results in autocomplete ignoring prefix text. |
114 |
+ |
|
115 |
+ |
6. IBLookupComboEditBox: Ensure that cursor is not reset to start of text when |
116 |
+ |
entering a new name into the text box. |
117 |
+ |
|
118 |
+ |
7. IBCustomDataset: ensure that TIBStringField uses the field size reported by |
119 |
+ |
Firebird rather than recomputing it. |
120 |
+ |
|
121 |
+ |
8. Property Editor positioning tidy up: All IBX Property editors should now be |
122 |
+ |
screen centre. Previously some were "poDesigned" which may be inappropriate |
123 |
+ |
for multi monitor desktops. |
124 |
+ |
|
125 |
+ |
10. TIBTreeView.FindNode: protect against error if zero length path or empty tree node. |
126 |
+ |
|
127 |
+ |
11. TIBTransaction: On Force Disconnect do not raise an exception when problem ending |
128 |
+ |
a transaction and always reset the object. |
129 |
+ |
|
130 |
+ |
12. TIBQuery tidyup: remove unnecessary call to GetAffectedRows. |
131 |
+ |
|
132 |
+ |
13. TIBXScript: Allow for override of database filename in Create Database statements. |
133 |
+ |
|
134 |
+ |
14. IBLocaldb: Support initialisation of the database from an SQL script in addition |
135 |
+ |
to a gbak format archive. |
136 |
+ |
|
137 |
+ |
15. IBLocaldb: fix problem that stopped the OnSharedDataDir event from being recognised. |
138 |
+ |
|
139 |
+ |
16. IBLocaldb: Drop database if error creating an empty database. |
140 |
+ |
|
141 |
+ |
17. TIBTreeView: improve performance when selecting node - avoid refreshing dataset |
142 |
+ |
unless selected node not in current dataset. |
143 |
+ |
|
144 |
+ |
18. IBServices: SetDBParams method moved from TCustomIBLocalDBSupport (in IBLocalDB package) |
145 |
+ |
to TIBCustomService, and IBlocalDB code tidy up. |
146 |
+ |
|
147 |
+ |
19. IBTreeView: Initialise TIBTreeNode KeyValue to null to avoid unpredictable |
148 |
+ |
behaviour due to uninitialised variable. |
149 |
+ |
|
150 |
+ |
20. IBServices: Correct encoding of isc_spb_prp_write_mode in TIBConfigService from |
151 |
+ |
integer to byte. Ditto isc_spb_prp_reserve_space and isc_spb_prp_access_mode. |
152 |
+ |
|
153 |
+ |
21. IBSQL: When Database changed ensure that all resources are freed. |
154 |
+ |
|
155 |
+ |
22. IBCustomDataset: When database changed ensure that queries an unprepared. |
156 |
+ |
|
157 |
+ |
23. SQL Property Editors now use SynEdit with SQL Highlighter. New features include: |
158 |
+ |
* Line Wrap on SQL Token boundaries (on user command) |
159 |
+ |
* auto-complete table names in drop down list of table names |
160 |
+ |
* Double click on tablename or field name adds to SQL text |
161 |
+ |
|
162 |
+ |
24. IBDataOutput: print statistics using float (%f) format instead of decimal (%d). |
163 |
+ |
|
164 |
+ |
25. IBTreeView: Call to FindNode: param type change from "array of Variant" to |
165 |
+ |
TVariantArray. Seems to avoid memory corruption in Windows (probably a |
166 |
+ |
workaround for a problem in fpc 3.0.4 win64). |
167 |
+ |
|
168 |
+ |
26. IBDatabaseInfo: Code tidy up. Add check for database not assigned or not open. |
169 |
+ |
|
170 |
+ |
27. IBDatabaseInfo: Remove memory leak when accessing database operation counts. |
171 |
+ |
|
172 |
+ |
IBX Change Log version (2.0-2) Fri, 24 Feb 2017 12:17:53 +0000 |
173 |
+ |
|
174 |
+ |
1. TIBDatabase.CreateDatabase: extract full DB Name from SQL using reg ex in order to |
175 |
+ |
include remote system name. |
176 |
+ |
|
177 |
+ |
2. TIBExtract: No longer include comment header and COMMIT statement for empty |
178 |
+ |
tables when data included in output. |
179 |
+ |
|
180 |
+ |
3. Profiling: IBSQL now has conditional compilation flags to enable query performance |
181 |
+ |
and timing information to be written to stdout. This may be used to locate |
182 |
+ |
performance bottlenecks. |
183 |
+ |
|
184 |
+ |
4. SQLParser: only call "OnChanging" event handler when value is different. |
185 |
+ |
|
186 |
+ |
5. IBDynamicGrid: Update handling of navigation keys for a TDateEdit |
187 |
+ |
|
188 |
+ |
6. IBCustomDataset: Set internalunprepared flag when transaction ends. This ensures |
189 |
+ |
that BindFields is called when the query is next activated. Avoids FieldName |
190 |
+ |
not found error. |
191 |
+ |
|
192 |
+ |
7. IBUpdate: This is a new IBX component similar to TIBUpdateSQL. It is more general |
193 |
+ |
purpose and allows the programmer to define any action they want for Update, Insert |
194 |
+ |
or Delete. This may be complex SQL (similar to a Trigger), application specific |
195 |
+ |
filtering of updates, or use of statements such as Grant or Revoke instead of |
196 |
+ |
normal DML. See User Manual for more information. |
197 |
+ |
|
198 |
+ |
IBX Change Log version (2.0-1) Mon, 09 Jan 2017 15:31:49 +0000 |
199 |
+ |
|
200 |
+ |
1. TIBEvents: Fix uninitialised variable that could result in lost events. |
201 |
+ |
|
202 |
+ |
2. TIBExtract: Added support for FB3 "USAGE" privilege. |
203 |
+ |
|
204 |
+ |
3. TIBExtract: data formatted as Charset set "octets" is now output using |
205 |
+ |
hexadecimal notation. |
206 |
+ |
|
207 |
+ |
4. TIBExtract: Binary Blobs and array data can now be embedded in INSERT statements |
208 |
+ |
using a simple XML format. |
209 |
+ |
|
210 |
+ |
5. TIBExtract: extract of individual Triggers and Stored Procedures can now include |
211 |
+ |
grants to these objects. |
212 |
+ |
|
213 |
+ |
6. TIBExtract: Stored Procedures and Views output in dependency order to avoid |
214 |
+ |
dependency problems restoring complex databases. |
215 |
+ |
|
216 |
+ |
7. TIBXScript: This component has been restructured to allow for the processing of |
217 |
+ |
embedded XML in INSERT statements and to support interactive sources in addition |
218 |
+ |
to non-interactive data sources such as files. |
219 |
+ |
|
220 |
+ |
8. TIBXScript: CREATE DATABASE, DROP DATABASE, CONNECT statements are now supported. |
221 |
+ |
|
222 |
+ |
9. TIBXScript: ISQL compatiable Set statements are now supported: |
223 |
+ |
SET SQL DIALECT |
224 |
+ |
SET TERM |
225 |
+ |
SET AUTODDL |
226 |
+ |
SET BAIL |
227 |
+ |
SET ECHO |
228 |
+ |
SET COUNT |
229 |
+ |
SET STATS |
230 |
+ |
SET NAMES <character set> |
231 |
+ |
|
232 |
+ |
10. IBVersion unit added to hold current IBX Version Number information. |
233 |
+ |
|
234 |
+ |
11. TIBExtract: Use character rather than byte length for VarChar procedure arguments., |
235 |
+ |
and domain definitions. |
236 |
+ |
|
237 |
+ |
12. TIBExtract: Triggers now use SQL2003 syntax and database and transaction triggers |
238 |
+ |
fully supported. |
239 |
+ |
|
240 |
+ |
13. TIBExtract: when a database dump includes data, the generator values are now also set. |
241 |
+ |
|
242 |
+ |
14: IBSQLEdit: Unit LCLPlatformDef added to uses clauses for lazarus 1.7 and later. |
243 |
+ |
|
244 |
+ |
IBX Change Log version (2.0-0) Tue, 06 Dec 2016 10:33:44 +0000 |
245 |
+ |
|
246 |
+ |
See also doc/IBX4LazarusGuide.pdf for important information on |
247 |
+ |
upgrading to IBX2. |
248 |
+ |
|
249 |
+ |
1. Size property of TIBStringField is now the width in characters of the field |
250 |
+ |
and not the byte length. This applies only to multi-byte character sets such |
251 |
+ |
as UTF8. The original approach aligned with TStringField. However, the TStringField |
252 |
+ |
code is not recognised as a bug and hence this change to align the behaviour. |
253 |
+ |
The TStringField change is expected in fpc 3.2.0. |
254 |
+ |
|
255 |
+ |
2. A new property AutoFieldSize: boolean has been added to TIBStringField. When |
256 |
+ |
true (default) then Size property value saved in the lfm is ignored. Size is |
257 |
+ |
always set from the dynamic information read from the database. It is unclear |
258 |
+ |
why anyone would want to override this and set Size to false. |
259 |
+ |
|
260 |
+ |
3. ibxscript: should now handle correctly a Case..End statement within a procedure |
261 |
+ |
block. |
262 |
+ |
|
263 |
+ |
4. IBDatabase: new property - CreateIfNotExists. If true and database does not |
264 |
+ |
exist when an attempt is made to connect to it (run time only) then an attempt |
265 |
+ |
is made to create the database. |
266 |
+ |
|
267 |
+ |
5. IBDatabase: new event - OnCreateDatabase. This event is called after a database |
268 |
+ |
has been successfully created as a result of a call to CreateDatabase or when |
269 |
+ |
creating a database after it was found not to exist. |
270 |
+ |
|
271 |
+ |
6. DBControlGrid: a race condition could result in the wrong row image being |
272 |
+ |
written to the cache. This has been avoided by a trip round the message |
273 |
+ |
loop before rendering the row image. |
274 |
+ |
|
275 |
+ |
7. DBControlGrid: It is strongly recommended not to open the source DataSet for |
276 |
+ |
a DBControlGrid during a Form's "OnShow" event handler. Under GTK2 this is |
277 |
+ |
known to risk corrupt rendering of row images when the control is first |
278 |
+ |
displayed. If necessary use "Application.QueueAsyncCall" to delay opening |
279 |
+ |
of the dataset (see DBControlGrid examples) until the Form's Window has been created. |
280 |
+ |
|
281 |
+ |
8. DBControlGrid & IBDynamicGrid: Navigation keys should now work correctly with |
282 |
+ |
a TDateEdit control located on an editor panel. |
283 |
+ |
|
284 |
+ |
9. TIBExtract: brought up-to-date plus many bug fixes. |
285 |
+ |
|
286 |
+ |
10. DBControlGrid: Removed memory leak when updating rows. |
287 |
+ |
|
288 |
+ |
11. TIBCMLocalDBSupport: fixed invalid free on upgrade. |
289 |
+ |
|
290 |
+ |
IBX Change Log version (1.4-3) Thu, 22 Sep 2016 18:10:15 +0100 |
291 |
+ |
|
292 |
+ |
1. IBCustomDataset: When calling SetCodePage, no longer request transliteration |
293 |
+ |
when target codepage is CP_NONE. This is a workaround for |
294 |
+ |
http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=30622. |
295 |
+ |
|
296 |
+ |
2. DBLog option removed from TIBStatisticalService - not supported by server |
297 |
+ |
since Firebird 1.5. |
298 |
+ |
|
299 |
+ |
3. ibxscript: An error is no longer generated for "on commit preserve rows" or |
300 |
+ |
similar. |
301 |
+ |
|
302 |
+ |
4. IBCodePage: updated mapping between codepages and character id. |
303 |
+ |
|
304 |
+ |
5. ftWideString and ftWideMemo withdrawn. There is no UTF16 character set in |
305 |
+ |
Firebird. Character sets with a char width of two are not UTF16. |
306 |
+ |
|
307 |
+ |
6. Strings received from the database are now always transliterated into UTF8 |
308 |
+ |
regardless of the database character set or connection character set. This |
309 |
+ |
is for compatibility with the LCL. |
310 |
+ |
|
311 |
+ |
IBX Change Log version (1.4-2) Thu, 22 Sep 2016 15:25:27 +0100 |
312 |
+ |
|
313 |
+ |
1. IBBlob: Defer reading of blob until read method called. This avoids having to |
314 |
+ |
read in an entire blob just to get the size of the blob. General performance |
315 |
+ |
improvement when opening datasets containing blobs. |
316 |
+ |
|
317 |
+ |
2. Clearing a Blob now sets the corresponding field's modified flag. |
318 |
+ |
|
319 |
+ |
3. IBLookupCombo: When not performing auto-complete, original query sort order |
320 |
+ |
is now used. |
321 |
+ |
|
322 |
+ |
4. IBDynamicGrid: Add OnSelectEditor event. Allows editor panel to be dynamically |
323 |
+ |
determined. |
324 |
+ |
|
325 |
+ |
5. IBDynamicGrid: Recompute column widths after dataset closed and re-opened. |
326 |
+ |
|
327 |
+ |
6. IBLookupCombo: LazUTF8 added to uses clause to avoid compilation problems post |
328 |
+ |
lazarus 1.6.0 |
329 |
+ |
|
330 |
+ |
7. IBControls. Removed "runtime" from list of paths to avoid "multiple packages" |
331 |
+ |
compilation error. |
332 |
+ |
|
333 |
+ |
IBX Change Log version (1.4-1) Tue, 17 May 2016 09:14:51 +0100 |
334 |
+ |
|
335 |
+ |
1. No character set specified for connection: when a text blob is retrieved, the |
336 |
+ |
character set is determined by looking up the native character set using then |
337 |
+ |
Firebird API. Otherwise a text mode blob is assumed to have the same character |
338 |
+ |
set as the connection. |
339 |
+ |
|
340 |
+ |
2. TIBGUIInterface: this is an internal interface. Minor type changes to allow |
341 |
+ |
for Login Dialog returing a change to the database path. |
342 |
+ |
|
343 |
+ |
3. Design Time Database and Server login Dialogs now allow the Database Name/Server Name |
344 |
+ |
to be changed from that given in the TIBDatabase/TIBServer component and for the |
345 |
+ |
entered value to be saved on a project specific basis (design time only). |
346 |
+ |
|
347 |
+ |
4. IBDynamicGrid: TDBLookupCellEditor now compares its DataFieldName with the |
348 |
+ |
column fieldname. If they are the same then it is acts as a look up for the KeyValue |
349 |
+ |
Otherwise, it sets the column text to the selected ListField Value. |
350 |
+ |
|
351 |
+ |
5. IBDynamicGrid: Only visible columns are now taken into account When recalculating |
352 |
+ |
column width. |
353 |
+ |
|
354 |
+ |
6. IBLookupComboEditBox: Fix error with autocomplete query when a RelationName is given |
355 |
+ |
and a case insensitive search is requested. |
356 |
+ |
|
357 |
+ |
7. IBDynamicGrid: No longer ignores notifications removing Column Totals controls |
358 |
+ |
or column ListSource. |
359 |
+ |
|
360 |
+ |
8. IBQuery: no longer performs unnecessary refresh of SQL Text (and hence avoids an |
361 |
+ |
unprepare) when closing and the text has not changed. |
362 |
+ |
|
363 |
+ |
9. IBSQL: Base the cursor name on a GUID instead of a hexstr version of the class pointer. |
364 |
+ |
Less likely to cause a cursor re-use error on Windows. |
365 |
+ |
|
366 |
+ |
10.SV5IPC: include workaround for OSX. FPC 3.0.0 has broken ipc module for darwin. |
367 |
+ |
Expected to be fixed in 3.0.2. Hence workaround only applies to 3.0.0. |
368 |
+ |
|
369 |
+ |
11. TIBTreeView: Guard against nil destination on record changed |
370 |
+ |
|
371 |
+ |
12. AnsiString Code page support: TIBStringField.AsString and TIBMemoField.AsString now return a |
372 |
+ |
string type with the code page set to reflect the returned field encoding after |
373 |
+ |
Firebird driver transliteration, if any. FPC 3.0.0 onwards only. Behaviour unchanged for |
374 |
+ |
earlier versions. |
375 |
+ |
|
376 |
+ |
13. AnsiString Code page support: Assigning to TIBStringField.AsString and TIBMemoField.AsString |
377 |
+ |
will now result in transliteration to the code page specified for the Firebird driver |
378 |
+ |
if the assigned string has a different code page. FPC 3.0.0 onwards only. |
379 |
+ |
|
380 |
+ |
14. TIBDatabase: new property UseDefaultSystemCodePage. When set any lc_ctype parameter |
381 |
+ |
is ignored and the lc_ctype value, when the database is opened, is set to align with |
382 |
+ |
the DefaultSystemCodePage (FPC 3.0.0 onwards). Normally, this is what you want and should ensure |
383 |
+ |
platform independence. Note: this applies to FPC 3.0.0 and earlier versions. Pre FPC |
384 |
+ |
3.0.0, when this property is true, the lc_ctype is UTF8 except under windows when |
385 |
+ |
the GETACP is used to determine the Windows code page. |
386 |
+ |
|
387 |
+ |
15. TIBDatabase: new property DefaultCharSetName. This is the Firebird character set |
388 |
+ |
name used as the lc_ctype when the database was opened. Only valid while the |
389 |
+ |
Database is connected. |
390 |
+ |
|
391 |
+ |
16. TIBDatabase: new property DefaultCodePage (FPC >=3.0.0 only). This is the codepage |
392 |
+ |
id that corresponds to the DefaultCharSetName. |
393 |
+ |

395 |
+ |
|
396 |
+ |
1. Unix: If Firebird Embedded Server shared object is loaded and a local database |
397 |
+ |
path is given and database attach fails due to access permission issues on the |
398 |
+ |
temp directory or security database, then the attach is retried with "localhost:" |
399 |
+ |
prefixing the databasename. This should avoid problems when the database has to |
400 |
+ |
be accessed by a local (e.g. classic) server and libfbembed is used. |
401 |
+ |
|
402 |
+ |
2. Windows: revised search order for Firebird DLL: |
403 |
+ |
i. The Firebird Embedded Server in the application Directory. |
404 |
+ |
ii. If the FIREBIRD environment variable is set then the directory this |
405 |
+ |
points to is searched for the FB Client DLL and then then underlying |
406 |
+ |
"bin" directory. |
407 |
+ |
iii. Registry Key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Firebird Project\Firebird Server\Instances |
408 |
+ |
is used to locate the Firebird installation directory and the underlying |
409 |
+ |
"bin" directory is searched for the FB Client DLL. |
410 |
+ |
iv. The Default installation directories C:\Program Files\Firebird\Firebird_2_x |
411 |
+ |
are searched for the FB Client DLL. |
412 |
+ |
v. The PATH Environment variable is used to search for the FB Client DLL. |
413 |
+ |
vi. Finally the PATH Environment variable is used to search for IBASE.DLL. |
414 |
+ |
|
415 |
+ |
3. New Component: TIBXScript. This is an ISQL compatible SQL script execution engine. |
416 |
+ |
See doc/readme.scriptengine and example applications. |
417 |
+ |
|
418 |
+ |
4. New Component: TIBlocalDBSupport. This is a TIBDatabase support component intended to |
419 |
+ |
simplify the use of the embedded firebird server on both Linux and Windows platforms. |
420 |
+ |
See dpc/readme.localdatabase and example applications. |
421 |
+ |
|
422 |
+ |
5. IBDynamicGrid: Reordering on column header click should now also work for |
423 |
+ |
dynamic columns. |
424 |
+ |
|
425 |
+ |
6. ISQLMonitor: (Windows only). Mutex added to TMultilockGate to avoid race condition |
426 |
+ |
between incrementing/decrementing the lock count and signalling the event. |
427 |
+ |
|
428 |
+ |
IBX Change Log version (1.3-2) Tue, 26 Jan 2016 14:39:54 +0000 |
429 |
+ |
|
430 |
+ |
1.3.2 was never formally released and only made available as beta copies. |
431 |
+ |
|
432 |
+ |
1. DBControlGrid,IBDynamicGrid: Ignore down arrow and up arrow in TCustomMemo |
433 |
+ |
|
434 |
+ |
2. IBDynamicGrid: Now deals correctly with a single column grid which has no indicator and autosize column |
435 |
+ |
|
436 |
+ |
3. IBLookupComboEditBox: reset timer on each key press - avoids timer going off too early |
437 |
+ |
|
438 |
+ |
4. IBDynamicGrid: Call event OnUpdateSortOrder even when aliasname not found in dataset |
439 |
+ |
i.e. when it is a calculated field |
440 |
+ |
|
441 |
+ |
5. IBDynamicGrid: Fix problem selecting a different row when expanded row at end of grid. |
442 |
+ |
This problem was due to a race condition between recalculating row heights and |
443 |
+ |
determining which row was selected by the mouse click. The row height calculation |
444 |
+ |
is now deferred by an extra trip round the message loop allowing the row to |
445 |
+ |
be always calculated on the current grid layout rather than risking it being |
446 |
+ |
calculated on the grid layout after the expanded row has been shrunk. |
447 |
+ |
|
448 |
+ |
6. IBLookupComboEditBox: avoid race condition between cm_killfocus and cm_exit on |
449 |
+ |
Windows. |
450 |
+ |
|
451 |
+ |
7. TIBStringField: Now has two new public properties: CharacterSetName: string and CharacterSetSize: integer; |
452 |
+ |
These properties allow the (Firebird) character set name for the field and the max number of bytes per character |
453 |
+ |
to be determined at runtime. See doc/readme.charactersets.html. |
454 |
+ |
|
455 |
+ |
8. TIBWideStringField: This is a new field type with the same additional public properties as above and subclassed from |
456 |
+ |
TWideStringField. This field type is used with the character size reported by Firebird is two. See doc/readme.charactersets.html. |
457 |
+ |
|
458 |
+ |
9. TIBMemoField and TIBWideMemoField: new field types with the same additional public properties as above and subclassed from |
459 |
+ |
TMemoField and TWideMemoField respectively. These field types are used with Blob subtype 1 and a characterset size of |
460 |
+ |
1, 3 or 4 (TIBMemoField) or 2 (TIBWideMemoField). See doc/readme.charactersets.html. |
461 |
+ |
|
462 |
+ |
Both also have a new published property "DisplayTextAsClassName". If false (default) the displaytext is generated |
463 |
+ |
from the blob text by truncating the string to the displaywidth (in characters not bytes). A displaywidth of zero |
464 |
+ |
implies no truncation. |
465 |
+ |
|
466 |
+ |
10. IBLookupComboEditBox: Force autocomplete when EditingDone called and timer active. |
467 |
+ |
|
468 |
+ |
11. IBDynamicGrid: Call DataSet.Append when entering edit mode and dataset empty and not in insert state |
469 |
+ |
(avoids "Not in Edit Mode" error). |
470 |
+ |
|
471 |
+ |
12. IBDynamicGrid: Correctly resize grid when one column width plus indicator. |
472 |
+ |
|
473 |
+ |
13. IBDynamicGrid: Ensure Editor Panel has focus when shown - avoids Windows API calling |
474 |
+ |
DBGrid.DoExit on subsequent mouse click (e.g. on child control such as a tabbed page control. |
475 |
+ |
|
476 |
+ |
14. IBDynamicGrid: ignore up, down tab and return when editorpanel open and focus in a TCustomGrid descendent. |
477 |
+ |
|
478 |
+ |
15. DBControlGrid: Stop flashing grid when dataset closed and then re-opened while DisabledControls |
479 |
+ |
|
480 |
+ |
16. IBQuery: Bug fixed that prevented SQL being set programmatically once the Parser had been invoked. |
481 |
+ |
|
482 |
+ |
17. IBCustomDataSet: On close, parser is now freed and Select SQL reverts to value before DataSet Opened. |
483 |
+ |
|
