IBProvider v1.6.2.199

• There is a BUG. CompareStringW was used to sort data of informative schemes. That function does not work (or not implemented?) in Win9x.
• Sorting of DBSCHEMA_COLUMNS was changed — Table name, Column order number.
• Implementation of IColumnsInfo2.
• Support of ODBC date,time,timestamp escape sequences in query text
  • Indentification of structure such as: {ts 'yyyy-mm-dd hh-mm-ss.ssss'} {d 'yyyy-mm-dd'} {t 'hh-mm-ss.ssss'}
  • Validation of parts of date and time on provider level.
  • Correction of the «Bug-2000» is equal to InterBase behavior.
  • New parameter of connection to DB «support_odbc_query» allowing that support. Analogous property was added into Rowset. By default this support is disabled from its specificity.

  In future support of ODBC queries will be wide more. In particular it will allow «Chrystal Report» use in full the OLE DB provider for InterBase.

• Informative property «Data Source Type» was added.
• Reorganization and addition of C++ library which IBProvider distributive kit furnished with were carried out.

Thanks to Sergey Wawin for his help in preparing of new version of IBProvider.
