1. IBExtract: Identity columns - add additional check for null column for generator name. |
4 |
> |
|
5 |
> |
2. IBCustomDataSet: Insert and Modify (Update) queries now recognise and process SQL RETURNING clauses. |
6 |
> |
The main use for this is for Firebird 3 Identity columns (see IBXDocumentation 6.6.8 for further |
7 |
> |
information). However, this is also a very useful mechanism for returning updated computed by |
8 |
> |
column values. Values returned as a result of executing an Insert or Update statement |
9 |
> |
replace existing values in the current row for each corresponding column. |
10 |
> |
|
11 |
> |
Previously, if a dataset's select query included read only (computed by) fields then |
12 |
> |
an automatic row refresh was performed after an insert or update query had been processed, |
13 |
> |
irrespective of the setting of the "ForcedUpdates" property. This has changed such |
14 |
> |
that an automatic refresh is no longer performed if an insert or update query contains |
15 |
> |
a returning clause that updates one or more fields on the current row. A full row |
16 |
> |
refresh is only performed if (a) ForcedRefresh is true or (b) the query does not return any |
17 |
> |
field values and the select query contains read only fields. Use of Insert/update |
18 |
> |
returning should be significantly more efficient than excuting a refresh query. |
19 |
> |
|
20 |
> |
This behaviour change is intended to be backwards compatible and there should be no need to change |
21 |
> |
existing programs, other than to improve performance by using the new capability. |
22 |
> |
|
23 |
> |
3. TIBTable: generated Insert and Update SQL now include a RETURNING clause for |
24 |
> |
any Computed By or Identity Columns. The IBTables example has been updated to |
25 |
> |
illustrate the computation of the employee Full Name on update. |
26 |
> |
|
27 |
> |
4. TIBTable: The GeneratorField property is now published. |
28 |
> |
|
29 |
> |
5. The InsertSQL property editor now shows Firebird 3 Identity columns separate from the Field List. |
30 |
> |
When InsertSQL is generated, the Identity columns are not included in the list of values to |
31 |
> |
be inserted. A RETURNING clause is added to the insert statement to return the value of |
32 |
> |
each Identity column after the insert is executed. |
33 |
> |
|
34 |
> |
6. The Modify Property Editor now generates Update SQL with Computed By fields in Update..Returning clause. |
35 |
> |
Similarly Insert Property Editor now generates Insert SQL with Computed By fields in |
36 |
> |
Insert..Returning clause. |
37 |
> |
|
38 |
> |
7. TIBGenerator: small performance improvement by not preparing query each time |
39 |
> |
a new value is generated. |
40 |
> |
|
41 |
> |
8. TIBSQL: Free resources when transaction changed - ensures new transaction is used. |
42 |
> |
|
43 |
> |
9. Property editors will now sync table name to a System Table when "Include System |
44 |
> |
Tables" is selected and the query is for a System Table. |
45 |
> |
|
46 |
> |
10. Minor Performance improvement to handling of Date/Time types in IBX datasets. Field |
47 |
> |
values are no longer converted to milliseconds from TDateTime and then back again |
48 |
> |
to TDateTime (the conversion to milliseconds is the default TDataset approach). |
49 |
> |
|
50 |
> |
11. Property Editors handling of Stored Procedures. |
51 |
> |
* Select and Refresh: only show a list of stored procedures that return multiple rows (proc type 1) and |
52 |
> |
which have a non-empty list of output parameters (i.e. stored procedures that may be used in a select |
53 |
> |
query). |
54 |
> |
* Modify and Insert: only show a list of stored procedures that return at most a singleton row (proc type 2). |
55 |
> |
|
56 |
> |
12. IBStoredProc: Now supports Firebird 3 Package Names. A new published property PackageName |
57 |
> |
can be used to select a package. If non-empty, the stored procedure name is |
58 |
> |
expected to be a stored procedure defined in the specified package and the |
59 |
> |
generated SQL will be as required for a stored procedure located in a package. |
60 |
> |
|
61 |
> |
13. Select, Refresh, Insert, Modify, Delete and TIBSQL SQL Property Editors now include |
62 |
> |
a "Package Name" drop down box to allow selection of a Firebird 3 Package from |
63 |
> |
which a stored procedure can be selected. With no package name selected, non-package |
64 |
> |
stored procedures are listed. |
65 |

|
1. IBCustomDataset: Minor change of PChar to PByte for compatibility with fbintf |
70 |
|
changes. |
77 |
|
|
78 |
|
4. Avoid "Object is nil" error when opening a database with DefaultSystemCodePage = true |
79 |
|
|
80 |
+ |
5. IBLookupComboEditBox: avoid race condition when autocompleting text that occasionally |
81 |
+ |
results in autocomplete ignoring prefix text. |
82 |
+ |
|
83 |
+ |
6. IBLookupComboEditBox: Ensure that cursor is not reset to start of text when |
84 |
+ |
entering a new name into the text box. |
85 |
+ |
|
86 |
+ |
7. IBCustomDataset: ensure that TIBStringField uses the field size reported by |
87 |
+ |
Firebird rather than recomputing it. |
88 |
+ |
|
89 |
+ |
8. Property Editor positioning tidy up: All IBX Property editors should now be |
90 |
+ |
screen centre. Previously some were "poDesigned" which may be inappropriate |
91 |
+ |
for multi monitor desktops. |
92 |
+ |
|
93 |
+ |
10. TIBTreeView.FindNode: protect against error if zero length path or empty tree node. |
94 |
+ |
|
95 |
+ |
11. TIBTransaction: On Force Disconnect do not raise an exception when problem ending |
96 |
+ |
a transaction and always reset the object. |
97 |
+ |
|
98 |
+ |
12. TIBQuery tidyup: remove unnecessary call to GetAffectedRows. |
99 |
+ |
|
100 |
+ |
13. TIBXScript: Allow for override of database filename in Create Database statements. |
101 |
+ |
|
102 |
+ |
14. IBLocaldb: Support initialisation of the database from an SQL script in addition |
103 |
+ |
to a gbak format archive. |
104 |
+ |
|
105 |
+ |
15. IBLocaldb: fix problem that stopped the OnSharedDataDir event from being recognised. |
106 |
+ |
|
107 |
+ |
16. IBLocaldb: Drop database if error creating an empty database. |
108 |
+ |
|
109 |
+ |
17. TIBTreeView: improve performance when selecting node - avoid refreshing dataset |
110 |
+ |
unless selected node not in current dataset. |
111 |
+ |
|
112 |
+ |
18. IBServices: SetDBParams method moved from TCustomIBLocalDBSupport (in IBLocalDB package) |
113 |
+ |
to TIBCustomService, and IBlocalDB code tidy up. |
114 |
+ |
|
115 |
+ |
19. IBTreeView: Initialise TIBTreeNode KeyValue to null to avoid unpredictable |
116 |
+ |
behaviour due to uninitialised variable. |
117 |
+ |
|
118 |
+ |
20. IBServices: Correct encoding of isc_spb_prp_write_mode in TIBConfigService from |
119 |
+ |
integer to byte. Ditto isc_spb_prp_reserve_space and isc_spb_prp_access_mode. |
120 |
+ |
|
121 |
+ |
21. IBSQL: When Database changed ensure that all resources are freed. |
122 |
+ |
|
123 |
+ |
22. IBCustomDataset: When database changed ensure that queries an unprepared. |
124 |
+ |
|
125 |
+ |
23. SQL Property Editors now use SynEdit with SQL Highlighter. New features include: |
126 |
+ |
* Line Wrap on SQL Token boundaries (on user command) |
127 |
+ |
* auto-complete table names in drop down list of table names |
128 |
+ |
* Double click on tablename or field name adds to SQL text |
129 |
+ |
|
130 |
+ |
24. IBDataOutput: print statistics using float (%f) format instead of decimal (%d). |
131 |
+ |
|
132 |
+ |
25. IBTreeView: Call to FindNode: param type change from "array of Variant" to |
133 |
+ |
TVariantArray. Seems to avoid memory corruption in Windows (probably a |
134 |
+ |
workaround for a problem in fpc 3.0.4 win64). |
135 |
+ |
|
136 |
+ |
26. IBDatabaseInfo: Code tidy up. Add check for database not assigned or not open. |
137 |
+ |
|
138 |
+ |
27. IBDatabaseInfo: Remove memory leak when accessing database operation counts. |
139 |
+ |
|

IBX Change Log version (2.0-2) Fri, 24 Feb 2017 12:17:53 +0000 |
141 |
|
|
142 |
|
1. TIBDatabase.CreateDatabase: extract full DB Name from SQL using reg ex in order to |
157 |
|
that BindFields is called when the query is next activated. Avoids FieldName |
158 |
|
not found error. |
159 |
|
|
160 |
+ |
7. IBUpdate: This is a new IBX component similar to TIBUpdateSQL. It is more general |
161 |
+ |
purpose and allows the programmer to define any action they want for Update, Insert |
162 |
+ |
or Delete. This may be complex SQL (similar to a Trigger), application specific |
163 |
+ |
filtering of updates, or use of statements such as Grant or Revoke instead of |
164 |
+ |
normal DML. See User Manual for more information. |
165 |

1. TIBEvents: Fix uninitialised variable that could result in lost events. |
