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
