1 + IBX Change Log  version                   (2.0.3) tba, 24 Feb 2017 12:17:53 +0000
2 +
3 + 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 + IBX Change Log  version                   (2.0-2) Fri, 24 Feb 2017 12:17:53 +0000
13 +
14 + 1. TIBDatabase.CreateDatabase: extract full DB Name from SQL using reg ex in order to
15 +   include remote system name.
16 +
17 + 2. TIBExtract: No longer include comment header and COMMIT statement for empty
18 +   tables when data included in output.
19 +
20 + 3. Profiling: IBSQL now has conditional compilation flags to enable query performance
21 +   and timing information to be written to stdout. This may be used to locate
22 +   performance bottlenecks.
23 +
24 + 4. SQLParser: only call "OnChanging" event handler when value is different.
25 +
26 + 5. IBDynamicGrid: Update handling of navigation keys for a TDateEdit
27 +
28 + 6. IBCustomDataset: Set internalunprepared flag when transaction ends. This ensures
29 +   that BindFields is called when the query is next activated. Avoids FieldName
30 +   not found error.
31 +
32 + IBX Change Log  version                  (2.0-1) Mon, 09 Jan 2017 15:31:49 +0000
33 +
34 + 1. TIBEvents: Fix uninitialised variable that could result in lost events.
35 +
36 + 2. TIBExtract: Added support for FB3 "USAGE" privilege.
37 +
38 + 3. TIBExtract: data formatted as Charset set "octets" is now output using
39 +   hexadecimal notation.
40 +
41 + 4. TIBExtract: Binary Blobs and array data can now be embedded in INSERT statements
42 +   using a simple XML format.
43 +
44 + 5. TIBExtract: extract of individual Triggers and Stored Procedures can now include
45 +   grants to these objects.
46 +
47 + 6. TIBExtract: Stored Procedures and Views output in dependency order to avoid
48 +   dependency problems restoring complex databases.
49 +
50 + 7. TIBXScript: This component has been restructured to allow for the processing of
51 +   embedded XML in INSERT statements and to support interactive sources in addition
52 +   to non-interactive data sources such as files.
53 +
54 + 8. TIBXScript: CREATE DATABASE, DROP DATABASE, CONNECT statements are now supported.
55 +
56 + 9. TIBXScript: ISQL compatiable Set statements are now supported:
57 +   SET SQL DIALECT
58 +   SET TERM
59 +   SET AUTODDL
60 +   SET BAIL
61 +   SET ECHO
62 +   SET COUNT
63 +   SET STATS
64 +   SET NAMES <character set>
65 +
66 + 10. IBVersion unit added to hold current IBX Version Number information.
67 +
68 + 11. TIBExtract: Use character rather than byte length for VarChar procedure arguments.,
69 +    and domain definitions.
70 +
71 + 12. TIBExtract: Triggers now use SQL2003 syntax and database and transaction triggers
72 +    fully supported.
73 +
74 + 13. TIBExtract: when a database dump includes data, the generator values are now also set.
75 +
76 + 14: IBSQLEdit: Unit LCLPlatformDef added to uses clauses for lazarus 1.7 and later.
77 +
78 + IBX Change Log  version     (2.0-0) Tue, 06 Dec 2016 10:33:44 +0000
79 +
80 + See also doc/IBX4LazarusGuide.pdf for important information on
81 + upgrading to IBX2.
82 +
83 + 1. Size property of TIBStringField is now the width in characters of the field
84 +   and not the byte length. This applies only to multi-byte character sets such
85 +   as UTF8. The original approach aligned with TStringField. However, the TStringField
86 +   code is not recognised as a bug and hence this change to align the behaviour.
87 +   The TStringField change is expected in fpc 3.2.0.
88 +
89 + 2. A new property AutoFieldSize: boolean has been added to TIBStringField. When
90 +   true (default) then Size property value saved in the lfm is ignored. Size is
91 +   always set from the dynamic information read from the database. It is unclear
92 +   why anyone would want to override this and set Size to false.
93 +
94 + 3. ibxscript: should now handle correctly a Case..End statement within a procedure
95 +   block.
96 +
97 + 4. IBDatabase: new property - CreateIfNotExists. If true and database does not
98 +   exist when an attempt is made to connect to it (run time only) then an attempt
99 +   is made to create the database.
100 +
101 + 5. IBDatabase: new event - OnCreateDatabase. This event is called after a database
102 +   has been successfully created as a result of a call to CreateDatabase or when
103 +   creating a database after it was found not to exist.
104 +
105 + 6.  DBControlGrid: a race condition could result in the wrong row image being
106 +    written to the cache. This has been avoided by a trip round the message
107 +    loop before rendering the row image.
108 +
109 + 7.  DBControlGrid: It is strongly recommended not to open the source DataSet for
110 +    a DBControlGrid during a Form's "OnShow" event handler. Under GTK2 this is
111 +    known to risk corrupt rendering of row images when the control is first
112 +    displayed. If necessary use "Application.QueueAsyncCall" to delay opening
113 +    of the dataset (see DBControlGrid examples) until the Form's Window has been created.
114 +
115 + 8.  DBControlGrid & IBDynamicGrid: Navigation keys should now work correctly with
116 +    a TDateEdit control located on an editor panel.
117 +
118 + 9.  TIBExtract: brought up-to-date plus many bug fixes.
119 +
120 + 10. DBControlGrid: Removed memory leak when updating rows.
121 +
122 + 11. TIBCMLocalDBSupport: fixed invalid free on upgrade.
123 +
124 + IBX Change Log  version                                           (1.4-3) Thu, 22 Sep 2016 18:10:15 +0100
125 +
126 + 1. IBCustomDataset: When calling SetCodePage, no longer request transliteration
127 +   when target codepage is CP_NONE. This is a workaround for
128 +   http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=30622.
129 +
130 + 2. DBLog option removed from TIBStatisticalService - not supported by server
131 +   since Firebird 1.5.
132 +
133 + 3. ibxscript: An error is no longer generated for "on commit preserve rows" or
134 +   similar.
135 +
136 + 4. IBCodePage: updated mapping between codepages and character id.
137 +
138 + 5. ftWideString and ftWideMemo withdrawn. There is no UTF16 character set in
139 +   Firebird. Character sets with a char width of two are not UTF16.
140 +
141 + 6. Strings received from the database are now always transliterated into UTF8
142 +   regardless of the database character set or connection character set. This
143 +   is for compatibility with the LCL.
144 +
145 + IBX Change Log  version  (1.4-2) Thu, 22 Sep 2016 15:25:27 +0100
146 +
147 + 1. IBBlob: Defer reading of blob until read method called. This avoids having to
148 +   read in an entire blob just to get the size of the blob. General performance
149 +   improvement when opening datasets containing blobs.
150 +
151 + 2. Clearing a  Blob now sets the corresponding field's modified flag.
152 +
153 + 3. IBLookupCombo: When not performing auto-complete, original query sort order
154 +   is now used.
155 +
156 + 4. IBDynamicGrid: Add OnSelectEditor event. Allows editor panel to be dynamically
157 +   determined.
158 +
159 + 5. IBDynamicGrid: Recompute column widths after dataset closed and re-opened.
160 +
161 + 6. IBLookupCombo: LazUTF8 added to uses clause to avoid compilation problems post
162 +   lazarus 1.6.0
163 +
164 + 7. IBControls. Removed "runtime" from list of paths to avoid "multiple packages"
165 +   compilation error.
166 +
167 + IBX Change Log  version                                 (1.4-1) Tue, 17 May 2016 09:14:51 +0100
168 +
169 + 1. No character set specified for connection: when a text blob is retrieved, the
170 +  character set is determined by looking up the native character set using then
171 +  Firebird API. Otherwise a text mode blob is assumed to have the same character
172 +  set as the connection.
173 +
174 + 2. TIBGUIInterface: this is an internal interface. Minor type changes to allow
175 +   for Login Dialog returing a change to the database path.
176 +
177 + 3. Design Time Database and Server login Dialogs now allow the Database Name/Server Name
178 +   to be changed from that given in the TIBDatabase/TIBServer component and for the
179 +   entered value to be saved on a project specific basis (design time only).
180 +
181 + 4. IBDynamicGrid: TDBLookupCellEditor now compares its DataFieldName with the
182 +   column fieldname. If they are the same then it is acts as a look up for the KeyValue
183 +   Otherwise, it sets the column text to the selected ListField Value.
184 +
185 + 5. IBDynamicGrid: Only visible columns are now taken into account When recalculating
186 +   column width.
187 +
188 + 6. IBLookupComboEditBox: Fix error with autocomplete query when a RelationName is given
189 +   and a case insensitive search is requested.
190 +
191 + 7. IBDynamicGrid: No longer ignores notifications removing Column Totals controls
192 +   or column ListSource.
193 +
194 + 8. IBQuery: no longer performs unnecessary refresh of SQL Text (and hence avoids an
195 +   unprepare) when closing and the text has not changed.
196 +
197 + 9. IBSQL: Base the cursor name on a GUID instead of a hexstr version of the class pointer.
198 +   Less likely to cause a cursor re-use error on Windows.
199 +
200 + 10.SV5IPC: include workaround for OSX. FPC 3.0.0 has broken ipc module for darwin.
201 +   Expected to be fixed in 3.0.2. Hence workaround only applies to 3.0.0.
202 +
203 + 11. TIBTreeView: Guard against nil destination on record changed
204 +
205 + 12. AnsiString Code page support: TIBStringField.AsString and TIBMemoField.AsString now return a
206 +    string type with the code page set to reflect the returned field encoding after
207 +    Firebird driver transliteration, if any.  FPC 3.0.0 onwards only. Behaviour unchanged for
208 +    earlier versions.
209 +
210 + 13. AnsiString Code page support: Assigning to TIBStringField.AsString and TIBMemoField.AsString
211 +    will now result in transliteration to the code page specified for the Firebird driver
212 +    if the assigned string has a different code page. FPC 3.0.0 onwards only.
213 +
214 + 14. TIBDatabase: new property UseDefaultSystemCodePage. When set any lc_ctype parameter
215 +    is ignored and the lc_ctype value, when the database is opened, is set to align with
216 +    the DefaultSystemCodePage (FPC 3.0.0 onwards). Normally, this is what you want and should ensure
217 +    platform independence. Note: this applies to FPC 3.0.0 and earlier versions. Pre FPC
218 +    3.0.0, when this property is true, the lc_ctype is UTF8 except under windows when
219 +    the GETACP is used to determine the Windows code page.
220 +
221 + 15. TIBDatabase: new property DefaultCharSetName. This is the Firebird character set
222 +    name used as the lc_ctype when the database was opened. Only valid while the
223 +    Database is connected.
224 +
225 + 16. TIBDatabase: new property DefaultCodePage (FPC >=3.0.0 only). This is the codepage
226 +    id that corresponds to the DefaultCharSetName.
227 +
