Flamerobin 0.9.13 Snapshot released with a few features and fixes .

MWA Software is pleased to announce the release of version 2.7.0 of IBX for Lazarus. This is primarily a maintenance release but does contain some important future proofing. All users are recommended to upgrade to this version.

In this release:

• Firebird 5 compatibility checked
• Lazarus 3.4 compatibility checked
• Internal changes necessary to correctly function with FPC 3.3.1 (development version) and later.
• Dynamic Database Controls Direct Dependency on IBX  removed and replaced with corba interfaces.
• Various bug fixes – see changelogs of IBX and the Firebird Pascal Interface for details.

The changes to the Dynamic Database Controls are intended to enable their use with database drivers other than IBX. Other developers are encourage to support the corba interfaces defined in their support so that their full functionality is available generally. See the new document “DynamicDatabaseControls.pdf” for further information.
