1 + FBINTF Change Log  version          (1.3-2 Build 12832) Fri, 15 Oct 2021 12:03:18 +0100
2 +
3 + 1. TFBClientAPI.GetProcAddr. Add check for nil reference.
4 +
5 + 2. IStatement: new methods:
6 +    procedure SetStaleReferenceChecks(Enable:boolean); {default true}
7 +    function GetStaleReferenceChecks: boolean;
8 +
9 +   In previous versions, stale reference checks were always enabled. This allows the
10 +   user to disable them on a per statement basis. Note this can risk out-of-date
11 +   statement BLR. See User Guide.
12 +
13 + 3. IBUtils: TSQLwithNamedParamsTokeniser now recognises a CASE...END block within a
14 +   stored procedure and hence avoids replacing named parameters within a containing
15 +   BEGIN..END block.
16 +
17 + 4. ISQLParam: using a string value to set an integer field with a scale factor of
18 +   zero is now treated as a special case to avoid the risk of floating point
19 +   rounding errors affecting pure integers.
20 +
21 + 5. ISQLParam:  Review and tidy-up of SetAsString for numeric types.
22 +
23 + 6. ISQLParam is now subclassed from IParamMetaData, which provides access to the mutable
24 +   SQL Parameter metadata (methods moved from ISQLParam).
25 +
26 + 7. ISQLParam: new method
27 +     function getColMetadata: IParamMetaData;
28 +   This instance of IParamMetaData returns the original column metadata which is unmutable.
29 +   Note: ISQLParam metadata can change after a parameter value has been set e.g when
30 +   setting a VARCHAR column to an integer value.
31 +
32 +
33 + FBINTF Change Log  version          (1.3-1 Build 12776) Mon, 23 Aug 2021 11:09:33 +0100
34 +
35 + 1. Integer decodes in information blocks (e.g. IDBInfoItem) widened from 32 bit to 64-bit integers.
36 +
37 + 2. Support for inline blob encoding. Blob values pass using the "SetAsString" method
38 +   will now be encoded inline (i.e. as part of the parameter buffer) if they are
39 +   shorter than a pre-set limit. Longer values continue to be saved as blobs as a
40 +   separate server interaction. This is intended as a performance optimisation.
41 +
42 +   The pre-set limit defaults to 8192 bytes and can be inspected/modified using the new
43 +   IAttachment interface functions:
44 +
45 +    function GetInlineBlobLimit: integer;
46 +    procedure SetInlineBlobLimit(limit: integer);
47 +
48 + 3. Support for Firebird 4 IBatch interface added. This is largely transparent to the API
49 +   user as the functionality is embedded in the implementation of the IStatement
50 +   interface. Three new functions are defined:
51 +
52 +    procedure AddToBatch;
53 +    function ExecuteBatch(aTransaction: ITransaction=nil): IBatchCompletion;
54 +    procedure CancelBatch;
55 +    function GetBatchCompletion: IBatchCompletion;
56 +    function GetBatchRowLimit: integer;
57 +    procedure SetBatchRowLimit(aLimit: integer);
58 +
59 +   Also
60 +
61 +    function IsInBatchMode: boolean;        {true after call to execute(eaDefer)}
62 +    function HasBatchMode: boolean;         {true if and only if IBatch Supported}
63 +
64 +   For more information see the User Guide.
65 +
66 + 4. Default error message contents. Now aligned with User Guide section 10.2 i.e. error messages
67 +   provided with the EIBInterBaseError now include all three parts.
68 +
69 + 5. Firebird.pas and include files updated to Firebird 4.0.0
70 +
71 + 6. New IStatement method: function GetSQLStatementTypeName: AnsiString;
72 +   Returns SQL Statement type as a text string;
73 +
74 + 7. ISQLData.AsInteger and AsInt64 now use "Round" to convert a float field to
75 +   an integer instead of "trunc". This is for compatibility with TFloatField.AsInteger.
76 +
77 + FBINTF Change Log  version          (1.2-1 Build 12552) Wed, 09 Jun 2021 13:05:40 +0100
78 +
79 + 1. Big fix for Firebird 4.0. A internal change in Firebird 4.0.0 from RC1 flushed out a
80 +   typo in FB30Statement.pas that caused an unknown parameter error.
81 +
82   FBINTF Change Log  version          (1.2-0 Build 12520) Fri, 19 Feb 2021 13:27:23 +0000
83  
84   1. Imported (Firebird) constants updated for Firebird 4.
