user definable function. The ability to do something like:
select myfunc(username) from users
where myfunc is in a delphi DLL, something like:
function myfunc(const in : string) : string;
begin
result := uppercase(in);
end;
Quite handy for extending IB, tho they ARE platform dependant - develope them
on NT, you can't use it on Linux (tho you can recomple them), logically enough.
