1 + FBINTF Change Log  version                               (1.1-1) Tue, 16 Jan 2018 16:49:37 +0000
2 +
3 + 1. IBUtils.QuoteIdentifierIfNeeded: Add check for space character.
4 +
5 + 2. IAttachment: add two new methods
6 +     function HasDefaultCharSet: boolean;
7 +     function GetDefaultCharSetID: integer;
8 +
9 +   These return, respectively, true if a connection default character set was
10 +   specified and the character set id of the connection defautl character set.
11 +
12 + 3. FB3 Interface Implementation: Blob metadata may not be retrieved for blob parameters
13 +   for stored procedures.
14 +
15 + FBINTF Change Log  version                             (1.1-0) Sun, 07 Jan 2018 15:20:02 +0000
16 +
17 + 1. Fix issues with setting SQL Param values using SetAsString with Numeric types.
18 +   Scale is no longer ignored.
19 +
20 + 2. Fix issues with setting SQL Param values using SetAsString with Date values
21 +   not in locale format but which are recognised by Firebird. Date values that
22 +   cannot be converted to a string using Pascal library are now passed through
23 +   to Firebird as Text Strings.
24 +
25 + 3. Lookup character set name by codepage amended to ensure that CP_UTF8 returns
26 +   UTF8 and not UNICODE_FSS.
27 +
28 + 4. Charset ID problem. When using Firebird 3, with no default database character set
29 +   and a column has a non-default collation specified, an incorrect character set
30 +   id was being reported that could result in a 'division by zero' error when
31 +   used by IBX. This has now been fixed.
32 +
33 + 5. Move GetCharsetName, CharSetID2CodePage, CodePage2CharSetID, CharSetName2CharSetID,
34 +   CharSetWidth from IFirebirdAPI to IAttachment. This is a better data model as
35 +   the character sets supported can be updated on a per database basis. That is
36 +   it is possible to add a (Firebird) user defined character set to a database.
37 +
38 + 6. Add RegisterCharSet to IAttachment. This is used to register a user defined character
39 +   set supported by Firebird with the API.
40 +
41 + 7. Add missing isc_info_db_read_only to list of decoded Database Information items
42 +   in FBOutputBlock.pas and update test suite to include this item.
43 +
44 + 8. FB30Client: avoid always using "StartMultiple" when only a single database attachment.
45 +
46 + 9. Loading Windows fbclient.dll: when using the FIREBIRD variable to locate the client
47 +   library or finding it by disk location, the PATH environment variable is now also set to
48 +   include the FIREBIRD directory. This is to ensure that the correct dlls in the
49 +   firebird client library dependencies are loaded.
50 +
51 + 10. Testsuite: Ensure consistent UTF-8 output on Windows console.
52 +
53 + 11. Testsuite: Update Windows script to include FPC 3.0.4 in search path.
54 +
55 + 12. FB30Statement: Protect call to "Move" and avoid calling with a nil pointer
56 +
57 + 13. FB30Statement: A check has been added to ensure that all SQL Parameters
58 +    have been given a value (including NULL). Previously, failing to set the
59 +    value of an SQL Parameter could give rise to unpredictable results or
60 +    an SQLDA error.
61 +
62 + 14. FB30Statement/FB25Statement: Set SQLParam "modified" when string value set.
63 +
64 + 15. FBAttachment: Avoid string reference count error when processing an Ansistring
65 +    parameter in an array of const passed to IAttachment.OpenCursor, etc.
66 +
67 + 16. FBAttachment: Allow for WideString and UnicodeString parameters in an array
68 +    of const passed to IAttachment.OpenCursor, etc.
69 +
70 +
71 + FBINTF Change Log  version             (1.0-2) Sat, 04 Mar 2017 14:43:56 +0000
72 +
73 + 1. Change syntax to Mode Delphi
74 +
75 + 2. Change all uses of string type to explicit AnsiString in order to ensure
76 +   compatibility between Delphi and FPC.
77 +
78 + 3. Various syntax changes to ensure Delphi and FPC compilation including GUIDs
79 +   defined for each interface.
80 +
81 + 4. Generics syntax variations for Delphi added
82 +
83 + 5. PChar replaced with PByte expect where an actual string is being referenced,
84 +   where PAnsiChar is used instead.
85 +
86 + 6. Review of type definitions in IBExternals to ensure Delphi compatibility
87 +
88 + 7. Testsuite updated for Delphi
89 +
90 + FBINTF Change Log  version            (1.0-1) Fri, 24 Feb 2017 12:17:57 +0000
91 +
92 + 1. Limit maximum Blob segment read/write to MaxuShort. Avoids data loss with
93 +   large blobs and the FB3 API.
94 +
95 + 2. Update Event Handling algorithm to avoid looping due to recreation of the
96 +   event block.
97 +
98 + 3. Avoid invalid XSQLDA error when the only parameter is updated to null
99 +
100 + 4. Array Handling: fix problem with text arrays with character set none. When the
101 +   DB connection has a default character set (e.g. UTF8), an error is raised by
102 +   Firebird if the space allocated is not enough to allow for transliteration, even
103 +   though it is not required for character set none.
104 +
105 + 5. IBUtils: List of reserved words brought up-to-date
106 +
107 + 6. Add ISQL style performance statistics collection to IStatement
108 +
109 + 7. Add IFirebirdAPI.CreateDatabase variant to allow execution of user provided
110 +   CREATE DATABASE statement.
111 +
112 + 8. Update SQL Statement parsing to allow for Array Dimensions. That is so that the ':' in
113 +   an array dimension is not mistaken for a named parameter prefix.
114 +
115 + 9. Trim function no longer applied to result of GetAsString for SQL_TEXT
116 +   when Character set is octets. Avoids loss of non printable characters at start of string.
117 +
118 + 10. Add function GetPerfStatistics to IStatement. This returns ISQL like performance
119 +    statistics for the last action. Requires use of procedure IStatement.EnableStatistics
120 +    to enable stats gathering.
121 +
122 + 11. API Version information added as constants to IB.pas
123 +
124 + 12. BlobMetaData character set id should now be the same as that given by IColumnMetaData.GetCharSetID
125 +
126 + 13. Firebird Character set "NONE" now interpreted as codepage CP_ACP.
127 +
