1 FBINTF Change Log version (1.1-1) Tue, 16 Jan 2018 16:49:37 +0000
2
3 1. IBUtils.QuoteIdentifierIfNeeded: Add check for space character.
4
5 2. IAttachment: add two new methods
6 function HasDefaultCharSet: boolean;
7 function GetDefaultCharSetID: integer;
8
9 These return, respectively, true if a connection default character set was
10 specified and the character set id of the connection defautl character set.
11
12 3. Avoid exception when a text blob is a stored procedure parameter.
13
14 4. Update test suite to include a test for a stored proc returning a text blob.

16 FBINTF Change Log version (1.1-0) Sun, 07 Jan 2018 15:20:02 +0000
17
18 1. Fix issues with setting SQL Param values using SetAsString with Numeric types.
19 Scale is no longer ignored.
20
21 2. Fix issues with setting SQL Param values using SetAsString with Date values
22 not in locale format but which are recognised by Firebird. Date values that
23 cannot be converted to a string using Pascal library are now passed through
24 to Firebird as Text Strings.
25
26 3. Lookup character set name by codepage amended to ensure that CP_UTF8 returns
27 UTF8 and not UNICODE_FSS.
28
29 4. Charset ID problem. When using Firebird 3, with no default database character set
30 and a column has a non-default collation specified, an incorrect character set
31 id was being reported that could result in a 'division by zero' error when
32 used by IBX. This has now been fixed.
33
34 5. Move GetCharsetName, CharSetID2CodePage, CodePage2CharSetID, CharSetName2CharSetID,
35 CharSetWidth from IFirebirdAPI to IAttachment. This is a better data model as
36 the character sets supported can be updated on a per database basis. That is
37 it is possible to add a (Firebird) user defined character set to a database.
38
39 6. Add RegisterCharSet to IAttachment. This is used to register a user defined character
40 set supported by Firebird with the API.
41
42 7. Add missing isc_info_db_read_only to list of decoded Database Information items
43 in FBOutputBlock.pas and update test suite to include this item.
44
45 8. FB30Client: avoid always using "StartMultiple" when only a single database attachment.
46
47 9. Loading Windows fbclient.dll: when using the FIREBIRD variable to locate the client
48 library or finding it by disk location, the PATH environment variable is now also set to
49 include the FIREBIRD directory. This is to ensure that the correct dlls in the
50 firebird client library dependencies are loaded.
51
52 10. Testsuite: Ensure consistent UTF-8 output on Windows console.
53
54 11. Testsuite: Update Windows script to include FPC 3.0.4 in search path.
55
56 12. FB30Statement: Protect call to "Move" and avoid calling with a nil pointer
57
58 13. FB30Statement: A check has been added to ensure that all SQL Parameters
59 have been given a value (including NULL). Previously, failing to set the
60 value of an SQL Parameter could give rise to unpredictable results or
61 an SQLDA error.
62
63 14. FB30Statement/FB25Statement: Set SQLParam "modified" when string value set.
64
65 15. FBAttachment: Avoid string reference count error when processing an Ansistring
66 parameter in an array of const passed to IAttachment.OpenCursor, etc.
67
68 16. FBAttachment: Allow for WideString and UnicodeString parameters in an array
69 of const passed to IAttachment.OpenCursor, etc.

72 FBINTF Change Log version (1.0-2) Sat, 04 Mar 2017 14:43:56 +0000
73
74 1. Change syntax to Mode Delphi
75
76 2. Change all uses of string type to explicit AnsiString in order to ensure
77 compatibility between Delphi and FPC.
78
79 3. Various syntax changes to ensure Delphi and FPC compilation including GUIDs
80 defined for each interface.
81
82 4. Generics syntax variations for Delphi added
83
84 5. PChar replaced with PByte expect where an actual string is being referenced,
85 where PAnsiChar is used instead.
86
87 6. Review of type definitions in IBExternals to ensure Delphi compatibility
88
89 7. Testsuite updated for Delphi
90
91 FBINTF Change Log version (1.0-1) Fri, 24 Feb 2017 12:17:57 +0000
92
93 1. Limit maximum Blob segment read/write to MaxuShort. Avoids data loss with
94 large blobs and the FB3 API.
95
96 2. Update Event Handling algorithm to avoid looping due to recreation of the
97 event block.
98
99 3. Avoid invalid XSQLDA error when the only parameter is updated to null
100
101 4. Array Handling: fix problem with text arrays with character set none. When the
102 DB connection has a default character set (e.g. UTF8), an error is raised by
103 Firebird if the space allocated is not enough to allow for transliteration, even
104 though it is not required for character set none.
105
106 5. IBUtils: List of reserved words brought up-to-date
107
108 6. Add ISQL style performance statistics collection to IStatement
109
110 7. Add IFirebirdAPI.CreateDatabase variant to allow execution of user provided
111 CREATE DATABASE statement.
112
113 8. Update SQL Statement parsing to allow for Array Dimensions. That is so that the ':' in
114 an array dimension is not mistaken for a named parameter prefix.
115
116 9. Trim function no longer applied to result of GetAsString for SQL_TEXT
117 when Character set is octets. Avoids loss of non printable characters at start of string.
118
119 10. Add function GetPerfStatistics to IStatement. This returns ISQL like performance
120 statistics for the last action. Requires use of procedure IStatement.EnableStatistics
121 to enable stats gathering.
122
123 11. API Version information added as constants to IB.pas
124
125 12. BlobMetaData character set id should now be the same as that given by IColumnMetaData.GetCharSetID
126
127 13. Firebird Character set "NONE" now interpreted as codepage CP_ACP.
