8 >
9 > 1. Add try-..except check when initially loading library in IDE. This should
10 > ensure that IDE continues to load even when a failure occurs in IBX load
11 > library.
12 >
13 > 2. IBXScript: now recognises a CASE...END block within a stored procedure and
14 >   hence will correctly detect end of the outer containing block when the block
15 >   contains a SELECT ... CASE ... END construct.
16 >
17 > 3. IBExtract: some further tidying up to remove extraneous white space.
18 >
19 > 4. IBCustomDataSet: DefaultFieldClasses array declaration updated to avoid compile time
20 >   errors when extra elements are added to DB.TFieldType.
21 >
22 > 5. IBUpdate: updated to reflect changes to ISQLParam.
23 >
24 > 6. IBXScript: now correctly parses a DECLARE statement which includes a quoted string.
25 >
26 > 7. IBExtract: for ODS >=13, increment generator value by one for ALTER SEQUENCE statement.
27 >
28 > 8. IBSQL: Support for scrollable cursors added (note: local databases only)
29 >
30 > IBX Change Log  version (2.4-2 Build 12773) Mon, 23 Aug 2021 11:59:42 +0100
31 >
32 > 1. TIBDatabaseInfo: review and tidy-up of property types. Most widen to int64 with the
33 >   exception of those defined to be one byte wide e.g. DBImplementationNo.
34 >
35 > 2. TIBSQL: Batch Update/Insert support added.
36 >
37 > 3. TIBStoredProc: when generating the SQL, the value of the StoredProcName property
38 >   is no longer automatically converted to upper case when it is syntactically a
39 >   SQL Identifier. This is to support the use of stored procedures defined e.g.
40 >   as CREATE PROCEDURE "iCASE".
41 >
42 >   There could be a backwards compatibility issue when the StoredProcName was entered
43 >   manually at design time. That is not selected from the drop down list. If the
44 >   StoredProcName is entered in mixed case and the procedure was declared e.g. as
45 >   CREATE PROCEDURE iCASE, then the SQL generation will be incorrect. You should
46 >   ensure that the value of the StoredProcName is all upper case, unless it was
47 >   declared under dialect 3 and explicitly as mixed case (i.e. delimited by double
48 >   quotes).
49 >
50 >   Note that when a stored procedure name was declared delimited in double quotes,
51 >   as in the first example above, the value of the StoredProcName property must not
52 >   include the delimiters (double quotes).
53 >
54 > 4. IBXUpgradeConfFile: an exception is now raised if a patch file specified in
55 >   upgrade.conf was not found. This replaces silently ignoring the problem.
56 >
57 > 5. TIBLocalDBSupport: new property "SectionHeaderTemplate". This defaults to
58 >   'Version.%.3d' and is used to generate the section header names (for a given
59 >   version no.) in the upgrade.conf file.
60 >
61 > IBX Change Log  version (2.4-1 Build 12550) Wed, 23 Jun 2021 13:59:14 +0100
62 >
63 > 1. -c command line option added to fbsql example program. Used to set connection
64 >   character set.

66 > IBX Change Log  version (2.4-0 Build 12543) Mon, 22 Feb 2021 11:00:08 +0000
67 >
68 > 1. Firebird 4 support added.
69 >
70 > 2. New FB4 data types TIME WITH TIME ZONE, TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE, DECFLOAT and
71 >   extended precision NUMERIC fields are supported.
72 >
73 > 3. TFmtBCDField is used to support access to DECFLOAT and extended precision NUMERIC fields.
74 >
75 > 4. TIBDateTimeField and TIBTimeField are introduced in support of TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE
76 >   and TIME WITH TIME ZONE fields. These inherit from TDateTimeField.
77 >
78 > 5. IBExtract now supports FB4 enhancements:
79 >   - new data types as above
80 >   - Identity column extensions
81 >   - Default user role
82 >   - SQL Security clause for Database, Tables, Procedures, Functions and Triggers
83 >   - Internal Functions
84 >
85 > 6. IBExtract: new event: OnExtractLines.
86 >
87 > 7. IBExtract: revert create trigger to legacy syntax see Firebird CORE-6243, CORE-5545 and DOC-145
88 >
89 > 8. IBXServices: Server version no. parsing now allows any letter before major version number
90 >   and is no longer restricted to 'V' e.g. "LI-T4.0.0.1436 Firebird 4.0 Beta 1"
91 >
92 > 9. TIBDataSet and TIBQuery: new property TZTextOption. Used to determine the default
93 >   format for rendering a time zone.
94 >
95 > 10. TIBDataSet and TIBQuery: new property DefaultTZDate. Used to provide the default date
96 >     to convert TIME WITH TIME ZONE data type values to and from GMT.
97 >
98 > 11. Unit name IBTypes changed to IBInternals. Internal interfaces TIBGUIInterface and TIBTimerInf renamed to
99 >    IIBGUIInterface and IIBTimerInf respectively.
100 >
101 > 12. Constants: DPBPrefix and TPBPrefix moved to IB unit. DPBConstantNames and TPBConstantNames
102 >    now accessible as properties of TIBDatabase and TIBTransaction respectively.
103 >
104 > 13. String Fields: when a fixed character with (CHAR) field is returned, it is now
105 >    truncated to its fixed character width rather than being right padded with
106 >    white space to the maximum data size.
107 >
108 > 14. TIBTable.Empty table. In additional to deleting all records in the underlying
109 >    table, the internal buffers are now also flushed ensuring that the TIBTable is
110 >    also empty.
111 >
112 > 15. TBatchSQLStatementReader: Line buffer is now cleared on call to reset.
113 >
114 > 16. TIBXControlService descendents: DatabaseName may now be set using a database
115 >    connect string. The database name is extracted from the connect string.
116 >
117 > 17. DBControlGrid: Minor bug fixes. avoid AV on form closure, avoid black panel
118 >
119 > 18. TIBExtract: Data type of COMPUTED By columns is no longer included in SQL.
120 >
121 > 19. Local database on Linux and with legacy API and FB 2.5 embedded server: fixed problem with password
122 >    not being present as required.
123 >
124 > 20. IBTreeView split into DBTreeView and IBTreeView. This former is an IBX indepedent
125 >    version that can be customised to work with other database drivers.
126 >
127 > 21. ISQLMonitor: use platform specific LineEnding to delimit messages. Avoids
128 >    unnecessary CR at end of line on Unix platforms.
129 >
130 > 22. ISQLMonitor: Unix: Default semaphore timeout increased from 1 second to 10
131 >    seconds in order to reduce risk of message loss.
132 >
133 > 23. ISQLMonitor: read and write count statistics now available via:
134 >      property TIBSQLMonitor.ReadCount;
135 >      IIBSQLMonitorHook.GetWriteCount: integer;
136 >
137 > 24. ISQLMonitor tidy up and unit split. IPC functions moved to new unit IBIPC.

141   1.  TIBStringField: when a string value is read from a dataset buffer, if the
142      number of UTF8 characters exceeds the string size then string is truncated
# Line 10 | Line 148 | IBX Change Log  version (2.3-5 Build 122
148      SQLFilterParams property is assumed to be a SQL condition clause and
149      ANDed into the Where clause of the SQL Select statement provided as a
150      dataset property. Each such SQL condition thus acts as an additional filter
151 <    on the dataset. (Not yet tested)
151 >    on the dataset.
152  
153   3.  The Filtered property inherited from TDataset is no longer used for SQL (server
154      side filters).
155  
156 + 4. IBLookupComboEditBox: Selection should no longer reset to start of text when
157 +   text matches complete entry.
158 +
159 + 5. TIBDataLink: Detail Dataset params not refreshed unless both master and detail
160 +   dataset are active (avoids risk of access violation if master is inactive)
161 +
162 + 6. TIBEvents: Registered property can now be set at design time even if database not open
163 +
164 + 7. TIBEvents: component now correctly re-initialised after call to UnregisterEvents.
165 +   This should prevent "spillover" of events between sessions.
166 +
167 + 8. TIBCustomDataset: GetNextRecord now called when reseting to first record of a unidirectional dataset.
168 +   This should ensure that the internal buffer is set up correctly and avoids
169 +   a duplicate initial row.
170 +
171 + 9. TIBStringField: DataSize now given as byte size of string less trailing any zero character.
172 +   That is, the DataSize should be the field size * character set width. The
173 +   value returned by DataSize is now the same as the Dataset buffer size reserved
174 +   for the field.
175 +
176 + 10. IBExtract: Tidyup of SQL generation. Avoid unnecessary double quotes.
177 +
178 + 11. TIBCustomDataset: Add checks on buffer sizes when copying data from row to field buffer
179 +    and vice-versa. This may result in an exception being raised (correctly) for
180 +    older programs when using dataset fields added to a form and the database has been
181 +    upgraded. For example, computed fields can change from 32-bit to 64-bit integers.
182 +    In such cases, the field needs to be deleted in the IDE fields editor and then
183 +    added back in.
184 +
185 + 12. IBCustomDataSet: CanInsert, CanEdit, CanDelete and CanRefresh updated to return
186 +    false if query contains only white space and not just empty.
187 +
188 + 12. IBCustomDataset: Blob data is now cleared when TDataSet.Cancel is called. This
189 +    should ensure that (e.g.) a TDBMemo is correctly refreshed after a dataset edit
190 +    is cancelled.
191 +
192 + 13. IBCustomDataset: SetArrayIntf should no longer cause an access violation if
193 +    called on a null field.
194 +
195 + 14. IBCustomDataSet: An access violation should no longer occur when calling CancelUpdates
196 +    results in an empty dataTC86                Client side Filtered Dataset    1       X
197 + set.
198 +
199 + 15. IBCustomDataSet: OnUpdateError should now be called in all circumstances when
200 +    a cached update is applied and an exception is raised.
201 +
202 + 16. IBCustomDataSet: Avoid access violation when SetBookmarkData called with nil pointer.
203 +
204 + 17. Console Mode Local Database support: backup/restore should now work correctly.
205 +
206 + 18. Local Database Support: if an upgrade fails, a downgrade is now performed if
207 +    possible and an exception raised.
208 +
209 + 19. MinimumVersionNo added to Local Database Support. Database will not open if
210 +    below this version no. and upgrade not possible.
211 +
