Using the Firebird 3.0 API with Delphi

Pierre Yager announced on firebird-devel new version of UIB with Firebird 3.0 API support:

Thanks to Vlad, we achieved the translation of the FB3 OO API in UIB
Components for Delphi.

You can checkout the code from SourceForge repository :

https://uib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/uib/trunk

Now, we only miss hints to deal with FbMessage, it seems that the
examples (fbstuff on github) made by Adriano heavily relies on BOOST
and as we don’t have such possibilities with Delphi we must understand
what is exactly an FbMessage and see what we can do.

Thanks for your help, regards,

Faghmie Davids contributed his patches to firebird provider for gnome db

Here is my patch file so far for the firebird provider.[Ed:For gnome db]

It only run select statements. Your feedback and guidance will be appreciated.

There is still quite a bit missing, but at least I can now select data from a firebird database . Please note that it does not do the input,parameters for statements…..mainly cause I never use it

If there is some interest I’ll work some more on it
