13 > 3. TFBAttachment.SetParameters. if an attempt is made to set a parameter with a float
14 >   value, the metadata type is checked to see if the parameter is a Date/Time type. If so then
15 >   the value is assumed to be a TDateTime and the parameter is set using the AsDateTime
16 >   property. Otherwise, the value is assumed to be a floating point type and the AsDouble
17 >   property is used to set the property. This avoids the specific example given above.

21   1. FBSQLData: ensure that TResults.getSQLData and TResults.GetData use same error
22     checks for range checking.
23  
24 + 2. FB25Client: In GetIBMessage, fb_interpret is now called multiple times such that
25 +   any additional error information is decoded.
26 +
27 + 3. FB25Statement: When changing a param type from Blob sub_type 1 to SQL_TEXT or SQL_VARYING
28 +   charsetid is now preserved and size is set to default blob size. Now aligns with
29 +   FB3 and later.
30 +
31 + 4. DDL and DML string literals are now explicitly set to the connection character
32 +   set rather than the default character set provided by the compiler.
33 +
34 + 5. General tidy up of transliteration functions, now centralised in IBUtils. FPC testing
35 +   now makes use of the RTL fpwidestring unit for support of international character
36 +   sets.
37 +
38 + 6. Database exception handling (see section 9.3 in user guide).
39 +    * For FB3 and later API: Connection Character set now applied to message returned
40 +      by fb_interpret and message then transliterated if necessary to the system character set.
41 +    * For Legacy API: The message character set is guessed as UTF8 unless invalid
42 +      UTF8 characters found when connection character set is assumed. Message then
43 +      transliterated if necessary to system character set.
44 +      Note: this difference of behaviour is because legacy API presents exception messages
45 +      "as is", while FB3 server attempts to transliterate to connection character set.
46 +
