1 + IBX Change Log  version                  (2.0-1) Mon, 09 Jan 2017 15:31:49 +0000
2 +
3 + 1. TIBEvents: Fix uninitialised variable that could result in lost events.
4 +
5 + 2. TIBExtract: Added support for FB3 "USAGE" privilege.
6 +
7 + 3. TIBExtract: data formatted as Charset set "octets" is now output using
8 +   hexadecimal notation.
9 +
10 + 4. TIBExtract: Binary Blobs and array data can now be embedded in INSERT statements
11 +   using a simple XML format.
12 +
13 + 5. TIBExtract: extract of individual Triggers and Stored Procedures can now include
14 +   grants to these objects.
15 +
16 + 6. TIBExtract: Stored Procedures and Views output in dependency order to avoid
17 +   dependency problems restoring complex databases.
18 +
19 + 7. TIBXScript: This component has been restructured to allow for the processing of
20 +   embedded XML in INSERT statements and to support interactive sources in addition
21 +   to non-interactive data sources such as files.
22 +
23 + 8. TIBXScript: CREATE DATABASE, DROP DATABASE, CONNECT statements are now supported.
24 +
25 + 9. TIBXScript: ISQL compatiable Set statements are now supported:
26 +   SET SQL DIALECT
27 +   SET TERM
28 +   SET AUTODDL
29 +   SET BAIL
30 +   SET ECHO
31 +   SET COUNT
32 +   SET STATS
33 +   SET NAMES <character set>
34 +
35 + 10. IBVersion unit added to hold current IBX Version Number information.
36 +
37 + 11. TIBExtract: Use character rather than byte length for VarChar procedure arguments.,
38 +    and domain definitions.
39 +
40 + 12. TIBExtract: Triggers now use SQL2003 syntax and database and transaction triggers
41 +    fully supported.
42 +
43 + 13. TIBExtract: when a database dump includes data, the generator values are now also set.
44 +
45 + 14: IBSQLEdit: Unit LCLPlatformDef added to uses clauses for lazarus 1.7 and later.
46 +
47 + IBX Change Log  version     (2.0-0) Tue, 06 Dec 2016 10:33:44 +0000
48 +
49 + See also doc/readme.upgrade-4-x.to.2-0-0.xhtml for important information on
50 + upgrading to IBX2.
51 +
52 + 1. Size property of TIBStringField is now the width in characters of the field
53 +   and not the byte length. This applies only to multi-byte character sets such
54 +   as UTF8. The original approach aligned with TStringField. However, the TStringField
55 +   code is not recognised as a bug and hence this change to align the behaviour.
56 +   The TStringField change is expected in fpc 3.2.0.
57 +
58 + 2. A new property AutoFieldSize: boolean has been added to TIBStringField. When
59 +   true (default) then Size property value saved in the lfm is ignored. Size is
60 +   always set from the dynamic information read from the database. It is unclear
61 +   why anyone would want to override this and set Size to false.
62 +
63 + 3. ibxscript: should now handle correctly a Case..End statement within a procedure
64 +   block.
65 +
66 + 4. IBDatabase: new property - CreateIfNotExists. If true and database does not
67 +   exist when an attempt is made to connect to it (run time only) then an attempt
68 +   is made to create the database.
69 +
70 + 5. IBDatabase: new event - OnCreateDatabase. This event is called after a database
71 +   has been successfully created as a result of a call to CreateDatabase or when
72 +   creating a database after it was found not to exist.
73 +
74 + 6.  DBControlGrid: a race condition could result in the wrong row image being
75 +    written to the cache. This has been avoided by a trip round the message
76 +    loop before rendering the row image.
77 +
78 + 7.  DBControlGrid: It is strongly recommended not to open the source DataSet for
79 +    a DBControlGrid during a Form's "OnShow" event handler. Under GTK2 this is
80 +    known to risk corrupt rendering of row images when the control is first
81 +    displayed. If necessary use "Application.QueueAsyncCall" to delay opening
82 +    of the dataset (see DBControlGrid examples) until the Form's Window has been created.
83 +
84 + 8.  DBControlGrid & IBDynamicGrid: Navigation keys should now work correctly with
85 +    a TDateEdit control located on an editor panel.
86 +
87 + 9.  TIBExtract: brought up-to-date plus many bug fixes.
88 +
89 + 10. DBControlGrid: Removed memory leak when updating rows.
90 +
91 + 11. TIBCMLocalDBSupport: fixed invalid free on upgrade.
92 +
93 + IBX Change Log  version                                           (1.4-3) Thu, 22 Sep 2016 18:10:15 +0100
94 +
95 + 1. IBCustomDataset: When calling SetCodePage, no longer request transliteration
96 +   when target codepage is CP_NONE. This is a workaround for
97 +   http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=30622.
98 +
99 + 2. DBLog option removed from TIBStatisticalService - not supported by server
100 +   since Firebird 1.5.
101 +
102 + 3. ibxscript: An error is no longer generated for "on commit preserve rows" or
103 +   similar.
104 +
105 + 4. IBCodePage: updated mapping between codepages and character id.
106 +
107 + 5. ftWideString and ftWideMemo withdrawn. There is no UTF16 character set in
108 +   Firebird. Character sets with a char width of two are not UTF16.
109 +
110 + 6. Strings received from the database are now always transliterated into UTF8
111 +   regardless of the database character set or connection character set. This
112 +   is for compatibility with the LCL.
113 +
114 + IBX Change Log  version  (1.4-2) Thu, 22 Sep 2016 15:25:27 +0100
115 +
116 + 1. IBBlob: Defer reading of blob until read method called. This avoids having to
117 +   read in an entire blob just to get the size of the blob. General performance
118 +   improvement when opening datasets containing blobs.
119 +
120 + 2. Clearing a  Blob now sets the corresponding field's modified flag.
121 +
122 + 3. IBLookupCombo: When not performing auto-complete, original query sort order
123 +   is now used.
124 +
125 + 4. IBDynamicGrid: Add OnSelectEditor event. Allows editor panel to be dynamically
126 +   determined.
127 +
128 + 5. IBDynamicGrid: Recompute column widths after dataset closed and re-opened.
129 +
130 + 6. IBLookupCombo: LazUTF8 added to uses clause to avoid compilation problems post
131 +   lazarus 1.6.0
132 +
133 + 7. IBControls. Removed "runtime" from list of paths to avoid "multiple packages"
134 +   compilation error.
135 +
136 + IBX Change Log  version                                 (1.4-1) Tue, 17 May 2016 09:14:51 +0100
137 +
138 + 1. No character set specified for connection: when a text blob is retrieved, the
139 +  character set is determined by looking up the native character set using then
140 +  Firebird API. Otherwise a text mode blob is assumed to have the same character
141 +  set as the connection.
142 +
143 + 2. TIBGUIInterface: this is an internal interface. Minor type changes to allow
144 +   for Login Dialog returing a change to the database path.
145 +
146 + 3. Design Time Database and Server login Dialogs now allow the Database Name/Server Name
147 +   to be changed from that given in the TIBDatabase/TIBServer component and for the
148 +   entered value to be saved on a project specific basis (design time only).
149 +
150 + 4. IBDynamicGrid: TDBLookupCellEditor now compares its DataFieldName with the
151 +   column fieldname. If they are the same then it is acts as a look up for the KeyValue
152 +   Otherwise, it sets the column text to the selected ListField Value.
153 +
154 + 5. IBDynamicGrid: Only visible columns are now taken into account When recalculating
155 +   column width.
156 +
157 + 6. IBLookupComboEditBox: Fix error with autocomplete query when a RelationName is given
158 +   and a case insensitive search is requested.
159 +
160 + 7. IBDynamicGrid: No longer ignores notifications removing Column Totals controls
161 +   or column ListSource.
162 +
163 + 8. IBQuery: no longer performs unnecessary refresh of SQL Text (and hence avoids an
164 +   unprepare) when closing and the text has not changed.
165 +
166 + 9. IBSQL: Base the cursor name on a GUID instead of a hexstr version of the class pointer.
167 +   Less likely to cause a cursor re-use error on Windows.
168 +
169 + 10.SV5IPC: include workaround for OSX. FPC 3.0.0 has broken ipc module for darwin.
170 +   Expected to be fixed in 3.0.2. Hence workaround only applies to 3.0.0.
171 +
172 + 11. TIBTreeView: Guard against nil destination on record changed
173 +
174 + 12. AnsiString Code page support: TIBStringField.AsString and TIBMemoField.AsString now return a
175 +    string type with the code page set to reflect the returned field encoding after
176 +    Firebird driver transliteration, if any.  FPC 3.0.0 onwards only. Behaviour unchanged for
177 +    earlier versions.
178 +
179 + 13. AnsiString Code page support: Assigning to TIBStringField.AsString and TIBMemoField.AsString
180 +    will now result in transliteration to the code page specified for the Firebird driver
181 +    if the assigned string has a different code page. FPC 3.0.0 onwards only.
182 +
183 + 14. TIBDatabase: new property UseDefaultSystemCodePage. When set any lc_ctype parameter
184 +    is ignored and the lc_ctype value, when the database is opened, is set to align with
185 +    the DefaultSystemCodePage (FPC 3.0.0 onwards). Normally, this is what you want and should ensure
186 +    platform independence. Note: this applies to FPC 3.0.0 and earlier versions. Pre FPC
187 +    3.0.0, when this property is true, the lc_ctype is UTF8 except under windows when
188 +    the GETACP is used to determine the Windows code page.
189 +
190 + 15. TIBDatabase: new property DefaultCharSetName. This is the Firebird character set
191 +    name used as the lc_ctype when the database was opened. Only valid while the
192 +    Database is connected.
193 +
194 + 16. TIBDatabase: new property DefaultCodePage (FPC >=3.0.0 only). This is the codepage
195 +    id that corresponds to the DefaultCharSetName.
196 +
