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. |

FBINTF Change Log version (1.2-0 Build 12520) Fri, 19 Feb 2021 13:27:23 +0000 |

+ |
|
| 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 |
+ |

+ |

| 28 |
+ |
|
| 29 |
+ |
7. New IAttachment Calls: |

| 49 |
+ |

| 64 |
+ |

+ |
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 |

| 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 |
|
