Firebird External Table Generator (ext-table-gen) 3.0 released

I am happy to announce the release of version 3.0 of “Firebird External Table Generator” (ext-table-gen for short).

“Firebird External Table Generator” is a commandline tool to transform CSV files to Firebird external table files (a binary format for external table data).

Compared to version 2.0, we added support for more datatypes:

• Approximate numeric types (binary floating point)
  • float
  • doublePrecision
• Decimal floating point type:
  • decfloat
• String types
  • varchar

ext-table-gen 3.0 requires Java 21 or higher.

You can find the 3.0 release at ext-table-gen v3.0.
