2	+
3	+	1. Firebird 4 support added.
4	+
5	+	2. New FB4 data types TIME WITH TIME ZONE, TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE, DECFLOAT and
6	+	extended precision NUMERIC fields are supported.
7	+
8	+	3. TFmtBCDField is used to support access to DECFLOAT and extended precision NUMERIC fields.
9	+
10	+	4. TIBDateTimeField and TIBTimeField are introduced in support of TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE
11	+	and TIME WITH TIME ZONE fields. These inherit from TDateTimeField.
12	+
13	+	5. IBExtract now supports FB4 enhancements:
14	+	- new data types as above
15	+	- Identity column extensions
16	+	- Default user role
17	+	- SQL Security clause for Database, Tables, Procedures, Functions and Triggers
18	+	- Internal Functions
19	+
20	+	6. IBExtract: new event: OnExtractLines.
21	+
22	+	7. IBExtract: revert create trigger to legacy syntax see Firebird CORE-6243, CORE-5545 and DOC-145
23	+
24	+	8. IBXServices: Server version no. parsing now allows any letter before major version number
25	+	and is no longer restricted to 'V' e.g. "LI-T4.0.0.1436 Firebird 4.0 Beta 1"
26	+
27	+	9. TIBDataSet and TIBQuery: new property TZTextOption. Used to determine the default
28	+	format for rendering a time zone.
29	+
30	+	10. TIBDataSet and TIBQuery: new property DefaultTZDate. Used to provide the default date
31	+	to convert TIME WITH TIME ZONE data type values to and from GMT.
32	+
33	+	11. Unit name IBTypes changed to IBInternals. Internal interfaces TIBGUIInterface and TIBTimerInf renamed to
34	+	IIBGUIInterface and IIBTimerInf respectively.
35	+
36	+	12. Constants: DPBPrefix and TPBPrefix moved to IB unit. DPBConstantNames and TPBConstantNames
37	+	now accessible as properties of TIBDatabase and TIBTransaction respectively.
38	+
39	+	13. String Fields: when a fixed character with (CHAR) field is returned, it is now
40	+	truncated to its fixed character width rather than being right padded with
41	+	white space to the maximum data size.
42	+
43	+	14. TIBTable.Empty table. In additional to deleting all records in the underlying
44	+	table, the internal buffers are now also flushed ensuring that the TIBTable is
45	+	also empty.
46	+
47	+	15. TBatchSQLStatementReader: Line buffer is now cleared on call to reset.
48	+
49	+	16. TIBXControlService descendents: DatabaseName may now be set using a database
50	+	connect string. The database name is extracted from the connect string.
51	+
52	+	17. DBControlGrid: Minor bug fixes. avoid AV on form closure, avoid black panel
53	+
54	+	18. TIBExtract: Data type of COMPUTED By columns is no longer included in SQL.
55	+
56	+	19. Local database on Linux and with legacy API and FB 2.5 embedded server: fixed problem with password
57	+	not being present as required.
58	+
59	+	20. IBTreeView split into DBTreeView and IBTreeView. This former is an IBX indepedent
60	+	version that can be customised to work with other database drivers.
61	+
62	+	21. ISQLMonitor: use platform specific LineEnding to delimit messages. Avoids
63	+	unnecessary CR at end of line on Unix platforms.
64	+
65	+	22. ISQLMonitor: Unix: Default semaphore timeout increased from 1 second to 10
66	+	seconds in order to reduce risk of message loss.
67	+
68	+	23. ISQLMonitor: read and write count statistics now available via:
69	+	property TIBSQLMonitor.ReadCount;
70	+	IIBSQLMonitorHook.GetWriteCount: integer;
71	+
72	+	24. ISQLMonitor tidy up and unit split. IPC functions moved to new unit IBIPC.

74		IBX Change Log  version (2.3-5 Build 12350) Tue, 25 Aug 2020 16:11:02 +0100
75
76		1.  TIBStringField: when a string value is read from a dataset buffer, if the
#	Line 10 | Line 83 | IBX Change Log  version (2.3-5 Build 123
83		SQLFilterParams property is assumed to be a SQL condition clause and
84		ANDed into the Where clause of the SQL Select statement provided as a
85		dataset property. Each such SQL condition thus acts as an additional filter
86	<	on the dataset. (Not yet tested)
86	>	on the dataset.
87
88		3.  The Filtered property inherited from TDataset is no longer used for SQL (server
89		side filters).
#	Line 45 | Line 118 | IBX Change Log  version (2.3-5 Build 123
118		added back in.
119
120		12. IBCustomDataSet: CanInsert, CanEdit, CanDelete and CanRefresh updated to return
121	<	false if query contains white space and not just empty.
121	>	false if query contains only white space and not just empty.
122
123		12. IBCustomDataset: Blob data is now cleared when TDataSet.Cancel is called. This
124		should ensure that (e.g.) a TDBMemo is correctly refreshed after a dataset edit
125		is cancelled.
126
127	+	13. IBCustomDataset: SetArrayIntf should no longer cause an access violation if
128	+	called on a null field.
129	+
130	+	14. IBCustomDataSet: An access violation should no longer occur when calling CancelUpdates
131	+	results in an empty dataTC86                Client side Filtered Dataset    1       X
132	+	set.
133	+
134	+	15. IBCustomDataSet: OnUpdateError should now be called in all circumstances when
135	+	a cached update is applied and an exception is raised.
136	+
137	+	16. IBCustomDataSet: Avoid access violation when SetBookmarkData called with nil pointer.
138	+
139	+	17. Console Mode Local Database support: backup/restore should now work correctly.
140	+
141	+	18. Local Database Support: if an upgrade fails, a downgrade is now performed if
142	+	possible and an exception raised.
143	+
144	+	19. MinimumVersionNo added to Local Database Support. Database will not open if
145	+	below this version no. and upgrade not possible.
