[Firebird-docs] Firebird 3 Quick Start Guide
Hi all, The Firebird 3 Quick Start Guide is available at: http://www.firebirdsql.org/file/documentation/reference_manuals/user_manuals/Firebird-3-QuickStart.pdf http://www.firebirdsql.org/file/documentation/reference_manuals/user_manuals/html/qsg3.html It's not yet visible at the index page, because FB3 hasn't been released yet. There are probably still some rough edges to the guide, but I couldn't wait any longer: the first packages may be built today. If you find any errors, please let us know.

Hope it goes well for you Aage! I'm not ignoring your suggestions, just a bit swamped at the moment with customer work and Fb 3 release. Thanks again!

[Firebird-docs] LangRef 2.5beta1 - a few more suggestions /5
I'll have mostly non-Firebird things on my mind the next week, so I'm just unloading my latest comments now! == p.117 Add a sentence to make it clear when the trigger is fired: For mutation events, does the trigger fire at commit or at individual insert/update/delete. For two-phase-commit, it is described at p.122 (good!). p.119: "Declarations and embedded statements are terminated with semi-colons (;)." For statements with a begin...end block, no semi-colon is used. Simple "if": BEGIN IF (NEW.cust_no IS NULL) THEN NEW.cust_no = GEN_ID(cust_no_gen, 1); END But, with a block of statements: BEGIN IF (NEW.cust_no IS NULL) THEN BEGIN NEW.cust_no = GEN_ID(cust_no_gen, 1); END END p.248 reveals that "The BEGIN and END statements have no line terminators." This explains it, but: a) This is a trap for new users - please make a note around p.119 (about semi-colons). b) "line terminators"? "statement terminator" seems better. And "embedded statements" - are these just ordinary statements in the trigger? p.124 ALTER TRIGGER set_cust_no INACTIVE; Does this have immediate effect, even without a commit? If a user inactivates a trigger, does something and then activates the trigger - what is the effect for users (in the inactive periode)? And, is it really inactive (without a commit)? I believe there has been some confused/confusing discussions on the support list in the past on whether a user can have a trigger de-activated just for himself. (He cannot, IIRC) == -- Aage J. -- Find and fix application performance issues faster with Applications Manager Applications Manager provides deep performance insights into multiple tiers of your business applications.
