Digest of IBProvider v3.17.2-v3.18.2

Hello!

We have released a set of IBProvider updates with optimizations and corrections.

For example – we rewrote the support of “array” data type. Now we can (reservedly) say that IBProvider really can work with all server data types. With minimal numbers of “buts”…

Common list of changes

  • Optimizing server resource management.
  • Revision of work with XSQLVAR::sqlind.
  • Improved work with InterBase v12 (XE7).
  • Added initialization property «dbdate_rules».
  • Updated list with reserved keywords of Firebird v3.
  • New support for «array» data type.
  • Improved cancelation of fetch operation (fb.direct mode).
  • Correction of creation binary blob with zero length.
  • Correction of error with MSSQL Linked Server and BLOB.

Also

  • Updated support of IBProvider in our ADO.NET provider.

GSOC 2016 Finish Firebird Libreoffice driver integration

There is a medium difficulty task for a c++ programmer in current GSOC 2016

The Firebird driver for LibreOffice was started, and is mostly functional, in a previous GSoC, but it needs finishing and polishing. The main remaining issue is that the firebird data format embedded in the .odb file is endianess-dependent. The idea is to switch to Firebird’s “archive” format that is not.

Required skills / knowledge
C++, SQL, Reading other’s code, capacity to work autonomously.
Difficulty
medium
Potential mentors
