1 + IBX Change Log  version (2.5-1 Build nnn) Tue, 6 Dec 2022 23:13:00 +0000
2 +
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 + 3. TIBArrayGrid: change DrawCellText declaration to comply with laz 2.3.0
8 +
9 + IBX Change Log  version (2.5-0 Build 13868) Fri, 29 Jul 2022 09:52:01 +0100
10 +
11 + 1. TIBTransaction: new properties
12 +    property TransactionID: integer read GetTransactionID;
13 +    property IsReadOnly: boolean read GetIsReadOnly;
14 +    {published}
15 +    property TransactionName: string read FTransactionName write SetTransactionName;
16 +
17 + 2. IBCustomDataset: per row blob and array buffer cached clear before processing
18 +   Insert or Update...Returning. This allows blobs and arrays to be returned
19 +   by the statement.
20 +
21 + 3. TSQLXMLReader moved from IBXScript to package fbintf unit IBUtils.
22 +
23 + 4. TransactionName initialised to a newly generated GUID if empty.
24 +
25 + 5. New unit: IBJournal. This provides the TIBJournal component which is a wrapper
26 +   for the fbintf package's journaling capability. TIBJournal is used to set the
27 +   file path and filename for the journal file and to Enabled (start journaling) and
28 +   disable (stop journaling). See fbintf/doc/README.ClientSideJournaling.pdf for
29 +   more information, and comments in IBJournal.pas.
30 +
31 + 6. TIBDatabase.InternalTransaction is now a read only transaction.
32 +
33 + 7. Bug fix: blob id no longer set to null on update when blob has not been
34 +   retrieved.
35 +
36 + 8. Row auto refreshed on update/insert if blob or array field updated and field
37 +   not in a returning clause.
38 +
39 + 9. ColumnCount moved from record buffer header to a single per dataset count. Reduces
40 +   buffer overhead and avoids problem when refresh query has a different column
41 +   count to select query i.e. incorrectly changing number of columns.
42 +
43 + 10. IBExtract: support added for UDR Functions, Procedure and Trigger declarations.
44 +
45 + 11. TIBDatabaseInfo. New property FirebirdVersion. This returns the current Firebird version
46 +    string. Note that the Version property returns an InterBase compatible version string.
47 +
48 + 12. IBExtract: ensure sql identifiers returned as a LIST are always quoted.
49 +
50 + IBX Change Log  version (2.5-0 Build 12933) Mon, 29 Nov 2021 14:59:54 +0000
51 +
52 + 1. IBCustomDataset: Modify TISQL component now defaults to GoToFirstRecordOnExecute := true.
53 +   This is for compatibility with Firebird 5 where Update...Returning can return
54 +   a cursor.
55 +
56 + IBX Change Log  version (2.4-3 Build 12886) Sat, 23 Oct 2021 14:58:30 +0100
57 +
58 + 1. Add try-..except check when initially loading library in IDE. This should
59 + ensure that IDE continues to load even when a failure occurs in IBX load
60 + library.
61 +
62 + 2. IBXScript: now recognises a CASE...END block within a stored procedure and
63 +   hence will correctly detect end of the outer containing block when the block
64 +   contains a SELECT ... CASE ... END construct.
65 +
66 + 3. IBExtract: some further tidying up to remove extraneous white space.
67 +
68 + 4. IBCustomDataSet: DefaultFieldClasses array declaration updated to avoid compile time
69 +   errors when extra elements are added to DB.TFieldType.
70 +
71 + 5. IBUpdate: updated to reflect changes to ISQLParam.
72 +
73 + 6. IBXScript: now correctly parses a DECLARE statement which includes a quoted string.
74 +
75 + 7. IBExtract: for ODS >=13, increment generator value by one for ALTER SEQUENCE statement.
76 +
77 + 8. IBSQL: Support for scrollable cursors added (note: local databases only)
78 +
79 + IBX Change Log  version (2.4-2 Build 12773) Mon, 23 Aug 2021 11:59:42 +0100
80 +
81 + 1. TIBDatabaseInfo: review and tidy-up of property types. Most widen to int64 with the
82 +   exception of those defined to be one byte wide e.g. DBImplementationNo.
83 +
84 + 2. TIBSQL: Batch Update/Insert support added.
85 +
86 + 3. TIBStoredProc: when generating the SQL, the value of the StoredProcName property
87 +   is no longer automatically converted to upper case when it is syntactically a
88 +   SQL Identifier. This is to support the use of stored procedures defined e.g.
89 +   as CREATE PROCEDURE "iCASE".
90 +
91 +   There could be a backwards compatibility issue when the StoredProcName was entered
92 +   manually at design time. That is not selected from the drop down list. If the
93 +   StoredProcName is entered in mixed case and the procedure was declared e.g. as
94 +   CREATE PROCEDURE iCASE, then the SQL generation will be incorrect. You should
95 +   ensure that the value of the StoredProcName is all upper case, unless it was
96 +   declared under dialect 3 and explicitly as mixed case (i.e. delimited by double
97 +   quotes).
98 +
99 +   Note that when a stored procedure name was declared delimited in double quotes,
100 +   as in the first example above, the value of the StoredProcName property must not
101 +   include the delimiters (double quotes).
102 +
103 + 4. IBXUpgradeConfFile: an exception is now raised if a patch file specified in
104 +   upgrade.conf was not found. This replaces silently ignoring the problem.
105 +
106 + 5. TIBLocalDBSupport: new property "SectionHeaderTemplate". This defaults to
107 +   'Version.%.3d' and is used to generate the section header names (for a given
108 +   version no.) in the upgrade.conf file.
109 +
110 + IBX Change Log  version (2.4-1 Build 12550) Wed, 23 Jun 2021 13:59:14 +0100
111 +
112 + 1. -c command line option added to fbsql example program. Used to set connection
113 +   character set.
114 +
115 + IBX Change Log  version (2.4-0 Build 12543) Mon, 22 Feb 2021 11:00:08 +0000
116 +
117 + 1. Firebird 4 support added.
118 +
119 + 2. New FB4 data types TIME WITH TIME ZONE, TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE, DECFLOAT and
120 +   extended precision NUMERIC fields are supported.
121 +
122 + 3. TFmtBCDField is used to support access to DECFLOAT and extended precision NUMERIC fields.
123 +
124 + 4. TIBDateTimeField and TIBTimeField are introduced in support of TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE
125 +   and TIME WITH TIME ZONE fields. These inherit from TDateTimeField.
126 +
127 + 5. IBExtract now supports FB4 enhancements:
128 +   - new data types as above
129 +   - Identity column extensions
130 +   - Default user role
131 +   - SQL Security clause for Database, Tables, Procedures, Functions and Triggers
132 +   - Internal Functions
133 +
134 + 6. IBExtract: new event: OnExtractLines.
135 +
136 + 7. IBExtract: revert create trigger to legacy syntax see Firebird CORE-6243, CORE-5545 and DOC-145
137 +
138 + 8. IBXServices: Server version no. parsing now allows any letter before major version number
139 +   and is no longer restricted to 'V' e.g. "LI-T4.0.0.1436 Firebird 4.0 Beta 1"
140 +
141 + 9. TIBDataSet and TIBQuery: new property TZTextOption. Used to determine the default
142 +   format for rendering a time zone.
143 +
144 + 10. TIBDataSet and TIBQuery: new property DefaultTZDate. Used to provide the default date
145 +     to convert TIME WITH TIME ZONE data type values to and from GMT.
146 +
147 + 11. Unit name IBTypes changed to IBInternals. Internal interfaces TIBGUIInterface and TIBTimerInf renamed to
148 +    IIBGUIInterface and IIBTimerInf respectively.
149 +
150 + 12. Constants: DPBPrefix and TPBPrefix moved to IB unit. DPBConstantNames and TPBConstantNames
151 +    now accessible as properties of TIBDatabase and TIBTransaction respectively.
152 +
153 + 13. String Fields: when a fixed character with (CHAR) field is returned, it is now
154 +    truncated to its fixed character width rather than being right padded with
155 +    white space to the maximum data size.
156 +
157 + 14. TIBTable.Empty table. In additional to deleting all records in the underlying
158 +    table, the internal buffers are now also flushed ensuring that the TIBTable is
159 +    also empty.
160 +
161 + 15. TBatchSQLStatementReader: Line buffer is now cleared on call to reset.
162 +
163 + 16. TIBXControlService descendents: DatabaseName may now be set using a database
164 +    connect string. The database name is extracted from the connect string.
165 +
166 + 17. DBControlGrid: Minor bug fixes. avoid AV on form closure, avoid black panel
167 +
168 + 18. TIBExtract: Data type of COMPUTED By columns is no longer included in SQL.
169 +
170 + 19. Local database on Linux and with legacy API and FB 2.5 embedded server: fixed problem with password
171 +    not being present as required.
172 +
173 + 20. IBTreeView split into DBTreeView and IBTreeView. This former is an IBX indepedent
174 +    version that can be customised to work with other database drivers.
175 +
176 + 21. ISQLMonitor: use platform specific LineEnding to delimit messages. Avoids
177 +    unnecessary CR at end of line on Unix platforms.
178 +
179 + 22. ISQLMonitor: Unix: Default semaphore timeout increased from 1 second to 10
180 +    seconds in order to reduce risk of message loss.
181 +
182 + 23. ISQLMonitor: read and write count statistics now available via:
183 +      property TIBSQLMonitor.ReadCount;
184 +      IIBSQLMonitorHook.GetWriteCount: integer;
185 +
186 + 24. ISQLMonitor tidy up and unit split. IPC functions moved to new unit IBIPC.
187 +
188   IBX Change Log  version (2.3-5 Build 12350) Tue, 25 Aug 2020 16:11:02 +0100
189  
190   1.  TIBStringField: when a string value is read from a dataset buffer, if the
# Line 10 | Line 197 | IBX Change Log  version (2.3-5 Build 123
197      SQLFilterParams property is assumed to be a SQL condition clause and
198      ANDed into the Where clause of the SQL Select statement provided as a
199      dataset property. Each such SQL condition thus acts as an additional filter
200 <    on the dataset. (Not yet tested)
200 >    on the dataset.
201  
202   3.  The Filtered property inherited from TDataset is no longer used for SQL (server
203      side filters).
# Line 45 | Line 232 | IBX Change Log  version (2.3-5 Build 123
232      added back in.
233  
234   12. IBCustomDataSet: CanInsert, CanEdit, CanDelete and CanRefresh updated to return
235 <    false if query contains white space and not just empty.
235 >    false if query contains only white space and not just empty.
236  
237   12. IBCustomDataset: Blob data is now cleared when TDataSet.Cancel is called. This
238      should ensure that (e.g.) a TDBMemo is correctly refreshed after a dataset edit
239      is cancelled.
240  
241 + 13. IBCustomDataset: SetArrayIntf should no longer cause an access violation if
242 +    called on a null field.
243 +
244 + 14. IBCustomDataSet: An access violation should no longer occur when calling CancelUpdates
245 +    results in an empty dataTC86                Client side Filtered Dataset    1       X
246 + set.
247 +
248 + 15. IBCustomDataSet: OnUpdateError should now be called in all circumstances when
249 +    a cached update is applied and an exception is raised.
250 +
251 + 16. IBCustomDataSet: Avoid access violation when SetBookmarkData called with nil pointer.
252 +
253 + 17. Console Mode Local Database support: backup/restore should now work correctly.
254 +
255 + 18. Local Database Support: if an upgrade fails, a downgrade is now performed if
256 +    possible and an exception raised.
257 +
258 + 19. MinimumVersionNo added to Local Database Support. Database will not open if
259 +    below this version no. and upgrade not possible.
260 +
