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.

254		with eoTrigger, these extract types can be used to select only Database Triggers,
255		or DDL Triggers or both. Ignored when etTable or etTrigger included in Extract Types.

257	+	26. TIBXScript: If an exception occurs during the processing of a statement, the
258	+	statement separate character is now reset to the default (';').
259	+
260	+	27. TIBDatabase: Reconnect method added and used by TIBXScript for reconnect.
261	+
262	+	28. TIBXScript: Transaction is no longer automatically reactivated immediately processing
263	+	a commit or reconnect statement and instead activated only when next SQL statement
264	+	is executed.
265	+
266	+	29. TIBSQL.HasField should no longer generate and exception when the field does not exist.
267	+

269	+	converting statement to upper case.
270	+
271	+	31. TIBExtract: metadata comments now supported. New published property
272	+	IncludeMetaDataComments (default true). If true then metadata comments included
273	+	in extracted DDL. New Extract Object member eoComments. This may be used with

275	+
276	+	32. TIBExtract: ListObjectNames method added.
277	+
278	+	33. Updated Database component editor to support additional connection string
