Re: [Firebird-devel] ICU. VS2010 project files

I don't object to agreeing on a specific version of ICU for each release. We would just change the build script as required. (Presumably we will need .lib files.) Our main problem is likely to be finding icu binaries built with MSVC10. ICU 4.6 (more exactly icu4c 4.6 and latest 4.6.1) are built using MSVC10, so this is not an issue. BTW, we still have no MSVC10 at our build farm, but this is another question... Not much would change as far as packaging is concerned. We would just include the icu dlls as now, except their location at package time will / may be different. Of courses, we may get lucky and ibm will have upgraded their ridiculous icu build system and we could just incorporate it again into the windows build. However, if it hasn't been changed it would require a ton of work for each icu version, which is one of the reasons why we haven't upgraded icu. One note. Binary packages at IBM site http://download.icu-project.org/files/icu4c/4.6.1/icu4c-4_6_1-Win32-msvc10.zip http://download.icu-project.org/files/icu4c/4.6.1/icu4c-4_6_1-Win64-msvc10.zip contains relatively big ICU libraries. Size of 3 dll's needed for Firebird is more than 16MB, the biggest is icudt46.dll (14.4MB) which contains a lot of unused by FB data. Should i said that whole FB folder have similar size ? Here http://apps.icu-project.org/datacustom/ we can see what could be removed without any harm. We should decide (at least for Windows) a) will we provide ICU libraries - within our packages (as with FB2.x), or I vote for this one - ask users to download ICU from IBM site, or Asking users to download separate package is prone to errors : there will be a flood of questions : where do i download ... firebird doesn't work out of the box (matching icu versions hell) - provide separate package with just 3 DLL's we need it should be optional and for people who want slim firebird b) will we provide default (fat) ICU libraries or our customized (light) version ? Provide fat icu in first stage and if is requested make it light (hdd space/bandwidth is realy cheap these days) and doesn't worth to spend to much time in overoptimizing the used space Creating a light package is a good idea for embedders but that want to create small packages but that should be optional package -- WhatsUp Gold - Download Free Network Management Software The most intuitive, comprehensive, and cost-effective network management toolset available today.

While the new machine has much better CPU than the old one, I noticed the build being very slow where Firebird was creating databases. I found that mounting the ext4 partition with barrier=0 parameter decreased the performance from more than 2 minutes to less than 50s in the build. But changing this parameter seems to not make ext4 at least safe as ext3. So I reverted it and adjust the build to turn FW=off for the internal databases. That didn't become fast as barrier=0, but was acceptable (around 1 minute). Now I tried to run tcs and saw it's completely unpractical. So I started to test just create database performance. The numbers are around this: ntfs: 0.2s ext3 default (barrier=0): 0.1s ext3 (barrier=1): 0.8s ext4 default (barrier=1): 2.8s I removed the O_SYNC flag in posix.cpp and it makes ext4 similar to ext3.

[Firebird-devel] news from kernel 3.1
if you feel slow downs with database access (inserts) with the new kernel 3.1 and ext3 Filesystem barriers enabled by default in Ext3 http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_3.1 Hard disks have a memory buffer were they temporally store the instructions and data issued from the OS while the disk processes it. The internal software of modern disks changes the order of the instructions to improve performance, which means that instructions may or may not be committed to the disk in the same order the OS issued them. This breaks many of the assumptions that filesystems need to reliably implement things like journaling or COW, so disks provide a cache flush instruction that the OS uses when it needs it. In the Linux world, when a filesystem issues that instruction, it is called a barrier. Filesystems such as XFS, Btrfs and Ext4 already use and enable barriers by default; Ext3 supports them but until this release it did not enable them by default: while the data safety guarantees are higher, their performance impact in Ext3 is noticeable in many common workloads, and it considered that it was an unnaceptable performance regression to enable them by default. However, Linux distros like Red Hat have enabled barriers by default in Ext3 for a long time, and now the default for mainline has been changed aswell. In other words: if you use Ext3 and you note performance regressions with this release, try disabling barriers (barriers=0 mount option). -- The demand for IT networking professionals continues to grow, and the demand for specialized networking skills is growing even more rapidly.

I am planning on adding the newer protocol versions in Jaybird 2.3, but it will take time to get familiar with the wire protocol and its current implementation in Jaybird. What I have seen right now will probably mean that I will need to rewrite the implementation to better/easier accommodate multiple protocol versions. Then it will take more time to test the new implementation and to have users migrate to Jaybird 2.3. So they answer is less than 1.0 and you have my vote :) -- Ridiculously easy VDI.

[Firebird-devel] Design issue
This is not a bug in DBD::FIrebird, but a feature of the Firebird API. When fetching values after SELECT, the sqllen member of the SQLDA contains the maximum length in bytes. For CHAR(20) column, when using UTF8 connection charset, sqllen is 80, and there is no way for DBD::Firebird to determine that the column is really CHAR(20). My advise would be to use VARCHAR columns when the data is not guaranteed to fill the whole width. For VARCHAR the SQLDA contains the actual data length. My guess is that we need to close this bug https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=76506 -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

Re: [Firebird-devel] Firebird and Qt
I will check the driver i think is better if we contribute to the qt 5 tree also now you can send them patches directly to the gerrit There are articles about firebird embedded and qt but i guess you ask if we can put an firebird embedded plugin in the qt 5 tree right ? ps: some people used ibpp with qt but seems that fedora found it with some legal restrictions but if you agree with the lincense and want to bundle ibpp with your app then that is great https://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=29716631 from what i understand you can't make a separate ibpp lib for you app and put in the fedora repository you can bundle like in flamerobin case On Sun, Feb 10, 2013 at 5:06 PM, christian.waldm...@rte-ag.ch wrote: Hello Firebird team I am using Firebird since many years, and since some time also in combination with the Qt Framework.

The QIBASE plug in QT 4 uses the isc_ functions to access the fbclient. Is this still the suggested way?

When linux was changing from libstdc++.so.5 to libstdc++.so.6 it was very hard to provide single client library working in all distros - some requied .5, other .6. Therefore as a compromise static c++ support was used. In FB3 libfbclient is using dynamic c++ cause it's not standalone library any more - it's loading various plugins, and keeping static c++ support in it makes absolutely no sense any more. -- CenturyLink Cloud: The Leader in Enterprise Cloud Services.

[Firebird-devel] LibreOffice 4.2 released with New Preview Feature : Firebird SQL backend
New feature preview feature in LibreOffice 4.2 : Firebird SQL connector for LibreOffice Base (Andrzej Hunt). When creating a new Database, select Firebird Embedded in the drop down menu (you have to first enable the Experimental features in Tools ▸Options ▸ LibreOffice ▸ Advanced). This allows creation of databases that performmany times faster than the previous built-in HSQLDB 1.8, avoiding the C++-to-Java overhead inherent in using HSQLDB. We plan to phase HSQLDB out over the next few releases, and provide a smooth migration path to Firebird. https://www.libreoffice.org/download/4-2-new-features-and-fixes/ -- WatchGuard Dimension instantly turns raw network data into actionable security intelligence.
