Firebird Eclipse DTP Plugin Version 1.0.2 released
This is a Bugfix version and can be downloaded from here http://www.lawinegevaar.nl/firebird
Fixes:
- Loading of multi-action triggers
- Column loading for tables containing blobs
- Loading of constraints
- Loading of index columns
- Order of indices in DDL generation
- Linebreaks in DDL stored procedures and triggers
- DDL generation for sequences
- Leave delegation to plugin config, don’t hardcode
Gotcha’s:
- Largely untested (only minor testing done under Eclipse 3.5.2 with DTP 1.7.2 and Eclipse 3.6.2 with DTP 1.8.2)
Who is using Firebird and #Debian Humanistisch Instituut voor Ontwikkelingssamenwerking
The organisation uses Debian GNU/Linux on half of their servers, i.e. about 10 systems.
It is used for two web servers, for the mail server and on a system for project administration, running a Firebird database. Debian was chosen since it’s the ultimate form of Open Source, and reliable as well. Since Hivos works for creating a better world, fights poverty and uses No Borders for People
as its motto, choosing Debian is natural.
Jiří Činčura Blogged: Tokenize string in SQL (Firebird syntax)
Few days ago I wrote “Some thoughts on denormalization” post. Though concatenating data to one string is easy with there introduced function, splitting it back could be harder. I left it as exercise, but I feel, to make it complete, it’s good to show one possible implementation.
Here’s one I came with today (using Firebird syntax, however it’s almost pure SQL), quickly. It’s something I created from start to finish in one row and sure for some cases it could be optimized.
Firebird and booleans in #Delphi + DBX one more hurdle : writing back
I wrote my last post about enabling booleans in Firebird after several hours of poking around in database code trying to get my query to execute without errors. Once it worked, everything seemed great. But I missed an important step: I hadn’t tried to write anything back to the database yet.
Tweet and user of the day : To convert a database from MS SQL to Firebird, we need test the abstraction layer.
The best tweet for today is one from EricMan:

Creating access control into Lazarus + Firebird applications
This is a getting started article (written in Portuguese) from a series of articles related to Firebird and Lazarus
In the first part it’s explained how to install Lazarus and Firebird/Flamerobin on Ubuntu
I have been implementing the access control on my applications. It is a simple model, I have been “improving” since I started the program and always adapting to the new reality that has been presented. Not the last word on programming, but I believe it can be a good start for those who want to implement something from scratch.
