The second generation IBProvider

The work on the realization of the new version of IBProvider v2, which allows the qualitatively new level of control of the information of the InterBase database at the level of applied software, is completed.

What's new?

  • Valuable support of the updatable row sets with the support of the immediate and delayed transmission of changes in the database.
  • Use of a local storage on the base of file with the page structure.
  • Valuable support of update of all InterBase data types at the local level, including arrays, BLOB and NUMERIC.
  • Qualitative control of the delayed changes. The order of record into the database remains.
  • The automatic mode of the generation of SQL queries for the record of changes in database. The possibility of the indication of the rules of the generation of keys and hints, which decrease the data volume, passed on the server of the databases is given.
  • The controlled mode of the record of changes with the use of SQL-queries defined by a user. You can operate with OLD and NEW values, and also use rules GEN, GEN_N, GEN_NI for the automatic key generation.
  • The customized pool of SQL-queries makes it possible to optimize the process of the record of changes in the automatic and controlled modes.
  • Possibility of the record of data changes in the separate short transaction.
  • Disconnected row set mode.
  • 31 errors are corrected.
  • Total control in the form of the automated testing of the new and previously realized functionality is used.
  • New registration name and name of the provider file is changed for LCPI.IBProvider.2 and _IBProvider_v2.dll respectively to avoid conflicts with the foregoing versions.
  • Documentation is updated and the more detailed description of the row set control mechanisms is added.
  • New examples for ADO and C++ library.

Previous version

For reductions of problems with moving to the IBProvider v2, the version 1.7.12 with the corrections of all the revealed errors is included into the distributive set.

Trial version

As usual we give you for testing a version, which has limits on the time of the usage and some other insignificant limits. The principal limit is a technological code, which essentially increases the size of the module, reduces productivity and can cause the terminating of the program in case of critical error.
