12   1. New property for TIBDatabase and TIBXServicesConnection. This is "ConfigOverrides"
13     and is used to override the default settings in the client side "firebird.conf" This
# Line 20 | Line 29 | IBX Change Log  version (2.3-3 Build 112
29     is a "convenience" property. If set the "WireCompression=true" is added to the
30     ConfigOverrides. If unchecked then this setting is removed.
31  
32 + 3. TIBExtract: 64-bit integer types are now correctly extracted as "BIGINT" and
33 +   not "INT64".
34 +
35 + 4. New published properties for TIBCSVDataOut, TIBInsertStmtsOut and TIBBlockFormatOut
36 +   These are:
37 +    property TimestampFormat: string;
38 +    property DateFormat: string;
39 +    property TimeFormat: string;
40 +
41 +   Respectively, these provide the date time format templates for SQL types: TIMESTAMP,
42 +   DATETIME and TIME. The format strings use the standard FPC date/time format
43 +   characters (see https://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/sysutils/formatchars.html).
44 +
45 +   If any of the above properties are set to an empty string, then the locale default
46 +   is used. This uses the ShortDateFormat and the LongTimeFormat. In timestamp, the
47 +   locale default is extended by appending '.zzz' to include milliseconds.
48 +
49 +   TIBCSVDataOut by default sets these properties to the empty string, while the other
50 +   two use: 'yyyy.mm.dd hh:nn:ss.zzz', 'yyyy.mm.dd' and 'hh:nn:ss.zzz' respectively.
51 +
52 + 5. New published property for TIBCSVDataOut:
53 +     property QuoteStrings: boolean (default true)
54 +
55 +   If false then strings are unquoted, otherwise, the QuoteChar property value is
56 +   used to delimit each and every string in the output.
57 +
58 + 6. New published properties for TIBCSVDataOut:
59 +    property FieldSeparator: string;
60 +    property HeaderSeparator: string;
61 +
62 +   Respectively, these provide the separator character(s) used to separate fields
63 +   in data and header rows. Both default to ','.
64 +
65 + 7. New published properties for TIBCSVDataOut and TIBBlockFormatOut:
66 +    TOnFormatTextString = procedure(sender: TObject; var TextString: string) of object;
67 +    property OnFormatTextString;
68 +
69 +   This event handler can be used to process text strings before they are included
70 +   in the output e.g. to replace unprintable characters with alternative strings.
71 +   This only applies to columns with an SQL Type of SQL_VARYING and SQL_TEXT.
72 +
73 + 8. TIBDataSet now raises an exception when ParamByName called with an invalid parameter name.
74 +   Uses "FindParam" if in order to find out if a parameter with a given name exists
75 +   and without raising and exception if it does not.
76 +
77 + 9. TIBQuery now uses IBX SQL Parser instead of the TParams SQL parser in order to ensure
78 +   consistency with SQL queries.
79 +
80 + 10. CaseSensitiveParameterNames property added to TIBSQL, TIBDataSet and TIBQuery.
81 +    When true, SQL statement parameter names are parsed case sensitive. Note for
82 +    TIBDataSet only applies to Select query.
83 +
84 + 11. IBEvents: removing a TIBEvent component from a form should no longer result in
85 +    an IDE exception.
86 +
87 + 12. LocalDBSupport: initial database creation should now work correctly
88 +    when the schema source is an sql file.
89 +
90 + 13. TIBCMLocalDBSupport: new event handler "property OnProgressEvent: TOnProgressEvent"
91 +    when defined, this handler will be called by the internal TIBXScript during
92 +    initial database creation when the schema source is an sql file and may be used
93 +    to provide a visual indication of progress in console mode.
94 +
95 + 14. TCustomIBLocalDBSupport: new public property "InOnCreateDB: boolean". This is set
96 +    to true while a new local database is being created and its schema populated.
97 +    Useful in (e.g.) TIBDatabase.OnAfterConnect handler to suppress actions
98 +    when the database is disconnected/connected during the create DB procedure.
99 +
100 + 15. TIBXScript: any User/password parameters found in a CREATE DATABASE statement
101 +    are now always ignored and replaced by the user name and password provided as
102 +    the login parameters for the TIBDatabase referenced from the TIBXScript. The
103 +    IgnoreCreateDatabase property still applies and the CREATE DATABASE statement is
104 +    completely ignored if this property is true.
105 +
106 + 16. Code tidyup in IBTreeView: Node properties initialisation moved from TIBTreeView.AddNodes
107 +    to TIBTreeView.Added. An OnAddition event handler is no longer needed to initialise
108 +    ImageIndex and SelectImageIndex values on AddNode.
109 +
110 + 17. TIBDatabase.Attachment and TIBXServicesConnection.ServicesIntf properties are now
111 +    read/write. This should enabled (e.g.) multiple instances of TIBDatabase to share
112 +    the same database connection.
113 +
114 + 18. TIBDataSet and TIBQuery now support the TDataSet "Filter" property.
115 +    if provided, this should be an conditional SQL expression suitable for
116 +    including in an SQL Select statement "where" clause. If non-empty and the
117 +    "Filtered" property is true then the SQL expression provided as the value of
118 +    the "Filter" property is "ANDed" with any existing condition statement
119 +    in the SQL statement's "Where" clause.
120 +
121 +    If the "Filter" property is set at run time, the "Filtered" property is true
122 +    and the dataset is already open, then the dataset is closed and re-opened automatically.
123 +
124 +    The "Filter" condition may include IBX style parameters. In which case, their
125 +    value must be set by the dataset's "OnBeforeOpen" event handler.
126 +
127 +    This is a public property for TIBDataSet and TIBQuery query and intended for
128 +    use at run time.
129 +
130 +    Note: The property is a published property of TIBTable. The TIBTable functionality
131 +    is unaffected by this change.
