Problem: A listing of API calls and constants in the InterBase v3.3 Master Index and their InterBase v4.x counterparts Solution: Relevant Platforms: ------------------------------- InterBase for UNIX (all ports) version 4.0 and higher InterBase for Windows NT/Windows95 version 4.0 and higher Local InterBase v4.0 and higher Note: Some compilers on some platforms do not support the "$" character as a part of the name of identifiers (i.e. Windows NT and Windows95). As a result the string "gds_$" that is the beginning portion of the name of API calls and constants on some platforms is the same as "gds__" on other platforms that do not support "$" symbols as part of the names of identifiers. InterBase v3.3 InterBase 4.0 Master Index Listing: Counterpart: --------------------- ------------ gds_$create_blob() isc_create_blob(), Not Documented gds_$create_database() isc_create_database(), Not Documented gds_$event_wait() isc_wait_for_event() gds_$open_blob() isc_open_blob(), Not Documented gds_$quad isc_quad gds_$reconnect_transaction isc_reconnect_transaction, Not Documented gds_$tpb_lock_level This structure is now broken out as separate variables: isc_tpb_lock_write or isc_tpb_lock_read and isc_tbp_shared or isc_tpb_protected or isc_tpb_exclusive isc_tpb_exclusive is not documented Also, the gds_$events API call or constant is mentioned in the Master Index of the InterBase v3.3 documentation but is not mentioned elsewhere in the documentation.
