Also some cleanups, the most important are:
- meaningful ctor on Jrd::Lock, helping to avoid code dup
- avoid unneeded h-file dependencies, making boot build engine dependent
- Changed streams from UCHAR to ULONG as Dmitry wanted
- Got rid of some redundant flags to indicate BLR level
- Misc changes (for example, converted to test for DBB_read_only in Database to a function)
- BLR v6 is left commented (waiting for a better solution to appear, if any exists)
- This change is not going to raise the engine limits until a solution is found to express more than 255 streams in BLR.
Refactored the shared counter to support multiple number spaces.
Changed att_id and tra_id to be generated sequentially (without caching), as agreed with Vlad privately.
Fixed CORE-2305: Make mon$statement_id value constant among monitoring snapshots.
SUPERSERVER has 4 different meanings in our code:
- this is milticlient server (replaced with Config::getMultiClientServer())
- use shared data cache (replaced with Config::getSharedCache())
- use shared metadata cache (replaced with macro SHARED_METADATA_CACHE)
- database are NOT shared between processes (replaced with getSharedDatabase())
2. Use fb_smp_server as both superclassic and classic binary on posix
(xinetd autodecection is done).
3. Small posix build cleanup.
Use traditional firebird configuration files format in all places (intl, trace, etc.).
Add per-database configuration facility to aliases.conf (currently 15 parameters from firebird.conf).
- abandon page checksums and use page number for validation
- PIP have now pip_used field to track number of allocated pages
- two more flag bits per data page is now reserved on pointer page. One is for the swept flag and second is still not used but makes calculations easy
- misc changes
Don't forget to rebuild your DBs !
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
- Eliminate the useless bumped transaction
- Close the gaps in flags related to indices (btr_* in ods.h)
- Close the gaps in header page clumplets types (HDR_* in ods.h)
- Close the gaps in header page flags (hdr_* in ods.h)
Please do a full rebuild.
- 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.
