3 > 1. IBCustomDataset: avoid problem with additions to TFieldType by using a subset instead.
4 >
5 > 2. TIBDynamicGrid: change DrawCellText declaration to comply with laz 2.3.0
6 >
7 > IBX Change Log  version (2.5-0 Build 13868) Fri, 29 Jul 2022 09:52:01 +0100
8 >
9 > 1. TIBTransaction: new properties
10 >    property TransactionID: integer read GetTransactionID;
11 >    property IsReadOnly: boolean read GetIsReadOnly;
12 >    {published}
13 >    property TransactionName: string read FTransactionName write SetTransactionName;
14 >
15 > 2. IBCustomDataset: per row blob and array buffer cached clear before processing
16 >   Insert or Update...Returning. This allows blobs and arrays to be returned
17 >   by the statement.
18 >
19 > 3. TSQLXMLReader moved from IBXScript to package fbintf unit IBUtils.
20 >
21 > 4. TransactionName initialised to a newly generated GUID if empty.
22 >
23 > 5. New unit: IBJournal. This provides the TIBJournal component which is a wrapper
24 >   for the fbintf package's journaling capability. TIBJournal is used to set the
25 >   file path and filename for the journal file and to Enabled (start journaling) and
26 >   disable (stop journaling). See fbintf/doc/README.ClientSideJournaling.pdf for
27 >   more information, and comments in IBJournal.pas.
28 >
29 > 6. TIBDatabase.InternalTransaction is now a read only transaction.
30 >
31 > 7. Bug fix: blob id no longer set to null on update when blob has not been
32 >   retrieved.
33 >
34 > 8. Row auto refreshed on update/insert if blob or array field updated and field
35 >   not in a returning clause.
36 >
37 > 9. ColumnCount moved from record buffer header to a single per dataset count. Reduces
38 >   buffer overhead and avoids problem when refresh query has a different column
39 >   count to select query i.e. incorrectly changing number of columns.
40 >
41 > 10. IBExtract: support added for UDR Functions, Procedure and Trigger declarations.
42 >
43 > 11. TIBDatabaseInfo. New property FirebirdVersion. This returns the current Firebird version
44 >    string. Note that the Version property returns an InterBase compatible version string.
45 >
46 > 12. IBExtract: ensure sql identifiers returned as a LIST are always quoted.
47 >
48 > IBX Change Log  version (2.5-0 Build 12933) Mon, 29 Nov 2021 14:59:54 +0000
49 >
50 > 1. IBCustomDataset: Modify TISQL component now defaults to GoToFirstRecordOnExecute := true.
51 >   This is for compatibility with Firebird 5 where Update...Returning can return
52 >   a cursor.
53 >
54 > IBX Change Log  version (2.4-3 Build 12886) Sat, 23 Oct 2021 14:58:30 +0100
55 >
56 > 1. Add try-..except check when initially loading library in IDE. This should
57 > ensure that IDE continues to load even when a failure occurs in IBX load
58 > library.
59 >
60 > 2. IBXScript: now recognises a CASE...END block within a stored procedure and
61 >   hence will correctly detect end of the outer containing block when the block
62 >   contains a SELECT ... CASE ... END construct.
63 >
64 > 3. IBExtract: some further tidying up to remove extraneous white space.
65 >
66 > 4. IBCustomDataSet: DefaultFieldClasses array declaration updated to avoid compile time
67 >   errors when extra elements are added to DB.TFieldType.
68 >
69 > 5. IBUpdate: updated to reflect changes to ISQLParam.
70 >
71 > 6. IBXScript: now correctly parses a DECLARE statement which includes a quoted string.
72 >
73 > 7. IBExtract: for ODS >=13, increment generator value by one for ALTER SEQUENCE statement.
74 >
75 > 8. IBSQL: Support for scrollable cursors added (note: local databases only)
76 >
77 > IBX Change Log  version (2.4-2 Build 12773) Mon, 23 Aug 2021 11:59:42 +0100
78 >
79 > 1. TIBDatabaseInfo: review and tidy-up of property types. Most widen to int64 with the
80 >   exception of those defined to be one byte wide e.g. DBImplementationNo.
81 >
82 > 2. TIBSQL: Batch Update/Insert support added.
83 >
84 > 3. TIBStoredProc: when generating the SQL, the value of the StoredProcName property
85 >   is no longer automatically converted to upper case when it is syntactically a
86 >   SQL Identifier. This is to support the use of stored procedures defined e.g.
87 >   as CREATE PROCEDURE "iCASE".
88 >
89 >   There could be a backwards compatibility issue when the StoredProcName was entered
90 >   manually at design time. That is not selected from the drop down list. If the
91 >   StoredProcName is entered in mixed case and the procedure was declared e.g. as
92 >   CREATE PROCEDURE iCASE, then the SQL generation will be incorrect. You should
93 >   ensure that the value of the StoredProcName is all upper case, unless it was
94 >   declared under dialect 3 and explicitly as mixed case (i.e. delimited by double
95 >   quotes).
96 >
97 >   Note that when a stored procedure name was declared delimited in double quotes,
98 >   as in the first example above, the value of the StoredProcName property must not
99 >   include the delimiters (double quotes).
100 >
101 > 4. IBXUpgradeConfFile: an exception is now raised if a patch file specified in
102 >   upgrade.conf was not found. This replaces silently ignoring the problem.
103 >
104 > 5. TIBLocalDBSupport: new property "SectionHeaderTemplate". This defaults to
105 >   'Version.%.3d' and is used to generate the section header names (for a given
106 >   version no.) in the upgrade.conf file.
107 >

109 >
110 > 1. -c command line option added to fbsql example program. Used to set connection
111 >   character set.

113 > IBX Change Log  version (2.4-0 Build 12543) Mon, 22 Feb 2021 11:00:08 +0000
114 >
115 > 1. Firebird 4 support added.
116 >
117 > 2. New FB4 data types TIME WITH TIME ZONE, TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE, DECFLOAT and
118 >   extended precision NUMERIC fields are supported.
119 >
120 > 3. TFmtBCDField is used to support access to DECFLOAT and extended precision NUMERIC fields.
121 >
122 > 4. TIBDateTimeField and TIBTimeField are introduced in support of TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE
123 >   and TIME WITH TIME ZONE fields. These inherit from TDateTimeField.
124 >
125 > 5. IBExtract now supports FB4 enhancements:
126 >   - new data types as above
127 >   - Identity column extensions
128 >   - Default user role
129 >   - SQL Security clause for Database, Tables, Procedures, Functions and Triggers
130 >   - Internal Functions
131 >
132 > 6. IBExtract: new event: OnExtractLines.
133 >
134 > 7. IBExtract: revert create trigger to legacy syntax see Firebird CORE-6243, CORE-5545 and DOC-145
135 >
136 > 8. IBXServices: Server version no. parsing now allows any letter before major version number
137 >   and is no longer restricted to 'V' e.g. "LI-T4.0.0.1436 Firebird 4.0 Beta 1"
138 >
139 > 9. TIBDataSet and TIBQuery: new property TZTextOption. Used to determine the default
140 >   format for rendering a time zone.
141 >
142 > 10. TIBDataSet and TIBQuery: new property DefaultTZDate. Used to provide the default date
143 >     to convert TIME WITH TIME ZONE data type values to and from GMT.
144 >
145 > 11. Unit name IBTypes changed to IBInternals. Internal interfaces TIBGUIInterface and TIBTimerInf renamed to
146 >    IIBGUIInterface and IIBTimerInf respectively.
147 >
148 > 12. Constants: DPBPrefix and TPBPrefix moved to IB unit. DPBConstantNames and TPBConstantNames
149 >    now accessible as properties of TIBDatabase and TIBTransaction respectively.
150 >
151 > 13. String Fields: when a fixed character with (CHAR) field is returned, it is now
152 >    truncated to its fixed character width rather than being right padded with
153 >    white space to the maximum data size.
154 >
155 > 14. TIBTable.Empty table. In additional to deleting all records in the underlying
156 >    table, the internal buffers are now also flushed ensuring that the TIBTable is
157 >    also empty.
158 >
159 > 15. TBatchSQLStatementReader: Line buffer is now cleared on call to reset.
160 >
161 > 16. TIBXControlService descendents: DatabaseName may now be set using a database
162 >    connect string. The database name is extracted from the connect string.
163 >
164 > 17. DBControlGrid: Minor bug fixes. avoid AV on form closure, avoid black panel
165 >
166 > 18. TIBExtract: Data type of COMPUTED By columns is no longer included in SQL.
167 >
168 > 19. Local database on Linux and with legacy API and FB 2.5 embedded server: fixed problem with password
169 >    not being present as required.
170 >
171 > 20. IBTreeView split into DBTreeView and IBTreeView. This former is an IBX indepedent
172 >    version that can be customised to work with other database drivers.
173 >
174 > 21. ISQLMonitor: use platform specific LineEnding to delimit messages. Avoids
175 >    unnecessary CR at end of line on Unix platforms.
176 >
177 > 22. ISQLMonitor: Unix: Default semaphore timeout increased from 1 second to 10
178 >    seconds in order to reduce risk of message loss.
179 >
180 > 23. ISQLMonitor: read and write count statistics now available via:
181 >      property TIBSQLMonitor.ReadCount;
182 >      IIBSQLMonitorHook.GetWriteCount: integer;
183 >
184 > 24. ISQLMonitor tidy up and unit split. IPC functions moved to new unit IBIPC.

187  
188   1.  TIBStringField: when a string value is read from a dataset buffer, if the
189      number of UTF8 characters exceeds the string size then string is truncated
# Line 10 | Line 195 | IBX Change Log  version (2.3-5 Build 123
195      SQLFilterParams property is assumed to be a SQL condition clause and
196      ANDed into the Where clause of the SQL Select statement provided as a
197      dataset property. Each such SQL condition thus acts as an additional filter
198 <    on the dataset. (Not yet tested)
198 >    on the dataset.
199  
200   3.  The Filtered property inherited from TDataset is no longer used for SQL (server
201      side filters).
# Line 35 | Line 220 | IBX Change Log  version (2.3-5 Build 123
220     value returned by DataSize is now the same as the Dataset buffer size reserved
221     for the field.
222  
223 < 10. IBExtact: Tidyup of SQL generation. Avoid unnecessary double quotes.
223 > 10. IBExtract: Tidyup of SQL generation. Avoid unnecessary double quotes.
224  
225   11. TIBCustomDataset: Add checks on buffer sizes when copying data from row to field buffer
226      and vice-versa. This may result in an exception being raised (correctly) for
# Line 44 | Line 229 | IBX Change Log  version (2.3-5 Build 123
229      In such cases, the field needs to be deleted in the IDE fields editor and then
230      added back in.
231  
232 + 12. IBCustomDataSet: CanInsert, CanEdit, CanDelete and CanRefresh updated to return
233 +    false if query contains only white space and not just empty.
234 +
235   12. IBCustomDataset: Blob data is now cleared when TDataSet.Cancel is called. This
236      should ensure that (e.g.) a TDBMemo is correctly refreshed after a dataset edit
237      is cancelled.
238  
239 + 13. IBCustomDataset: SetArrayIntf should no longer cause an access violation if
240 +    called on a null field.
241 +
242 + 14. IBCustomDataSet: An access violation should no longer occur when calling CancelUpdates
243 +    results in an empty dataTC86                Client side Filtered Dataset    1       X
244 + set.
245 +
246 + 15. IBCustomDataSet: OnUpdateError should now be called in all circumstances when
247 +    a cached update is applied and an exception is raised.
248 +
249 + 16. IBCustomDataSet: Avoid access violation when SetBookmarkData called with nil pointer.
250 +
251 + 17. Console Mode Local Database support: backup/restore should now work correctly.
252 +
253 + 18. Local Database Support: if an upgrade fails, a downgrade is now performed if
254 +    possible and an exception raised.
255 +
256 + 19. MinimumVersionNo added to Local Database Support. Database will not open if
257 +    below this version no. and upgrade not possible.
