Problem: New versions of InterBase introduce new functionality, however much of this functionality is implemented in the ODS structure. What new functionality is introduced in the new ODS versions? Solution: NOTE: ODS minor versions -- minor versions ARE compatible, but may be increasingly functional. ODS version 6 ------------- ODS version 6.1 - adds fields for field level grant ODS version 6.2 - adds fields for referential integrity ODS version 6.3 - modifies type of RDB$MODULE_NAME field ODS version 6.4 - permits SQL security on > 27 SCHAR names ODS version 7 ------------- ODS version 7.1 - modifies type of RDB$MODULE_NAME field ODS version 7.2 - permits SQL security on > 27 SCHAR names ODS version 8 ------------- ODS version 8.1 - permits cascading referential integrity ODS version 8.2 - the same as ODS 8.1 ODS version 9 ------------- ODS version 9.0 - SQL roles & Index garbage collection ODS version 9.1 - Index on RDB$CHECK_CONSTRAINTS (RDB$TRIGGER_NAME) ODS version 10 -------------- ODS version 10.0 - SQL delimited identifier, SQLDATE, and 64-bit exact numeric type
