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). Values returned as a result of executing an Insert or Update statement |
| 8 |
< |
replace existing values in the current row for each corresponding column. |

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. |

3. The InsertSQL property editor now shows Firebird 3 Identity columns separate from the Field List. |
| 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 excuting 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. |

3. TIBTable: generated Insert and Update SQL now include a RETURNING clause for |
| 24 |
> |
any Computed By or Identity Columns. The IBTables example has been updated to |
| 25 |
> |
illustrate the computation of the employee Full Name on update. |
| 26 |

|

4. TIBTable: The GeneratorField property is now published. |

5. The InsertSQL property editor now shows Firebird 3 Identity columns separate from the Field List. |
| 30 |
|
When InsertSQL is generated, the Identity columns are not included in the list of values to |
| 31 |
|
be inserted. A RETURNING clause is added to the insert statement to return the value of |
| 32 |
|
each Identity column after the insert is executed. |
| 33 |
|
|
| 34 |
+ |
6. The Modify Property Editor now generates Update SQL with Computed By fields in Update..Returning clause. |
| 35 |
+ |
Similarly Insert Property Editor now generates Insert SQL with Computed By fields in |
| 36 |
+ |
Insert..Returning clause. |
| 37 |
+ |
|
| 38 |
+ |
7. TIBGenerator: small performance improvement by not preparing query each time |
| 39 |
+ |
a new value is generated. |
| 40 |
+ |
|
| 41 |
+ |
8. TIBSQL: Free resources when transaction changed - ensures new transaction is used. |
| 42 |
+ |
|
| 43 |
+ |
9. Property editors will now sync table name to a System Table when "Include System |
| 44 |
+ |
Tables" is selected and the query is for a System Table. |
| 45 |
+ |
|
| 46 |
+ |
10. Minor Performance improvement to handling of Date/Time types in IBX datasets. Field |
| 47 |
+ |
values are no longer converted to milliseconds from TDateTime and then back again |
| 48 |
+ |
to TDateTime (the conversion to milliseconds is the default TDataset approach). |
| 49 |
+ |
|
| 50 |
+ |
11. Property Editors handling of Stored Procedures. |
| 51 |
+ |
* Select and Refresh: only show a list of stored procedures that return multiple rows (proc type 1) and |
| 52 |
+ |
which have a non-empty list of output parameters (i.e. stored procedures that may be used in a select |
| 53 |
+ |
query). |
| 54 |
+ |
* Modify and Insert: only show a list of stored procedures that return at most a singleton row (proc type 2). |
| 55 |
+ |
|
| 56 |
+ |
12. IBStoredProc: Now supports Firebird 3 Package Names. A new published property PackageName |
| 57 |
+ |
can be used to select a package. If non-empty, the stored procedure name is |
| 58 |
+ |
expected to be a stored procedure defined in the specified package and the |
| 59 |
+ |
generated SQL will be as required for a stored procedure located in a package. |
| 60 |
+ |
|
| 61 |
+ |
13. Select, Refresh, Insert, Modify, Delete and TIBSQL SQL Property Editors now include |
| 62 |
+ |
a "Package Name" drop down box to allow selection of a Firebird 3 Package from |
| 63 |
+ |
which a stored procedure can be selected. With no package name selected, non-package |
| 64 |
+ |
stored procedures are listed. |
| 65 |
+ |
|
| 66 |
+ |
14. TIBXScript: turn off database login prompt when reconnecting - this avoids prompting |
| 67 |
+ |
for password on reconnect. |
| 68 |
+ |
|
