1. Never allocate empty statement - always use att->prepare() to create statement interface
2. Separated IStatement into 2 parts - statement itself and resultset.
3. Added stmt->openCursor() (and att->openCursor() for unprepared statements) to create IResultSet.
4. Always use IMessageMetadata (former IParametersMetadata) to pass message fromat info from client,
therefore avoiding need in BLR generation in client applications.
- Renamed CompiledStatement to DsqlCompilerScratch and removed inheritance to dsql_req.
- Introduced DsqlCompilerStatement, moving things from dsql_req - not completelly shareable yet.
- Make dsql_req reference a DsqlCompilerStatement. DsqlCompilerScratch may be discarded in the future.
- Replaced AlterCharSetNode usage by PreparedStatement for the default collation in database creation.
- Changed METD API.
2) Make exceptions in metadata charset and convert them to the client charset - this should fix CORE-2431
3) Support for "internal" (engine) DSQL statements and use in COMMENT ON
- Plugins API.
- Feature CORE-2700 - UDR (User Defined Routines) Engine - C++ API supporting functions, triggers and stored procedures.
- Feature CORE-2470 - Support for alternate format of strings literals.
- Feature CORE-2310 - DDL triggers.
- Feature CORE-2312 - PSQL Packages.
- Feature CORE-1209 - CONTINUE statement.
- Feature CORE-1180 - DDL syntax to change (not) nullable state of columns.
- Feature CORE-2090 - Support OVER () clause with current aggregate functions.
- Fixed CORE-2699 - Common table expression context could be used with parameters.
- Introduce ODS 12.0.
- Work in progress in type-safe parser.
- Refactor some DDL commands (procedures and triggers) from DYN to DdlNodes.
- Refactor virtual tables to use a class hierarchy instead of namespaces. This is basic thing, not based on the changes done in Vulcan. Window functions is based on this work.
- Refactor COMMENT ON and DROP FUNCTION from DYN to DdlNodes. COMMENT ON do not use GDML anymore, it uses DSQL with PreparedStatement class.
- Refactor EXECUTE BLOCK to StmtNodes.
- Refactor the IUDF to SysFunctions. That eliminates RDB$GET_CONTEXT and RDB$SET_CONTEXT from RDB$FUNCTIONS.
