3	>	1. Big fix for Firebird 4.0. A internal change in Firebird 4.0.0 from RC1 flushed out a
4	>	typo in FB30Statement.pas that caused an unknown parameter error.

7	>
8	>	1. Imported (Firebird) constants updated for Firebird 4.
9	>
10	>	2. Firebird.pas from Firebird 4 integrated into source code tree.
11	>
12	>	3. Added Support for TIMETAMP WITH TIME ZONE and TIME WITH TIME ZONE data types.
13	>
14	>	4. Added Support for SQL_DEC16, SQL_DEC34 and extended NUMERIC precision.
15	>
16	>	5. New unit 'FBClientLib.pas' added and provides new interface IFBIMasterProvider.
17	>	QueryInterface may be used to coerce this interface from IFirebirdAPI. The
18	>	interface provides a single method "function GetIMasterIntf: IMaster". This provides
19	>	type safe access to the Firebird IMaster interface and avoids the need to turn
20	>	off object checks when coercing "function GetIMaster: TObject" to IMaster.
21	>
22	>	6. New IFirebirdAPI Calls:
23	>	function HasLocalTZDB: boolean;
24	>	function HasTimeZoneSupport: boolean;
25	>	function HasExtendedTZSupport: boolean;
26	>	procedure SQLDecFloatEncode(aValue: tBCD; SQLType: cardinal; bufptr: PByte);
27	>	function SQLDecFloatDecode(SQLType: cardinal; scale: integer; bufptr: PByte): tBCD;
28	>
29	>	7. New IAttachment Calls:
30	>	function HasDecFloatSupport: boolean;
31	>	function GetTimeZoneServices: ITimeZoneServices;
32	>	function HasTimeZoneSupport: boolean;
33	>
34	>	8. New Interface ITimeZoneServices.
35	>
36	>	9. New ISQLData API Calls:
37	>	procedure GetAsDateTime(var aDateTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezoneID: TFBTimeZoneID); overload;
38	>	procedure GetAsDateTime(var aDateTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezone: AnsiString); overload;
39	>	procedure GetAsTime(var aTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezoneID: TFBTimeZoneID; OnDate: TDateTime); overload;
40	>	procedure GetAsTime(var aTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezone: AnsiString; OnDate: TDateTime); overload;
41	>	function GetAsUTCDateTime: TDateTime;
42	>	function GetAsBCD: tBCD;
43	>
44	>	10. New ISQLParam API Calls
45	>	procedure GetAsDateTime(var aDateTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezoneID: TFBTimeZoneID); overload;
46	>	procedure GetAsDateTime(var aDateTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezone: AnsiString); overload;
47	>	procedure GetAsTime(var aTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezoneID: TFBTimeZoneID; OnDate: TDateTime); overload;
48	>	procedure GetAsTime(var aTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezone: AnsiString; OnDate: TDateTime); overload;
49	>	function GetAsUTCDateTime: TDateTime;
50	>	function GetAsBCD: tBCD;
51	>	function GetStatement: IStatement;
52	>	function GetTransaction: ITransaction;
53	>	procedure SetAsTime(aValue: TDateTime; OnDate: TDateTime; aTimeZoneID: TFBTimeZoneID); overload;
54	>	procedure SetAsTime(aValue: TDateTime; OnDate: TDateTime; aTimeZone: AnsiString); overload;
55	>	procedure SetAsDateTime(aValue: TDateTime; aTimeZoneID: TFBTimeZoneID); overload;
56	>	procedure SetAsDateTime(aValue: TDateTime; aTimeZone: AnsiString); overload;
57	>	procedure SetAsUTCDateTime(aUTCTime: TDateTime);
58	>	procedure SetAsBcd(aValue: tBCD);
59	>
60	>	11. New IArray API Calls
61	>	procedure GetAsDateTime(index: array of integer; var aDateTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezoneID: TFBTimeZoneID); overload;
62	>	procedure GetAsDateTime(index: array of integer; var aDateTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezone: AnsiString); overload;
63	>	procedure GetAsTime(index: array of integer; var aTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezoneID: TFBTimeZoneID; OnDate: TDateTime); overload;

73	>	var aTimezone: AnsiString; aFormatSettings: TFormatSettings; TimeOnly: boolean=false): boolean;
74	>	procedure FBDecodeTime(aTime: TDateTime; var Hour, Minute, Second: word; var DeciMillisecond: cardinal);
75	>	function FBEncodeTime(Hour, Minute, Second, DeciMillisecond: cardinal): TDateTime;
76	>	function FBFormatDateTime(fmt: AnsiString; aDateTime: TDateTime): AnsiString;
77	>	function FormatTimeZoneOffset(EffectiveTimeOffsetMins: integer): AnsiString;
78	>	function DecodeTimeZoneOffset(TZOffset: AnsiString; var dstOffset: integer): boolean;
79	>
80	>	13. IDPB, ITPB and ISPB: new interface method
81	>	function AddByTypeName(ParamTypeName: AnsiString): IDPBItem/ITPBItem/ISPBItem;
82	>	This is used to add a parameter block item by the string equivalent of its
83	>	symbolic type name. e.g. DPB.AddByTypeName('isc_dpb_user_name').AsString := '...'
84	>
85	>	14. IDPBItem/ITPBItem/ISPBItem: new interface method:
86	>	function getParamTypeName: AnsiString;
87	>
88	>	15. fb_shutdown now called before unloading Firebird library. This can avoid a
89	>	SIGEVENT error when a programme using the embeded server is unloaded.
90	>
91	>	FBINTF Change Log  version          (1.1-6 Build 12237) Tue, 21 Jul 2020 08:54:21 +0100
92	>
93	>	1. GetImplementationVersion now correctly returns '3.0' for Firebird 3 API
94	>	with a Firebrid 3 client library.
95	>
96	>	2. Linux Only: FIREBIRD environment variable is now checked when loading the client library.
97	>	If a client library path is not explicitly provided and the FIREBIRD environment
98	>	variable is set then the directory given by this variable and any 'lib' subdirectory
99	>	are searched for the Firebird client library. Only if none is found, is the default
100	>	client library used.
101	>
102	>	3.  IUtil.FormatStatus now used to format error messages when using new API
103	>
104	>	4.  Fixed Array SDL: array_desc_scale now correctly encoded as a signed integer.
105	>
106	>	5.  SQL_TEXT handling changed. When the value of an SQL_TEXT (i.e. fixed width string) column is
107	>	returned using GetAsString and the string codepage is UTF8, the string is truncated so
108	>	that the byte length corresponds to the number of characters specified for the column.
109	>	SQL_TEXT strings are no longer automatically trimmed to remove all trailing white space. This is
110	>	correct behaviour but may affect some implementations that relied upon automatic
111	>	trimming of trailing white space.
112	>
113	>	6.  New IFirebirdAPI Calls:
114	>	function GetClientMajor: integer;
115	>	function GetClientMinor: integer;
116	>
117	>	7.  IColumnMetaData and IArrayMetaData: new method
118	>	function GetCharSetWidth: integer;
119	>
120	>	FBINTF Change Log  version          (1.1-5 Build 12022) Fri, 17 Apr 2020 10:35:55 +0100
