What is a port?
A port is the term used to describe a collection of files which makes it extremely easy to install an application. As it says in the FreeBSD Ports description: Installing an application is as simple as downloading the port, unpacking it and typing make in the port directory.

Query cancelation
Implementation of the statement cancellation feature has been committed into the version 2.1. It works via the monitoring tables – you just need to issue the DELETE command against the MON$STATEMENTS table (there’s no API implementation yet). It could be done by the application itself (using a secondary attachment) or by a server administrator. Examples:
DELETE FROM MON$STATEMENTS
WHERE MON$STATEMENT_ID = ?
or
DELETE FROM MON$STATEMENTS
WHERE MON$ATTACHMENT_ID = ? AND MON$STATEMENT_STATE = 1 -- active
The feature works for both SS and CS engines. The client application receives the GDS error code isc_cancelled.
Trusted authentication on Windows
Ability to authenticate Firebird users through a Windows domain is now available in the source tree and will be included into the v2.1 release. An up-to-date client library is required in order to use this feature. CURRENT_USER represents a logged in Windows domain user in this case. It’s expected that firebird.conf will introduce an option allowing you to choose between native-only, trusted-only and mixed authentication modes.
