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 |
+ |
function HasLocalTZDB: boolean; |

28 |
+ |
|
29 |
+ |

42 |

50 |
+ |
function GetAsBCD: tBCD; |
51 |
+ |
function GetStatement: IStatement; |
52 |
+ |

53 |
+ |
procedure SetAsTime(aValue: TDateTime; OnDate: TDateTime; aTimeZoneID: TFBTimeZoneID); overload; |
54 |
+ |

|
60 |

65 |
+ |
function GetAsUTCDateTime(index: array of integer): TDateTime; |
66 |

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 |
+ |

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 |
121 |
+ |
|
122 |
+ |
1. ISQLParams.GetHasCaseSensitiveParams added. Returns true if param names are |
123 |
+ |
case sensitive |
124 |
+ |
|
125 |
+ |
2. Single line SQL comments starting with '--' are now recognised by SQL Parser. |
126 |
+ |
|
127 |
+ |
3. New API Calls: |
128 |
+ |
IColumnMetaData.GetStatement |
129 |
+ |
IColumnMetaData.GetTransaction |
130 |
+ |
ISQLData.GetStrDataLength |
131 |
+ |
IResults.GetStatement |
132 |
+ |
IAttachment.OpenBlob (using Blob metadata) |
133 |
+ |
IAttachment.OpenArray (using array metadata) |
134 |
+ |
|
135 |
+ |
4. FBMessages: removal of unused messages |
136 |
+ |
|
137 |
+ |
5. TFBArray.Create (2nd case): ensure that FFirebirdClientAPI is correctly set. |
138 |
+ |
|
139 |
+ |
6. TIBSQLStatementType: SQLSavePoint added to end of enumeration. |
140 |
+ |
|
