At the top of the list there is to make FreeAdhocUDF compatible (min.
input-/output compatible) with many other UDFs so you need only one UDF
libary. For this we work on a list to compare
UDFs and see
what exists - ib_udf from Borland /
CodeGear
- fbudf from FireBird
- GrUDF
from Torsten Grundke and Gerd Kroll
- udflib from
Mer Systems (commercial / free)
- last version 2000-03-13
- FUDLib from Deebee
Solutions Ltd
(free clone of the udflib) - last version 2000-08-20
- rfunc from Polaris Software - last
version 2003-11-27
- SR-UDF from
SRMaster.com (commercial / free)
-last version 2006-05-08
- TBUDF from
Tecnobyte - last version
2002-11-14 ?
- xLibUDF from SoftLab
- last version
? (bevore
IB5.6)
- ...
For next (or next but one)
version we
think about - to
make F_UUID1TIMESTAMP and
F_UUID1COMPRTIMESTAMP threat-safe also in windows
- for
this we must change the compiler
- to
read also the variant - and not only the version -
of the UUID in F_UUIDVERSION
- adapt
<null> return for the missing
BLOb-functions
- F_SH1 - enryption
similar to MD5
Idears for new
kinds of functions - GeoDB
- rund um Entfernungsberechnungen zwischen zwei
geographischen Koordinaten
- Oracle2FireBird -
adapt special/dayly used
Oracle-functions to FireBird/InterBase
- all around
check-numbers (f.e. to check a correctg
input)
- encryption
- regex functions (POSIX)
- NVL-family
contributes
as ideas or code (Delphi, C ...) are welcome!
There is NO date for a new release! There is NO garanty for releasing
... even you ... Possibility
to write an urgend used function for you - You need a new
function?
- You
can't wait?
- Speak
to us: We give you an offer to realize the UDFs immediately!
- You want to use
the FreeAdhocUDF on a not testet OS?
- Speak
to us: We give you an offer to compile and test for you!
All made functions on the above way are published for the
community in
the next edition. |
