Loading...Adriano Fernandes added new Window functions from the SQL:2008 standard
From twitter
I remember when I added the LOWER function to Firebird. I needed to grep (for nod_upper) and change dozens of files…
Now to add even a window function (which the framework is prepared to) it takes just a few localized changes http://bit.ly/uAt3ZP…
Now adding LAST_VALUE and NTH_VALUE.
You can read more about the list of window functions that are already implemented or needs to be implemented on the tracker
A short description of what these functions do :
first_value(value any) return value evaluated at the row that is the first row of the window frame
last_value(value any) returns value evaluated at the row that is the last row of the window frame
nth_value(value any, nth integer) returns value evaluated at the row that is the nth row of the window frame (counting from 1); null if no such row

The various command line manuals – gfix, gstat, gsec, gbak and fbmgr – have been updated to Firebird 2.5 specification. In the case of fbmgr it was only a few spelling mistakes that were corrected.
I’ve uploaded the html and pdf versions to the online repository. One thing I noticed when testing, the PDFs are ok but the HTML files seem to need a refresh on every page. Has anyone else noticed this when a new HTMl documents is uploaded?
Try hitting this link and see if you get the 11 October 2011 version:
If you don’t see 11 October 2011, click refresh. Now click on the link to go to Command Line Options. Under the password option do you see a fetch_password option? If not, click refresh.
I found this morning that I had to manually refresh every page in each of the updated manuals – which I’ve never had to do before.
Cheers,
