+IBX Change Log  version (2.4-0 Build 12543) Mon, 22 Feb 2021 11:00:08 +0000
->
->
+. Firebird 4 support added.
->
->
+. New FB4 data types TIME WITH TIME ZONE, TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE, DECFLOAT and
->
+   extended precision NUMERIC fields are supported.
->
->
+. TFmtBCDField is used to support access to DECFLOAT and extended precision NUMERIC fields.
->
->
+. TIBDateTimeField and TIBTimeField are introduced in support of TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE
->
+   and TIME WITH TIME ZONE fields. These inherit from TDateTimeField.
->
->
+. IBExtract now supports FB4 enhancements:
->
+   - new data types as above
->
+   - Identity column extensions
->
+   - Default user role
->
+   - SQL Security clause for Database, Tables, Procedures, Functions and Triggers
->
+   - Internal Functions
->
->
+. IBExtract: new event: OnExtractLines.
->
->
+. IBExtract: revert create trigger to legacy syntax see Firebird CORE-6243, CORE-5545 and DOC-145
->
->
+. IBXServices: Server version no. parsing now allows any letter before major version number
->
+   and is no longer restricted to 'V' e.g. "LI-T4.0.0.1436 Firebird 4.0 Beta 1"
->
->
+. TIBDataSet and TIBQuery: new property TZTextOption. Used to determine the default
->
+   format for rendering a time zone.
->
->
+. TIBDataSet and TIBQuery: new property DefaultTZDate. Used to provide the default date
->
+     to convert TIME WITH TIME ZONE data type values to and from GMT.
->
->
+. Unit name IBTypes changed to IBInternals. Internal interfaces TIBGUIInterface and TIBTimerInf renamed to
->
+    IIBGUIInterface and IIBTimerInf respectively.
->
->
+. Constants: DPBPrefix and TPBPrefix moved to IB unit. DPBConstantNames and TPBConstantNames
->
+    now accessible as properties of TIBDatabase and TIBTransaction respectively.
->
->
+. String Fields: when a fixed character with (CHAR) field is returned, it is now
->
+    truncated to its fixed character width rather than being right padded with
->
+    white space to the maximum data size.
->
->
+. TIBTable.Empty table. In additional to deleting all records in the underlying
->
+    table, the internal buffers are now also flushed ensuring that the TIBTable is
->
+    also empty.
->
->
+. TBatchSQLStatementReader: Line buffer is now cleared on call to reset.
->
->
+. TIBXControlService descendents: DatabaseName may now be set using a database
->
+    connect string. The database name is extracted from the connect string.
->
->
+. DBControlGrid: Minor bug fixes. avoid AV on form closure, avoid black panel
->
->
+. TIBExtract: Data type of COMPUTED By columns is no longer included in SQL.
->
->
+. Local database on Linux and with legacy API and FB 2.5 embedded server: fixed problem with password
->
+    not being present as required.
->
->
+. IBTreeView split into DBTreeView and IBTreeView. This former is an IBX indepedent
->
+    version that can be customised to work with other database drivers.
->
->
+. ISQLMonitor: use platform specific LineEnding to delimit messages. Avoids
->
+    unnecessary CR at end of line on Unix platforms.
->
->
+. ISQLMonitor: Unix: Default semaphore timeout increased from 1 second to 10
->
+    seconds in order to reduce risk of message loss.
->
->
+. ISQLMonitor: read and write count statistics now available via:
->
+      property TIBSQLMonitor.ReadCount;
->
+      IIBSQLMonitorHook.GetWriteCount: integer;
->
->
+. ISQLMonitor tidy up and unit split. IPC functions moved to new unit IBIPC.

+IBX Change Log  version (2.3-5 Build 12350) Tue, 25 Aug 2020 16:11:02 +0100
+.  TIBStringField: when a string value is read from a dataset buffer, if the
+    number of UTF8 characters exceeds the string size then string is truncated
+    SQLFilterParams property is assumed to be a SQL condition clause and
+    ANDed into the Where clause of the SQL Select statement provided as a
+    dataset property. Each such SQL condition thus acts as an additional filter
-<
+    on the dataset. (Not yet tested)
->
+    on the dataset.
+.  The Filtered property inherited from TDataset is no longer used for SQL (server
+    side filters).
-+
+. IBLookupComboEditBox: Selection should no longer reset to start of text when
-+
+   text matches complete entry.
-+
-+
+. TIBDataLink: Detail Dataset params not refreshed unless both master and detail
-+
+   dataset are active (avoids risk of access violation if master is inactive)
-+
-+
+. TIBEvents: Registered property can now be set at design time even if database not open
-+
-+
+. TIBEvents: component now correctly re-initialised after call to UnregisterEvents.
-+
+   This should prevent "spillover" of events between sessions.
-+
-+
+. TIBCustomDataset: GetNextRecord now called when reseting to first record of a unidirectional dataset.
-+
+   This should ensure that the internal buffer is set up correctly and avoids
-+
+   a duplicate initial row.
-+
-+
+. TIBStringField: DataSize now given as byte size of string less trailing any zero character.
-+
+   That is, the DataSize should be the field size * character set width. The
-+
+   value returned by DataSize is now the same as the Dataset buffer size reserved
-+
+   for the field.
-+
-+
+. IBExtract: Tidyup of SQL generation. Avoid unnecessary double quotes.
-+
-+
+. TIBCustomDataset: Add checks on buffer sizes when copying data from row to field buffer
-+
+    and vice-versa. This may result in an exception being raised (correctly) for
-+
+    older programs when using dataset fields added to a form and the database has been
-+
+    upgraded. For example, computed fields can change from 32-bit to 64-bit integers.
-+
+    In such cases, the field needs to be deleted in the IDE fields editor and then
-+
+    added back in.
-+
-+
+. IBCustomDataSet: CanInsert, CanEdit, CanDelete and CanRefresh updated to return
-+
+    false if query contains only white space and not just empty.
-+
-+
+. IBCustomDataset: Blob data is now cleared when TDataSet.Cancel is called. This
-+
+    should ensure that (e.g.) a TDBMemo is correctly refreshed after a dataset edit
-+
+    is cancelled.
-+
-+
+. IBCustomDataset: SetArrayIntf should no longer cause an access violation if
-+
+    called on a null field.
-+
-+
+. IBCustomDataSet: An access violation should no longer occur when calling CancelUpdates
-+
+    results in an empty dataTC86                Client side Filtered Dataset    1       X
-+
+set.
-+
-+
+. IBCustomDataSet: OnUpdateError should now be called in all circumstances when
-+
+    a cached update is applied and an exception is raised.
-+
-+
+. IBCustomDataSet: Avoid access violation when SetBookmarkData called with nil pointer.
-+
-+
+. Console Mode Local Database support: backup/restore should now work correctly.
-+
-+
+. Local Database Support: if an upgrade fails, a downgrade is now performed if
-+
+    possible and an exception raised.
-+
-+
+. MinimumVersionNo added to Local Database Support. Database will not open if
-+
+    below this version no. and upgrade not possible.
