| 2 |
|
| 3 |
1. Fix issues with setting SQL Param values using SetAsString with Numeric types. |
| 4 |
Scale is no longer ignored. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
2. Fix issues with setting SQL Param values using SetAsString with Date values |
| 7 |
not in locale format but which are recognised by Firebird. Date values that |
| 8 |
cannot be converted to a string using Pascal library are now passed through |
| 9 |
to Firebird as Text Strings. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
3. Lookup character set name by codepage amended to ensure that CP_UTF8 returns |
| 12 |
UTF8 and not UNICODE_FSS. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
4. Charset ID problem. When using Firebird 3, with no default database character set |
| 15 |
and a column has a non-default collation specified, an incorrect character set |
| 16 |
id was being reported that could result in a 'division by zero' error when |
| 17 |
used by IBX. This has now been fixed. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
5. Move GetCharsetName, CharSetID2CodePage, CodePage2CharSetID, CharSetName2CharSetID, |
| 20 |
CharSetWidth from IFirebirdAPI to IAttachment. This is a better data model as |
| 21 |
the character sets supported can be updated on a per database basis. That is |
| 22 |
it is possible to add a (Firebird) user defined character set to a database. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
6. Add RegisterCharSet to IAttachment. This is used to register a user defined character |
| 25 |
set supported by Firebird with the API. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
7. Add missing isc_info_db_read_only to list of decoded Database Information items |
| 28 |
in FBOutputBlock.pas and update test suite to include this item. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
8. FB30Client: avoid always using "StartMultiple" when only a single database attachment. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
9. Loading Windows fbclient.dll: when using the FIREBIRD variable to locate the client |
| 33 |
library or finding it by disk location, the PATH environment variable is now also set to |
| 34 |
include the FIREBIRD directory. This is to ensure that the correct dlls in the |
| 35 |
firebird client library dependencies are loaded. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
10. Testsuite: Ensure consistent UTF-8 output on Windows console. |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
11. Testsuite: Update Windows script to include FPC 3.0.4 in search path. |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
12. FB30Statement: Protect call to "Move" and avoid calling with a nil pointer |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
13. FB30Statement: A check has been added to ensure that all SQL Parameters |
| 44 |
have been given a value (including NULL). Previously, failing to set the |
| 45 |
value of an SQL Parameter could give rise to unpredictable results or |
| 46 |
an SQLDA error. |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
14. FB30Statement/FB25Statement: Set SQLParam "modified" when string value set. |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
15. FBAttachment: Avoid string reference count error when processing an Ansistring |
| 51 |
parameter in an array of const passed to IAttachment.OpenCursor, etc. |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
16. FBAttachment: Allow for WideString and UnicodeString parameters in an array |
| 54 |
of const passed to IAttachment.OpenCursor, etc. |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
|

1. Change syntax to Mode Delphi |
| 60 |
|
| 61 |
2. Change all uses of string type to explicit AnsiString in order to ensure |
| 62 |
compatibility between Delphi and FPC. |
| 63 |
|
| 64 |
3. Various syntax changes to ensure Delphi and FPC compilation including GUIDs |
| 65 |
defined for each interface. |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
4. Generics syntax variations for Delphi added |
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
5. PChar replaced with PByte expect where an actual string is being referenced, |
| 70 |
where PAnsiChar is used instead. |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
6. Review of type definitions in IBExternals to ensure Delphi compatibility |
| 73 |
|
| 74 |
7. Testsuite updated for Delphi |
| 75 |
|
| 76 |
FBINTF Change Log version (1.0-1) Fri, 24 Feb 2017 12:17:57 +0000 |
| 77 |
|
| 78 |
1. Limit maximum Blob segment read/write to MaxuShort. Avoids data loss with |
| 79 |
large blobs and the FB3 API. |
| 80 |
|
| 81 |
2. Update Event Handling algorithm to avoid looping due to recreation of the |
| 82 |
event block. |
| 83 |
|
| 84 |
3. Avoid invalid XSQLDA error when the only parameter is updated to null |
| 85 |
|
| 86 |
4. Array Handling: fix problem with text arrays with character set none. When the |
| 87 |
DB connection has a default character set (e.g. UTF8), an error is raised by |
| 88 |
Firebird if the space allocated is not enough to allow for transliteration, even |
| 89 |
though it is not required for character set none. |
| 90 |
|
| 91 |
5. IBUtils: List of reserved words brought up-to-date |
| 92 |
|
| 93 |
6. Add ISQL style performance statistics collection to IStatement |
| 94 |
|
| 95 |
7. Add IFirebirdAPI.CreateDatabase variant to allow execution of user provided |
| 96 |
CREATE DATABASE statement. |
| 97 |
|
| 98 |
8. Update SQL Statement parsing to allow for Array Dimensions. That is so that the ':' in |
| 99 |
an array dimension is not mistaken for a named parameter prefix. |
| 100 |
|
| 101 |
9. Trim function no longer applied to result of GetAsString for SQL_TEXT |
| 102 |
when Character set is octets. Avoids loss of non printable characters at start of string. |
| 103 |
|
| 104 |
10. Add function GetPerfStatistics to IStatement. This returns ISQL like performance |
| 105 |
statistics for the last action. Requires use of procedure IStatement.EnableStatistics |
| 106 |
to enable stats gathering. |
| 107 |
|
| 108 |
11. API Version information added as constants to IB.pas |
| 109 |
|
| 110 |
12. BlobMetaData character set id should now be the same as that given by IColumnMetaData.GetCharSetID |
| 111 |
|
| 112 |
13. Firebird Character set "NONE" now interpreted as codepage CP_ACP. |
| 113 |
|
| 114 |
