3	>	1. Imported (Firebird) constants updated for Firebird 4.
4	>
5	>	2. Firebird.pas from Firebird 4 integrated into source code tree.
6	>
7	>	3. Added Support for TIMETAMP WITH TIME ZONE and TIME WITH TIME ZONE data types.
8	>
9	>	4. Added Support for SQL_DEC16, SQL_DEC34 and extended NUMERIC precision.
10	>
11	>	5. New unit 'FBClientLib.pas' added and provides new interface IFBIMasterProvider.
12	>	QueryInterface may be used to coerce this interface from IFirebirdAPI. The
13	>	interface provides a single method "function GetIMasterIntf: IMaster". This provides
14	>	type safe access to the Firebird IMaster interface and avoids the need to turn
15	>	off object checks when coercing "function GetIMaster: TObject" to IMaster.
16	>
17	>	6. New IFirebirdAPI Calls:
18	>	function HasLocalTZDB: boolean;
19	>	function HasTimeZoneSupport: boolean;
20	>	function HasExtendedTZSupport: boolean;
21	>	procedure SQLDecFloatEncode(aValue: tBCD; SQLType: cardinal; bufptr: PByte);
22	>	function SQLDecFloatDecode(SQLType: cardinal; scale: integer; bufptr: PByte): tBCD;
23	>
24	>	7. New IAttachment Calls:
25	>	function HasDecFloatSupport: boolean;
26	>	function GetTimeZoneServices: ITimeZoneServices;
27	>	function HasTimeZoneSupport: boolean;
28	>
29	>	8. New Interface ITimeZoneServices.
30	>
31	>	9. New ISQLData API Calls:
32	>	procedure GetAsDateTime(var aDateTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezoneID: TFBTimeZoneID); overload;
33	>	procedure GetAsDateTime(var aDateTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezone: AnsiString); overload;
34	>	procedure GetAsTime(var aTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezoneID: TFBTimeZoneID; OnDate: TDateTime); overload;
35	>	procedure GetAsTime(var aTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezone: AnsiString; OnDate: TDateTime); overload;
36	>	function GetAsUTCDateTime: TDateTime;
37	>	function GetAsBCD: tBCD;
38	>
39	>	10. New ISQLParam API Calls
40	>	procedure GetAsDateTime(var aDateTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezoneID: TFBTimeZoneID); overload;
41	>	procedure GetAsDateTime(var aDateTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezone: AnsiString); overload;
42	>	procedure GetAsTime(var aTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezoneID: TFBTimeZoneID; OnDate: TDateTime); overload;
43	>	procedure GetAsTime(var aTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezone: AnsiString; OnDate: TDateTime); overload;
44	>	function GetAsUTCDateTime: TDateTime;
45	>	function GetAsBCD: tBCD;
46	>	function GetStatement: IStatement;
47	>	function GetTransaction: ITransaction;
48	>	procedure SetAsTime(aValue: TDateTime; OnDate: TDateTime; aTimeZoneID: TFBTimeZoneID); overload;
49	>	procedure SetAsTime(aValue: TDateTime; OnDate: TDateTime; aTimeZone: AnsiString); overload;
50	>	procedure SetAsDateTime(aValue: TDateTime; aTimeZoneID: TFBTimeZoneID); overload;
51	>	procedure SetAsDateTime(aValue: TDateTime; aTimeZone: AnsiString); overload;
52	>	procedure SetAsUTCDateTime(aUTCTime: TDateTime);
53	>	procedure SetAsBcd(aValue: tBCD);
54	>
55	>	11. New IArray API Calls
56	>	procedure GetAsDateTime(index: array of integer; var aDateTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezoneID: TFBTimeZoneID); overload;
57	>	procedure GetAsDateTime(index: array of integer; var aDateTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezone: AnsiString); overload;
58	>	procedure GetAsTime(index: array of integer; var aTime: TDateTime; var dstOffset: smallint; var aTimezoneID: TFBTimeZoneID; OnDate: TDateTime); overload;

75	>	13. IDPB, ITPB and ISPB: new interface method
76	>	function AddByTypeName(ParamTypeName: AnsiString): IDPBItem/ITPBItem/ISPBItem;
77	>	This is used to add a parameter block item by the string equivalent of its
78	>	symbolic type name. e.g. DPB.AddByTypeName('isc_dpb_user_name').AsString := '...'
79	>
80	>	14. IDPBItem/ITPBItem/ISPBItem: new interface method:
81	>	function getParamTypeName: AnsiString;
82	>
83	>	15. fb_shutdown now called before unloading Firebird library. This can avoid a
84	>	SIGEVENT error when a programme using the embeded server is unloaded.
85	>

87	>
88	>	1. GetImplementationVersion now correctly returns '3.0' for Firebird 3 API
89	>	with a Firebrid 3 client library.
90	>
91	>	2. Linux Only: FIREBIRD environment variable is now checked when loading the client library.
92	>	If a client library path is not explicitly provided and the FIREBIRD environment
93	>	variable is set then the directory given by this variable and any 'lib' subdirectory
94	>	are searched for the Firebird client library. Only if none is found, is the default
95	>	client library used.
96	>
97	>	3.  IUtil.FormatStatus now used to format error messages when using new API
98	>
99	>	4.  Fixed Array SDL: array_desc_scale now correctly encoded as a signed integer.
100	>
101	>	5.  SQL_TEXT handling changed. When the value of an SQL_TEXT (i.e. fixed width string) column is
102	>	returned using GetAsString and the string codepage is UTF8, the string is truncated so
103	>	that the byte length corresponds to the number of characters specified for the column.
104	>	SQL_TEXT strings are no longer automatically trimmed to remove all trailing white space. This is
105	>	correct behaviour but may affect some implementations that relied upon automatic
106	>	trimming of trailing white space.
107	>
108	>	6.  New IFirebirdAPI Calls:
109	>	function GetClientMajor: integer;
110	>	function GetClientMinor: integer;
111	>
112	>	7.  IColumnMetaData and IArrayMetaData: new method
113	>	function GetCharSetWidth: integer;
114	>
115	>	FBINTF Change Log  version          (1.1-5 Build 12022) Fri, 17 Apr 2020 10:35:55 +0100
116	>
117	>	1. ISQLParams.GetHasCaseSensitiveParams added. Returns true if param names are
118	>	case sensitive
119	>
120	>	2. Single line SQL comments starting with '--' are now recognised by SQL Parser.
121	>
122	>	3. New API Calls:
123	>	IColumnMetaData.GetStatement
124	>	IColumnMetaData.GetTransaction
125	>	ISQLData.GetStrDataLength
126	>	IResults.GetStatement
127	>	IAttachment.OpenBlob (using Blob metadata)
128	>	IAttachment.OpenArray (using array metadata)
129	>
130	>	4. FBMessages: removal of unused messages
131	>
132	>	5. TFBArray.Create (2nd case): ensure that FFirebirdClientAPI is correctly set.
133	>
134	>	6. TIBSQLStatementType: SQLSavePoint added to end of enumeration.
135	>
136	>	FBINTF Change Log  version          (1.1-4 Build 11515)  Fri, 28 Dec 2018 10:04:19 +0000
