1 + FBINTF Change Log  version          (1.1-5 Build 12034) Fri, 17 Apr 2020 12:28:42 +0100
2 +
3 + 1. ISQLParams.GetHasCaseSensitiveParams added. Returns true if param names are
4 +   case sensitive
5 +
6 + 2. Single line SQL comments starting with '--' are now recognised by SQL Parser.
7 +
8 + 3. New API Calls:
9 +        IColumnMetaData.GetStatement
10 +        IColumnMetaData.GetTransaction
11 +        ISQLData.GetStrLength
12 +        IResults.GetStatement
13 +        IAttachment.OpenBlob (using Blob metadata)
14 +        IAttachment.OpenArray (using array metadata)
15 +
16 + 4. FBMessages: removal of unused messages
17 +
18 + 5. TFBArray.Create (2nd case): ensure that FFirebirdClientAPI is correctly set.
19 +
20 + 6. TIBSQLStatementType: SQLSavePoint added to end of enumeration.
21 +
22 + FBINTF Change Log  version          (1.1-4 Build 11515)  Fri, 28 Dec 2018 10:04:19 +0000
23 +
24 + 1. Fix a problem with the SQL parameter parser that failed to recognise parameters
25 +   where the second character of the parameter name is a numeric.
26 +
27 + 2. New method for IAttachment: procedure getFBVersion(version: TStrings);
28 +   This returns the isc_version connection information as one or more lines.
29 +   This is the same information as returned by isql with the -z option.
30 +
31 + 3. If -dFIREBIRD3APIONLY is used as a compiler option then the legacy Firebird API
32 +   is no longer compiled in. Likewise, if -dLEGACYFIREBIRDAPIONLY is used as a
33 +   compiler option then the Firebird 3 API is no longer compiled in.
34 +
35 + 4. IColumnMetaData: new method.
36 +
37 +   TIBDateTimeFormats = (dfTimestamp, {SQL TIMESTAMP}
38 +                        dfDateTime,   {SQL DATETIME}
39 +                        dfTime);
40 +
41 +   function GetDateTimeStrLength(DateTimeFormat: TIBDateTimeFormats): integer;
42 +
43 +   This returns the max. number of characters returned by the "AsString" method
44 +   when the SQL type of the column is respectively TIMESTAMP, DATETIME or TIME.
45 +
46 + 5. Additional argument for IAttachment.PrepareWithNamedParameters -
47 +     CaseSensitiveParams: boolean = false
48 +
49 +   If this argument is set to true then SQL parameter names are assumed to be case
50 +   sensitive and must be referenced (using ISQLParams.ByName) using the case
51 +   sensitive name.
52 +
53 + 6. Bug fix: when setting a query parameter, it is now possible, when the parameter
54 +   is of type VarChar or Char to set the parameter to a numeric value (e.g. using
55 +   .AsCurrency) and then subsequently to update the value to a non-numeric string
56 +   using .AsString.

60 + FBINTF Change Log  version                  (1.1-3) Wed, 05 Dec 2018 14:28:10 +0000
61 +
62 + 1. DARWIN only syntax error: fix missing semi-colon in TFBClientAPI.LoadIBLibrary
63 +
64 + 2. Restrict IsMultiThread check to Unix only for compatibility with
65 +   https://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=30535
66 +
67 + 3. New SQL Tokeniser added to IBUtils. This is used to pre-process SQL with
68 +   named parameters and is intended to avoid problems with (e.g.) Execute Block
69 +   and processing internal parameters as statement parameters.
70 +
71 + 4. New interface IFirebirdLibrary provides access to the underlying firebird DLL
72 +   or shared object. Available via a new member (GetFBLibrary) of IFirebirdAPI.
73 +
74 + 5. New function added to IB.pas
75 +
76 +   function LoadFBLibrary(aLibPathName: string): IFirebirdLibrary
77 +
78 +   This allows a Firebird Library to be loaded from an explicit path. use the
79 +   IFirebirdLibrary.GetFirebirdAPI member function to get the Firebird API using
80 +   the library. It is possible to load Firebird libraries from different locations
81 +   simultaneously, each with a distinct IFirebirdAPI.
82 +
