Deprecated parameters
Pay attention, specially if you are using old IBO versions: Dmitry Yemanov posted in Firebird-Devel list that the OldParameterOrdering setting (found in Firebird.conf) will be removed from Firebird 2.5, and OldColumnNaming will be removed in FB 3.0. Both of them were introduced as temporary solutions to compatibility problems, to give time to developers solve the issues in their applications.
