1. IBCustomDataset: Minor change of PChar to PByte for compatibility with fbintf |
4 |
> |
changes. |
5 |
> |
|
6 |
> |
2. IBCustomDataset: Fixed use of incorrect datasize in TIBStringField.SetAsString. |
7 |
> |
Bug could result in truncated multi-byte character set values. |
8 |
> |
|
9 |
> |
3. Changes consequential on moving fbintf character set utility functions from |
10 |
> |
IFirebirdAPI to IAttachment. |
11 |
> |
|
12 |
> |
4. Avoid "Object is nil" error when opening a database with DefaultSystemCodePage = true |
13 |
> |
|
14 |
> |
5. IBLookupComboEditBox: avoid race condition when autocompleting text that occasionally |
15 |
> |
results in autocomplete ignoring prefix text. |
16 |
> |
|
17 |
> |
6. IBLookupComboEditBox: Ensure that cursor is not reset to start of text when |
18 |
> |
entering a new name into the text box. |
19 |
> |
|
20 |
> |
7. IBCustomDataset: ensure that TIBStringField uses the field size reported by |
21 |
> |
Firebird rather than recomputing it. |

1. TIBDatabase.CreateDatabase: extract full DB Name from SQL using reg ex in order to |
26 |
> |
include remote system name. |
27 |
> |
|
28 |
> |
2. TIBExtract: No longer include comment header and COMMIT statement for empty |
29 |
> |
tables when data included in output. |
30 |
> |
|
31 |
> |
3. Profiling: IBSQL now has conditional compilation flags to enable query performance |
32 |
> |
and timing information to be written to stdout. This may be used to locate |
33 |
> |
performance bottlenecks. |
34 |
> |
|
35 |
> |
4. SQLParser: only call "OnChanging" event handler when value is different. |
36 |
> |
|
37 |
> |
5. IBDynamicGrid: Update handling of navigation keys for a TDateEdit |
38 |
> |
|
39 |
> |
6. IBCustomDataset: Set internalunprepared flag when transaction ends. This ensures |
40 |
> |
that BindFields is called when the query is next activated. Avoids FieldName |
41 |
> |
not found error. |

|
47 |
> |
2. TIBExtract: Added support for FB3 "USAGE" privilege. |
48 |
> |
|
49 |

using a simple XML format. |
54 |
> |
|
55 |
> |
5. TIBExtract: extract of individual Triggers and Stored Procedures can now include |
56 |
> |
grants to these objects. |
57 |
> |
|
58 |
> |
6. TIBExtract: Stored Procedures and Views output in dependency order to avoid |
59 |
> |
dependency problems restoring complex databases. |
60 |
> |
|
61 |
> |
7. TIBXScript: This component has been restructured to allow for the processing of |
62 |
> |
embedded XML in INSERT statements and to support interactive sources in addition |
63 |
> |
to non-interactive data sources such as files. |
64 |
> |
|
65 |
> |
8. TIBXScript: CREATE DATABASE, DROP DATABASE, CONNECT statements are now supported. |
66 |

See also doc/IBX4LazarusGuide.pdf for important information on |
92 |
> |
upgrading to IBX2. |
93 |
> |
|
94 |
> |
1. Size property of TIBStringField is now the width in characters of the field |
95 |
> |
and not the byte length. This applies only to multi-byte character sets such |
96 |
> |
as UTF8. The original approach aligned with TStringField. However, the TStringField |
97 |
> |
code is not recognised as a bug and hence this change to align the behaviour. |
98 |
> |
The TStringField change is expected in fpc 3.2.0. |
99 |
> |
|
100 |
> |
2. A new property AutoFieldSize: boolean has been added to TIBStringField. When |
101 |
> |
true (default) then Size property value saved in the lfm is ignored. Size is |
102 |
> |
always set from the dynamic information read from the database. It is unclear |
103 |
> |
why anyone would want to override this and set Size to false. |
104 |
> |
|
105 |
> |
3. ibxscript: should now handle correctly a Case..End statement within a procedure |
106 |
> |
block. |
107 |
> |
|
108 |
> |
4. IBDatabase: new property - CreateIfNotExists. If true and database does not |
109 |
> |
exist when an attempt is made to connect to it (run time only) then an attempt |
110 |
> |
is made to create the database. |
111 |
> |
|
112 |
> |
5. IBDatabase: new event - OnCreateDatabase. This event is called after a database |
113 |
> |
has been successfully created as a result of a call to CreateDatabase or when |
114 |
> |
creating a database after it was found not to exist. |
115 |
> |
|
116 |
> |
6. DBControlGrid: a race condition could result in the wrong row image being |
117 |
> |
written to the cache. This has been avoided by a trip round the message |
118 |
> |
loop before rendering the row image. |
119 |
> |
|
120 |
> |
7. DBControlGrid: It is strongly recommended not to open the source DataSet for |
121 |
> |
a DBControlGrid during a Form's "OnShow" event handler. Under GTK2 this is |
122 |
> |
known to risk corrupt rendering of row images when the control is first |
123 |
> |
displayed. If necessary use "Application.QueueAsyncCall" to delay opening |
124 |
> |
of the dataset (see DBControlGrid examples) until the Form's Window has been created. |
125 |
> |
|
126 |
> |
8. DBControlGrid & IBDynamicGrid: Navigation keys should now work correctly with |
127 |
> |
a TDateEdit control located on an editor panel. |
128 |
> |
|
129 |
> |
9. TIBExtract: brought up-to-date plus many bug fixes. |
130 |
> |
|
131 |
> |
10. DBControlGrid: Removed memory leak when updating rows. |
132 |
> |
|
133 |
> |
11. TIBCMLocalDBSupport: fixed invalid free on upgrade. |
134 |

|
137 |
> |
1. IBCustomDataset: When calling SetCodePage, no longer request transliteration |
138 |
> |
when target codepage is CP_NONE. This is a workaround for |
139 |
> |
http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=30622. |
140 |
> |
|
141 |
> |
2. DBLog option removed from TIBStatisticalService - not supported by server |
142 |
> |
since Firebird 1.5. |
143 |
> |
|
144 |
> |
3. ibxscript: An error is no longer generated for "on commit preserve rows" or |
145 |
> |
similar. |
146 |
> |
|
147 |
> |
4. IBCodePage: updated mapping between codepages and character id. |
148 |
> |
|
149 |
> |
5. ftWideString and ftWideMemo withdrawn. There is no UTF16 character set in |
150 |
> |
Firebird. Character sets with a char width of two are not UTF16. |
151 |
> |
|
152 |
> |
6. Strings received from the database are now always transliterated into UTF8 |
153 |
> |
regardless of the database character set or connection character set. This |
154 |
> |
is for compatibility with the LCL. |
155 |
> |

|
158 |
> |
1. IBBlob: Defer reading of blob until read method called. This avoids having to |
159 |
> |
read in an entire blob just to get the size of the blob. General performance |
160 |
> |
improvement when opening datasets containing blobs. |
161 |
> |
|
162 |
> |
2. Clearing a Blob now sets the corresponding field's modified flag. |
163 |
> |
|
164 |
> |
3. IBLookupCombo: When not performing auto-complete, original query sort order |
165 |
> |
is now used. |
166 |
> |
|
167 |
> |
4. IBDynamicGrid: Add OnSelectEditor event. Allows editor panel to be dynamically |
168 |
> |
determined. |
169 |
> |
|
170 |
> |
5. IBDynamicGrid: Recompute column widths after dataset closed and re-opened. |
171 |
> |
|
172 |
> |
6. IBLookupCombo: LazUTF8 added to uses clause to avoid compilation problems post |
173 |
> |
lazarus 1.6.0 |
174 |
> |
|
175 |
> |
7. IBControls. Removed "runtime" from list of paths to avoid "multiple packages" |
176 |
> |
compilation error. |

179 |
> |
|
180 |
> |
1. No character set specified for connection: when a text blob is retrieved, the |
181 |
> |
character set is determined by looking up the native character set using then |
182 |
> |
Firebird API. Otherwise a text mode blob is assumed to have the same character |
183 |
> |
set as the connection. |
184 |
> |
|
185 |
> |
2. TIBGUIInterface: this is an internal interface. Minor type changes to allow |
186 |
> |
for Login Dialog returing a change to the database path. |
187 |
> |
|
188 |
> |
3. Design Time Database and Server login Dialogs now allow the Database Name/Server Name |
189 |
> |
to be changed from that given in the TIBDatabase/TIBServer component and for the |
190 |
> |
entered value to be saved on a project specific basis (design time only). |
191 |
> |
|
192 |
> |
4. IBDynamicGrid: TDBLookupCellEditor now compares its DataFieldName with the |
193 |
> |
column fieldname. If they are the same then it is acts as a look up for the KeyValue |
194 |
> |
Otherwise, it sets the column text to the selected ListField Value. |
195 |
> |
|
196 |
> |
5. IBDynamicGrid: Only visible columns are now taken into account When recalculating |
197 |
> |
column width. |
198 |
> |
|
199 |
> |
6. IBLookupComboEditBox: Fix error with autocomplete query when a RelationName is given |
200 |
> |
and a case insensitive search is requested. |
201 |
> |
|
202 |
> |
7. IBDynamicGrid: No longer ignores notifications removing Column Totals controls |
203 |
> |
or column ListSource. |
204 |
> |
|
205 |
> |
8. IBQuery: no longer performs unnecessary refresh of SQL Text (and hence avoids an |
206 |
> |
unprepare) when closing and the text has not changed. |
207 |
> |
|
208 |
> |
9. IBSQL: Base the cursor name on a GUID instead of a hexstr version of the class pointer. |
209 |
> |
Less likely to cause a cursor re-use error on Windows. |
210 |
> |
|
211 |
> |
10.SV5IPC: include workaround for OSX. FPC 3.0.0 has broken ipc module for darwin. |
212 |
> |
Expected to be fixed in 3.0.2. Hence workaround only applies to 3.0.0. |
213 |
> |
|
214 |
> |
11. TIBTreeView: Guard against nil destination on record changed |
215 |
> |
|
216 |
> |
12. AnsiString Code page support: TIBStringField.AsString and TIBMemoField.AsString now return a |
217 |
> |
string type with the code page set to reflect the returned field encoding after |
218 |
> |
Firebird driver transliteration, if any. FPC 3.0.0 onwards only. Behaviour unchanged for |
219 |
> |
earlier versions. |
220 |
> |
|
221 |
> |
13. AnsiString Code page support: Assigning to TIBStringField.AsString and TIBMemoField.AsString |
222 |
> |
will now result in transliteration to the code page specified for the Firebird driver |
223 |
> |
if the assigned string has a different code page. FPC 3.0.0 onwards only. |
224 |
> |
|
225 |
> |
14. TIBDatabase: new property UseDefaultSystemCodePage. When set any lc_ctype parameter |
226 |
> |
is ignored and the lc_ctype value, when the database is opened, is set to align with |
227 |
> |
the DefaultSystemCodePage (FPC 3.0.0 onwards). Normally, this is what you want and should ensure |
228 |
> |
platform independence. Note: this applies to FPC 3.0.0 and earlier versions. Pre FPC |
229 |
> |
3.0.0, when this property is true, the lc_ctype is UTF8 except under windows when |
230 |
> |
the GETACP is used to determine the Windows code page. |
231 |
> |
|
232 |
> |
15. TIBDatabase: new property DefaultCharSetName. This is the Firebird character set |
233 |
> |
name used as the lc_ctype when the database was opened. Only valid while the |
234 |
> |
Database is connected. |
235 |
> |
|
236 |
> |
16. TIBDatabase: new property DefaultCodePage (FPC >=3.0.0 only). This is the codepage |
237 |
> |
id that corresponds to the DefaultCharSetName. |
238 |

1. Unix: If Firebird Embedded Server shared object is loaded and a local database |
242 |
> |
path is given and database attach fails due to access permission issues on the |
243 |
> |
temp directory or security database, then the attach is retried with "localhost:" |
244 |
> |
prefixing the databasename. This should avoid problems when the database has to |
245 |
> |
be accessed by a local (e.g. classic) server and libfbembed is used. |
246 |
> |
|
247 |
> |
2. Windows: revised search order for Firebird DLL: |
248 |
> |
i. The Firebird Embedded Server in the application Directory. |
249 |
> |
ii. If the FIREBIRD environment variable is set then the directory this |
250 |
> |
points to is searched for the FB Client DLL and then then underlying |
251 |
> |
"bin" directory. |
252 |
> |
iii. Registry Key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Firebird Project\Firebird Server\Instances |
253 |
> |
is used to locate the Firebird installation directory and the underlying |
254 |
> |
"bin" directory is searched for the FB Client DLL. |
255 |
> |
iv. The Default installation directories C:\Program Files\Firebird\Firebird_2_x |
256 |
> |
are searched for the FB Client DLL. |
257 |
> |
v. The PATH Environment variable is used to search for the FB Client DLL. |
258 |
> |
vi. Finally the PATH Environment variable is used to search for IBASE.DLL. |
259 |
> |
|
260 |
> |
3. New Component: TIBXScript. This is an ISQL compatible SQL script execution engine. |
261 |
> |
See doc/readme.scriptengine and example applications. |
262 |
> |
|
263 |
> |
4. New Component: TIBlocalDBSupport. This is a TIBDatabase support component intended to |
264 |
> |
simplify the use of the embedded firebird server on both Linux and Windows platforms. |
265 |
> |
See dpc/readme.localdatabase and example applications. |
266 |
> |
|
267 |
> |
5. IBDynamicGrid: Reordering on column header click should now also work for |
268 |
> |
dynamic columns. |
269 |
> |
|
270 |
> |
6. ISQLMonitor: (Windows only). Mutex added to TMultilockGate to avoid race condition |
271 |
> |
between incrementing/decrementing the lock count and signalling the event. |
272 |
> |
|

IBX Change Log version (1.3-2) Tue, 26 Jan 2016 14:39:54 +0000 |
274 |

|
275 |
> |
1.3.2 was never formally released and only made available as beta copies. |
276 |
> |
|
277 |
> |
1. DBControlGrid,IBDynamicGrid: Ignore down arrow and up arrow in TCustomMemo |
278 |
> |
|
279 |
> |
2. IBDynamicGrid: Now deals correctly with a single column grid which has no indicator and autosize column |
280 |
> |
|
281 |
> |
3. IBLookupComboEditBox: reset timer on each key press - avoids timer going off too early |
282 |
> |
|
283 |
> |
4. IBDynamicGrid: Call event OnUpdateSortOrder even when aliasname not found in dataset |
284 |
> |
i.e. when it is a calculated field |
285 |
> |
|
286 |
> |
5. IBDynamicGrid: Fix problem selecting a different row when expanded row at end of grid. |
287 |
> |
This problem was due to a race condition between recalculating row heights and |
288 |
> |
determining which row was selected by the mouse click. The row height calculation |
289 |
> |
is now deferred by an extra trip round the message loop allowing the row to |
290 |
> |
be always calculated on the current grid layout rather than risking it being |
291 |
> |
calculated on the grid layout after the expanded row has been shrunk. |
292 |
> |
|
293 |
> |
6. IBLookupComboEditBox: avoid race condition between cm_killfocus and cm_exit on |
294 |
> |
Windows. |
295 |
> |
|
296 |
> |
7. TIBStringField: Now has two new public properties: CharacterSetName: string and CharacterSetSize: integer; |
297 |
> |
These properties allow the (Firebird) character set name for the field and the max number of bytes per character |
298 |
> |
to be determined at runtime. See doc/readme.charactersets.html. |
299 |
> |
|
300 |
> |
8. TIBWideStringField: This is a new field type with the same additional public properties as above and subclassed from |
301 |
> |
TWideStringField. This field type is used with the character size reported by Firebird is two. See doc/readme.charactersets.html. |
302 |
> |
|
303 |
> |
9. TIBMemoField and TIBWideMemoField: new field types with the same additional public properties as above and subclassed from |
304 |
> |
TMemoField and TWideMemoField respectively. These field types are used with Blob subtype 1 and a characterset size of |
305 |
> |
1, 3 or 4 (TIBMemoField) or 2 (TIBWideMemoField). See doc/readme.charactersets.html. |
306 |
> |
|
307 |
> |
Both also have a new published property "DisplayTextAsClassName". If false (default) the displaytext is generated |
308 |
> |
from the blob text by truncating the string to the displaywidth (in characters not bytes). A displaywidth of zero |
309 |
> |
implies no truncation. |
310 |
> |
|
311 |
> |
10. IBLookupComboEditBox: Force autocomplete when EditingDone called and timer active. |
312 |
> |
|
313 |
> |
11. IBDynamicGrid: Call DataSet.Append when entering edit mode and dataset empty and not in insert state |
314 |
> |
(avoids "Not in Edit Mode" error). |
315 |
> |
|
316 |
> |
12. IBDynamicGrid: Correctly resize grid when one column width plus indicator. |
317 |
> |
|
318 |
> |
13. IBDynamicGrid: Ensure Editor Panel has focus when shown - avoids Windows API calling |
319 |
> |
DBGrid.DoExit on subsequent mouse click (e.g. on child control such as a tabbed page control. |
320 |
> |
|
321 |
> |
14. IBDynamicGrid: ignore up, down tab and return when editorpanel open and focus in a TCustomGrid descendent. |
322 |
> |
|
323 |
> |
15. DBControlGrid: Stop flashing grid when dataset closed and then re-opened while DisabledControls |
324 |
> |
|
325 |
> |
16. IBQuery: Bug fixed that prevented SQL being set programmatically once the Parser had been invoked. |
326 |

IBX Change Log version (1.3-1) Sat, 18 Jul 2015 13:30:50 +0100 |
330 |
> |
|
331 |
> |
1. OnCloseUp Event Handler added to TDBLookupProperties |
332 |
> |
|
333 |
> |
2. IBDynamicGrid: Call to OnEditorPanelHide is now last editor hide action - avoids |
334 |
> |
problem with row size when exception is called. |
335 |
> |
|
336 |
> |
3. IBLookupComboEditBox: Force pending autocomplete on combobox exit. |
337 |
> |
|
338 |
> |
4. IBDynamicGrid and DBControlGrid: Keyhandler now ignores up, down, escape and return keys if |
339 |
> |
in a TCustomComboBox and ignores return key if in a TCustomMemo |
340 |
> |
|
341 |
> |
5. IBLookupComboEditBox: Ensure that KeyValue is set correctly when full text |
342 |
> |
keyed in i.e. when autocomplete not performed |
343 |
> |
|
344 |
> |
6. Cleanup of "Uses" clauses and add console mode support. IBX should now support |
345 |
> |
console mode applications with all LCL required functions (builtin dialogs and |
346 |
> |
cursor management) centralised in the IBDialogs unit. As long as "IBDialogs" is |
347 |
> |
not included in your project, IBX should compile and link with a console mode program. |
348 |
> |
See consolemode example and its "readme"for further guidence. DO NOT add the ibexpress package to a |
349 |
> |
console mode application or the IDE will automatically assume that your |
350 |
> |
application is GUI based. Instead, you should include the ibexpressconsolemode package. |
351 |
> |
|
352 |
> |
IMPORTANT NOTE: IBDialogs must be included in GUI applications in order |
353 |
> |
to use the built in dialogs and cursor management. IBDialogs is |
354 |
> |
included by default if "ibexpress" is in your project source's "uses" clause. |
355 |
> |
This should be the case for all projects created through the IDE. This is why |
356 |
> |
you do not want to add the ibexpress package to console mode applications. The |
357 |
> |
ibexpressconsolemode package has been created to allow console mode programs |
358 |
> |
to avoid adding LCL dependencies when using IBX, while still having the |
359 |
> |
unit search paths set up correctly. |
360 |
> |
|
361 |
> |
Existing users should check to ensure that the "ibexpress" unit is included in |
362 |
> |
each project's source file (*.lpr). |
363 |
> |
|
364 |
> |
You may find that in order for the IDE to recognise that ibexpressconsolemode |
365 |
> |
exists, you have to first open the package in the IDE and then close it. This |
366 |
> |
adds it to the most recently accessed packages list. To make it permanently |
367 |
> |
available, add the package name to lazarus' staticpackages.inc file. |
368 |
> |
|
369 |
> |
Thanks to Julio Jiménez for suggesting support of console mode. |
370 |
> |
|
371 |
> |
7. SQL Parser can now accept quoted strings that include new lines |
372 |
> |
|
373 |
> |
8. IBDynamicGrid: Lookup Cell Editor - the cursor is now positioned at end |
374 |
> |
of text on start of edit. This is particularly useful when tabbing to a |
375 |
> |
column and then inserting text. |
376 |
> |
|
377 |
> |
9. New Examples provided for IB Services and ISQLMonitor. |
378 |
> |
|
379 |
> |
10. Fix error when writing to blob streams that recorded only the last buffer |
380 |
> |
write in the blob stream. In most cases, this did not cause a problem as the |
381 |
> |
IB Blob Stream is written in a single write. However, with the TDBImage, write |
382 |
> |
of a graphic type prefix was lost which caused a problem when the image could |
383 |
> |
not be automatically recognised. |
384 |
> |
|
385 |
> |
11. Improve generation of random cursor names in TIBSQL - avoid risk of "cursor |
386 |
> |
already open" errors due to random numbers used for the cursor name being identical. |
387 |
> |
|
388 |
> |
12. IBTable: corrected error that could result in an "Index out of bounds" error |
389 |
> |
when opening the table and the Primary Key is the last or only column in the |
390 |
> |
table. Thanks to Rick Hoover for the fix. |
391 |
> |
|
392 |
> |
13. Fix TIBDatabase initialisation of lc_ctype under unix. Set to "UTF8" instead |
393 |
> |
of "UTF-8", and update list of available database character sets. Existing |
394 |
> |
users should check the current lc_ctype setting in their applications. |

IBX Change Log version (1.2-4) Sat, 09 May 2015 12:38:29 +0100 |
397 |
> |
|
398 |
> |
1. Firebird Services: avoid List Index error when opening a service with an |
399 |
> |
empty Params property. |
400 |
> |
|
401 |
> |
2. IBControls: Fix problem with new link mechanism introduced in 1.2.3. |
402 |
> |
Link now set up in Loaded method - avoids occasional failure to apply |
403 |
> |
SQL markup on initial open. |
404 |
> |
|
405 |
> |
3. "Employees" example performance improvements when scrolling. |
406 |
> |
|
407 |
> |
4. DBControlGrid: Correctly handle edit panel removal when panel is child control of a |
408 |
> |
TFrame. Force recaching of selected frame to avoid GTK race (results in a |
409 |
> |
random image cached). |
410 |
> |
|
411 |
> |
5. DBControlGrid: Should now react to changes in panel height at run time. |
412 |
> |
|
413 |
> |
6. IBDynamicGrid: Redraws rows below on panel editor hide - avoids blank space at end of grid |
414 |
> |
even when further rows exist. |
415 |
> |
|
416 |
> |
7. DBControlGrid: DefaultRowHeight is no longer a published property as it should |
417 |
> |
always be derived from panel height and setting this property can cause confusion. |
418 |
> |
Note for existing projects: to avoid a missing property error at run time, |
419 |
> |
each form using the DBControlGrid must be opened, updated and saved in the IDE |
420 |
> |
in order to remove the property value from the lfm. |

IBX Change Log version (1.2-3) Tue, 14 Apr 2015 14:11:17 +0100 |
424 |

|
425 |
> |
1. TIBStoredProc. Prepare now called by ParamByName to avoid need to always |
426 |
> |
call Prepare before setting parameter values. |
427 |
> |
|
428 |
> |
2. Error message on ParamByName (all cases) not found now includes name of missing parameter. |
429 |
> |
|
430 |
> |
3. Code tidyup and more robust handling of dsql information result vector. |
431 |
> |
|
432 |
> |
4. Support for centralised handling of transaction status changes. TIBTransaction |
433 |
> |
has been given additional events "AfterEdit", "AfterInsert", "AfterDelete", "AfterPost" |
434 |
> |
and "AfterExecQuery". The first three are called after the same event is called |
435 |
> |
for an IBCustomDataSet descendent using the Transaction. The fourth is called |
436 |
> |
after a call to TIBSQL.ExecQuery, again using this transaction. These new events |
437 |
> |
enable monitoring of transaction status changes for a given transaction to be |
438 |
> |
handled in a single place. For example, when a change to the dataset occurs |
439 |
> |
an indicator can be set that shows the user that in order to save changes, |
440 |
> |
the transaction should be committed. Rather than doing this per dataset, this |
441 |
> |
can now be done per transaction. |
442 |
> |
|
443 |
> |
5. TDataSet.CheckBrowseMode automatically posts changes to the current row when |
444 |
> |
the dataset is scrolled. However, any changes to the current row are, by default, |
445 |
> |
discarded when the dataset is closed. TIBDataSet, TIBQuery and TIBTable now |
446 |
> |
have a new property "DataSetCloseAction" that adds automatic posting of changes |
447 |
> |
on dataset close. If this property is set to dcDiscardChanges (default) then the |
448 |
> |
behaviour is unchanged from previous versions. if the value is set to dcSaveChanges |
449 |
> |
then IBX will attempt to post any unsaved changes before the dataset is closed |
450 |
> |
(and after the BeforeClose event handler is called). The exception is when the |
451 |
> |
dataset is being closed as a result of a transaction rollback. In this case, |
452 |
> |
no action is taken and any unsaved changes are discarded. This avoids both |
453 |
> |
unnecessary overhead and the risk that a validation error may occur in the Post |
454 |
> |
raising an exception and thereby preventing a rollback. |
455 |
> |
|
456 |
> |
6. String Field sizes and Display Widths should now be correct for multi-byte character sets. |
457 |
> |
In earlier versions, the Display Width was set to the maximum byte width rather than the character |
458 |
> |
width. Display Widths are now corrected by dividing by the max byte width per character. |
459 |
> |
For UTF8 character sets, the byte width is four and hence the Display Width will be |
460 |
> |
the byte width divided by 4. The byte width of each character set is determined |
461 |
> |
dynamically when the database connection is estabished from the RDB$CHARACTER_SETS |
462 |
> |
system table. (see also http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=27766). |
463 |
> |
|
464 |
> |
7. SQLParser will now correctly parse SQL Text which contains ':' within quoted string. |
465 |
> |
|
466 |
> |
8. IBLookupComboEditBox: List should now always be restored to full list when the |
467 |
> |
control loses focus. Default Key press default interval reduced to 200ms. |
468 |
> |
|
469 |
> |
9. DBControlGrid: Ensure that selection is changed to newly appended row, even |
470 |
> |
when dataset rows are less than visible rows. |
471 |
> |
|
472 |
> |
10. IBDynamicGrid: Editor Panel is not shown on indicator click if Datasource |
473 |
> |
does not exist or DataSet is empty. More responsive on dataset open. New event |
474 |
> |
OnRestorePosition. Column sort disabled if no header row. |
475 |
> |
|
476 |
> |
11. IBTreeView: improved handling of response to "Add Node". Avoid scrolling dataset |
477 |
> |
while dataset state is dsInsert. Avoids posting errors. |
478 |
> |
|
479 |
> |
12. IBControls: New mechanism for distributing UpdateSQL and UpdateParams events. This is to |
480 |
> |
avoid conflict with DisableControls/EnableControls with Master/Detail linked tables. |
481 |
> |
|
482 |
> |
13. IBLookupComboEditBox: Now avoids SQL Errors when combo box text contains single quotes. |
483 |
> |
|
484 |
> |
14. TIBDataSet and TIBQuery: new Event - OnValidatePost. This event has been introduced |
485 |
> |
to solve a specific problem. That is when the dataset cursor is moved (e.g. by |
486 |
> |
a grid mouse click and the current row is being edited or inserted. In this case, TDataset |
487 |
> |
always "posts" the current record regardless or whether or not it may be more appropriate |
488 |
> |
to cancel any changes; the post occurs before the "BeforeScroll" event fires due to the way the |
489 |
> |
"MoveBy" function is implemented by TDataSet. The OnValidatePost event is called |
490 |
> |
as the first action of the "Post" method and allows the handler to convert the Post |
491 |
> |
into a Cancel if that is the appropriate action on moving to a different row. This is |
492 |
> |
achieved by returning with "CancelPost" argument set to true. Note that an exception could be |
493 |
> |
raised here, but it may still be more appropriate to validate a post and signal |
494 |
> |
a problem in the "BeforePost" event handler. See readme.automaticposts.xhtml) |
495 |
> |
|
496 |
> |
15. On Unix derived systems, the Firebird library name can now be given as a colon |
497 |
> |
separated list. Each library name on the list is tried in turn, in left to right |
498 |
> |
order with the first found being used as the firebird library. By default, on Linux, |
499 |
> |
the library name list is 'libfbembed.so.2.5:libfbembed.so.2.1:libfbclient.so.2'. This can be |
500 |
> |
overidden by the FBLIB environment variable or the OnGetLibraryName function. |
501 |
> |
|
502 |
> |
Note: when using the libfbembed.so, if you prefix the database name with "localhost:" |
503 |
> |
then it will still attempt to access the database via the Firebird Server and will |
504 |
> |
require a username and password. If only the pathname is given, then the username |
505 |
> |
and password should be omitted and the unix file permissions are used to grant |
506 |
> |
access. |

|
1. A new IBControl - TDBControlGrid has been added. TDBControlGrid a lookalike |
511 |
|
rather than a clone for the Delphi TDBCrtlGrid. TDBControlGrid is a single column grid |
512 |
|
that replicates a TWinControl - typically a TPanel or a TFrame in each row. Each row |
513 |
< |
correspondes to a row of the linked DataSource. Any data aware control on the |
513 |

corresponds to a row of the linked DataSource. Any data aware control on the |
514 |
|
replicated (e.g.) TPanel will then appear to have the appropriate value for the row. |
515 |
|
|
516 |
|
2. As suggested by Julio Jiménez, a new property "SQLHourGlass" has been added to TIBDatabase. |
517 |
< |
When set to false (default true), the Hour Glass cursor is surpressed and no cursor change |
517 |
> |
When set to false (default true), the Hour Glass cursor is supcpressed and no cursor change |
518 |
|
takes place during database access. This may be useful when there are performance issues with |
519 |
|
the change of cursor. Setting the property to false suppresses the change of cursor. |
520 |
|
|
524 |
|
making all changes permanent immediately rather than when the transaction is explicitly |
525 |
|
committed. |
526 |

4. Experiental support for the Firebird 3 SQL_BOOLEAN type has been added while still |
528 |

1. An internal select SQL Parser is now available for TIBCustomDataset descendents. |
537 |
|
This is typically used during an "OnBeforeOpen" event handler to manipulate the |
549 |
|
TIBLookupComboEditBox is a TDBLookupComboBox descendent that implements "autocomplete" |
550 |
|
of typed in text and "autoinsert" of new entries. Autocomplete uses SQL manipulation |
551 |
|
to revise the available list and restrict it to items that are prefixed by the |
552 |
< |
typed text (either case sensitive or case insenstive). Autoinsert allows a |
552 |
> |
typed text (either case sensitive or case insensitive). Autoinsert allows a |
553 |
|
newly typed entry to be added to the list dataset and included in the available |
554 |
|
list items. |
