28		1. New property for TIBDatabase and TIBXServicesConnection. This is "ConfigOverrides"
29		and is used to override the default settings in the client side "firebird.conf" This
#	Line 20 | Line 45 | IBX Change Log  version (2.3-3 Build 112
45		is a "convenience" property. If set the "WireCompression=true" is added to the
46		ConfigOverrides. If unchecked then this setting is removed.
47
48	+	3. TIBExtract: 64-bit integer types are now correctly extracted as "BIGINT" and
49	+	not "INT64".
50	+
51	+	4. New published properties for TIBCSVDataOut, TIBInsertStmtsOut and TIBBlockFormatOut
52	+	These are:
53	+	property TimestampFormat: string;
54	+	property DateFormat: string;
55	+	property TimeFormat: string;
56	+
57	+	Respectively, these provide the date time format templates for SQL types: TIMESTAMP,
58	+	DATETIME and TIME. The format strings use the standard FPC date/time format
59	+	characters (see https://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/sysutils/formatchars.html).
60	+
61	+	If any of the above properties are set to an empty string, then the locale default
62	+	is used. This uses the ShortDateFormat and the LongTimeFormat. In timestamp, the
63	+	locale default is extended by appending '.zzz' to include milliseconds.
64	+
65	+	TIBCSVDataOut by default sets these properties to the empty string, while the other
66	+	two use: 'yyyy.mm.dd hh:nn:ss.zzz', 'yyyy.mm.dd' and 'hh:nn:ss.zzz' respectively.
67	+
68	+	5. New published property for TIBCSVDataOut:
69	+	property QuoteStrings: boolean (default true)
70	+
71	+	If false then strings are unquoted, otherwise, the QuoteChar property value is
72	+	used to delimit each and every string in the output.
73	+
74	+	6. New published properties for TIBCSVDataOut:
75	+	property FieldSeparator: string;
76	+	property HeaderSeparator: string;
77	+
78	+	Respectively, these provide the separator character(s) used to separate fields
79	+	in data and header rows. Both default to ','.
80	+
81	+	7. New published properties for TIBCSVDataOut and TIBBlockFormatOut:
82	+	TOnFormatTextString = procedure(sender: TObject; var TextString: string) of object;
83	+	property OnFormatTextString;
84	+
85	+	This event handler can be used to process text strings before they are included
86	+	in the output e.g. to replace unprintable characters with alternative strings.
87	+	This only applies to columns with an SQL Type of SQL_VARYING and SQL_TEXT.
88	+
89	+	8. TIBDataSet now raises an exception when ParamByName called with an invalid parameter name.
90	+	Uses "FindParam" if in order to find out if a parameter with a given name exists
91	+	and without raising and exception if it does not.
92	+
93	+	9. TIBQuery now uses IBX SQL Parser instead of the TParams SQL parser in order to ensure
94	+	consistency with SQL queries.
95	+
96	+	10. CaseSensitiveParameterNames property added to TIBSQL, TIBDataSet and TIBQuery.
97	+	When true, SQL statement parameter names are parsed case sensitive. Note for
98	+	TIBDataSet only applies to Select query.
99	+
100	+	11. IBEvents: removing a TIBEvent component from a form should no longer result in
101	+	an IDE exception.
102	+
103	+	12. LocalDBSupport: initial database creation should now work correctly
104	+	when the schema source is an sql file.
105	+
106	+	13. TIBCMLocalDBSupport: new event handler "property OnProgressEvent: TOnProgressEvent"
107	+	when defined, this handler will be called by the internal TIBXScript during
108	+	initial database creation when the schema source is an sql file and may be used
109	+	to provide a visual indication of progress in console mode.
110	+
111	+	14. TCustomIBLocalDBSupport: new public property "InOnCreateDB: boolean". This is set
112	+	to true while a new local database is being created and its schema populated.
113	+	Useful in (e.g.) TIBDatabase.OnAfterConnect handler to suppress actions
114	+	when the database is disconnected/connected during the create DB procedure.
115	+
116	+	15. TIBXScript: any User/password parameters found in a CREATE DATABASE statement
117	+	are now always ignored and replaced by the user name and password provided as
118	+	the login parameters for the TIBDatabase referenced from the TIBXScript. The
119	+	IgnoreCreateDatabase property still applies and the CREATE DATABASE statement is
120	+	completely ignored if this property is true.
121	+
122	+	16. Code tidyup in IBTreeView: Node properties initialisation moved from TIBTreeView.AddNodes
123	+	to TIBTreeView.Added. An OnAddition event handler is no longer needed to initialise
124	+	ImageIndex and SelectImageIndex values on AddNode.
125	+
126	+	17. TIBDatabase.Attachment and TIBXServicesConnection.ServicesIntf properties are now
127	+	read/write. This should enabled (e.g.) multiple instances of TIBDatabase to share
128	+	the same database connection.
129	+
130	+	18. TIBDataSet and TIBQuery now support the TDataSet "Filter" property.
131	+	if provided, this should be an conditional SQL expression suitable for
132	+	including in an SQL Select statement "where" clause. If non-empty and the
133	+	"Filtered" property is true then the SQL expression provided as the value of
134	+	the "Filter" property is "ANDed" with any existing condition statement
135	+	in the SQL statement's "Where" clause.
136	+
137	+	If the "Filter" property is set at run time, the "Filtered" property is true
138	+	and the dataset is already open, then the dataset is closed and re-opened automatically.
139	+
140	+	The "Filter" condition may include IBX style parameters. In which case, their
141	+	value must be set by the dataset's "OnBeforeOpen" event handler.
142	+
143	+	This is a public property for TIBDataSet and TIBQuery query and intended for
144	+	use at run time.
145	+
146	+	Note: The property is a published property of TIBTable. The TIBTable functionality
147	+	is unaffected by this change.
