8 >
9 > 1. DARWIN only syntax error: fix missing semi-colon in TFBClientAPI.LoadIBLibrary
10 >
11 > 2. Restrict IsMultiThread check to Unix only for compatibility with
12 >   https://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=30535
13 >
14 > 3. New SQL Tokeniser added to IBUtils. This is used to pre-process SQL with
15 >   named parameters and is intended to avoid problems with (e.g.) Execute Block
16 >   and processing internal parameters as statement parameters.
17 >
18 > 4. New interface IFirebirdLibrary provides access to the underlying firebird DLL
19 >   or shared object. Available via a new member (GetFBLibrary) of IFirebirdAPI.
20 >
21 > 5. New function added to IB.pas
22 >
23 >   function LoadFBLibrary(aLibPathName: string): IFirebirdLibrary
24 >
25 >   This allows a Firebird Library to be loaded from an explicit path. use the
26 >   IFirebirdLibrary.GetFirebirdAPI member function to get the Firebird API using
27 >   the library. It is possible to load Firebird libraries from different locations
28 >   simultaneously, each with a distinct IFirebirdAPI.
29 >

31 >
32 > 1. Firebird.pas: {$OBJECTCHECKS OFF} added to file to avoid runtime error when
33 >   program compiled with -CR command line switch.
34 >
35 > 2. IServiceManager additions (informational):
36 >    function getProtocol: TProtocol;
37 >    function getPortNo: AnsiString;
38 >
39 > 3. IServiceManager improved error handling. Interfaces changed:
40 >    function Start(Request: ISRB; RaiseExceptionOnError: boolean=true): boolean;
41 >    function Query(SQPB: ISQPB; Request: ISRB; RaiseExceptionOnError: boolean=true) :IServiceQueryResults; overload;
42 >    function Query(Request: ISRB; RaiseExceptionOnError: boolean=true) :IServiceQueryResults; overload;
43 >
44 > 4. IAttachment addition (informational)
45 >    function GetSecurityDatabase: AnsiString;
46 >
47 > 5. IStatement: performance counters now updated after each Fetch. GetPerfStatistics
48 >   thus now returns accumulated stats for a select statement from opening a cursor
49 >   up to the last fetch.
50 >
51 > 6. DARWIN: uloadlibrary.inc bug fix. Many thanks to Luigi Naimi for correcting
52 >   the problem.
53 >
54 > 7. Type change: "TPerfCounters = array[TPerfStats] of Int64". Note "Int64"
55 >   replaces deprecated "comp" type.
56 >
57 > 10. Testsuite Test10 updated to include thread synchronisation for event reporting.
58 >
59 > 11. URL Connection Strings: inet4 and inet6 now recognised.
60 >
61 > 12. IBUtils: Parse and Make Connect String now recognise URL style loopback syntax.
62 >
63 > 13. IAttachment.CharSetName2CharSetID is now performed case insensitive.

72       function GetDefaultCharSetID: integer;
73  
74     These return, respectively, true if a connection default character set was
75 <   specified and the character set id of the connection defautl character set.
75 >   specified and the character set id of the connection default character set.
76 >   The DefaultCharSetID is cached when the connection is opened and hence does not
77 >   require a database lookup.
78 >
79 > 3. Avoid exception when a text blob is a stored procedure parameter.
80 >
81 > 4. Update test suite to include a test for a stored proc returning a text blob.
82 >
83 > 5. IAttachment: add
84 >      function GetRemoteProtocol: AnsiString;
85 >      function GetODSMajorVersion: integer;
86 >      function GetODSMinorVersion: integer;
87 >      function GetAuthenticationMethod: AnsiString;
88 >
89 >   These results are cached when the connection is opened and hence do not
90 >   require a database lookup.
91 >
92 > 6. IAttachment: add "function GetConnectString: AnsiString;" This returns the
93 >   connect string used to create/connect to the database.
94 >
95 > 7. IAttachment: Create Database using SQL statement. The username and password
96 >   are now extracted and used to populate a DPB made available via IAttachment.getDPB.
97 >   It is now possible to use IAttachment disconnect/connect to reconnect to
98 >   a database for which the initial connection was established by a create
99 >   database sql statement. Available in FPC only.
100 >
101 > 8. Update Test 1 to test 5, 6 and 7 above.
102 >
103 > 9. IBUtils code tidy up.
104 >
105 > 10. Parameter Block interfaces "find" method. As documented, this should have
106 >   returned a nil interface when the item could not be found. Instead, an empty
107 >   interface item was returned. "Find" now works as documented and will return
108 >   a nil interface if the item cannot be found.
109 >
110 > 11. DBInformation: support added for isc_info_active_tran_count and isc_info_creation_date.
111 >
112 > 12. DBInformation: New interfaces: IDIRB and IDIRBItem added to support DB Information
113 >    requests with additional parameters. This is to enable support for fb_info_page_contents
114 >    (return of page contents). Response to fb_info_page_contents returned as
115 >    a string with code page CP_NONE.
116 >
117 > 13. DBInformation: Support for fb_info_pages_used and fb_info_pages_free added, plus
118 >    test suite updated.
119 >
120 > 14. DBInformation: Support for fb_info_crypt_key (Firebird 3.0.3 onwards) added as
121 >    a string type, and fb_info_conn_flags (Firebird 3.0.3 onwards) added as an integer type.
122  
123 < 3. FB3 Interface Implementation: Blob metadata may not be retrieved for blob parameters
124 <   for stored procedures.
123 > 15. Service Manager: List of protocols supported expanded to include inet, wnet and xnet.
124 >    An overloaded version of IIFirebirdAPI.GetServiceManager also allows a non
125 >    default connection port to be specified.
