I can agree about 99% of non-Windows cases, but on Windows it is wrong
assumption.
I mean 99% of people has 0% necessity of not deploy ICU DLLs with their
clients.
Ok, understand.
I could agree with above, if you wrote "...0% necessity of deploy ICU..." :)
And Firebird in Windows comes with that DLLs.
It have nothing common with what people deploy with own applications
(hint: fbclient.dll only).
Many of people may really not know they could be needed in the client,
but as soon a non-default setting is used and they have an error
explaining that, they will know and deploy or will avoid the setting.
Correct me if I'm wrong: when client config is present and contains
non-commented out setting DefaultTimeZone
- with some value, other than "Auto"
such value is passed via DPB and validated on server, using server-side ICU
- with value "Auto"
fbclient asks ICU about local client time zone name and put it into DPB,
if ICU is not found - error is raised (with some explanation, not just OS
error)
If there is no client config or DefaultTimeZone is not set, nothing is added
into DPB.
Correct ?
