[firebird-support] GUI version of FB Trace Manager (fbtracemgr)
Hello list! I have implemented a very simple GUI version of the bundled trace tool fbtracemgr using wxWidgets. If anyone is interested I am more than happy to upload or send them the code. If I get the chance I will try to write a blog because some aspects of the trace API take a bit of digging to find the documentation ;) The only problem that I have at the moment is that I am using the isc_info_svc_timeout command as part of a isc_info_svc_line isc_service_query() but instead of replying with isc_info_svc_timeout in the header the server replies with isc_info_svc_line but a zero length data block. I looked through the source of fbtracemgr and although I think it expects isc_info_svc_timeout it probably doesn't give an error if it doesn't get it. It isn't particularly important because I can just detect 0 length lines (for a normal response even an empty line provides a '\n') but I wondered if anyone has any ideas about this?

In version 2.1 of FireBird the command fbmgr was used to stop and restart Firebird. In Firebird 2.5.2 command no longer exists fbmgr.bin Did you see this [1] my response to your first post on this topic? 1. http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/firebird-support/message/121289

I developed it with ADO + OLE DB (IB OLEDB - v2.0.0207 provider). All works fine until to execute a INSERT instruction. The error is CHARACTER SET DOS850 is not installed. The folder INTL exists and the DOS850 constant there is. The ambient: win 7 64 bits (syswow64). What I do? Help, please. please put the intl folder in the execution dir also you might try to find where the intl folder is searched (by the ole driver) with a file monitoring like utility http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645 also i guess firebird is 32bit version right ?

The only problem that I have at the moment is that I am using the isc_info_svc_timeout command as part of a isc_info_svc_line isc_service_query() but instead of replying with isc_info_svc_timeout in the header the server replies with isc_info_svc_line but a zero length data block. IIRC, isc_info_svc_line (or isc_info_svc_to_eof) + zero data length means end of stream and service was stopped at server side. This might be my misunderstanding of the service was stopped at the server side but after receiving isc_info_svc_line + 0 I continue to receive isc_info_svc_line + valid data as soon some traceable event occurs so I don't think it has stopped? Although I am running the query in a thread I need the timeout because isc_service_query() blocks until it is ready to send some data otherwise. BTW, fbtracemgr used isc_info_svc_to_eof query, not isc_info_svc_line. The latter will produce very low performance. Thanks for the tip, I will try to re-write to use isc_info_svc_to_eof. Because it is not an error. Errors reported via status-vector :) Got it! Re-read TraceSvcUtil::runService() carefully... Thanks I will do, it might take me some time because I am still learning, but I wanted to thank you for your reply quickly first.
