How much attention should QA pay to Integrated Firebird? Is there some part of the work for which bug reports would be useful? I can imagine, for example, looking at a bug report against embedded HSQLDB and trying the same thing on Firebird. If Firebird shows the same bug, that is unremarkable; if Firebird works better than HSQLDB, that is interesting in the context of the original bug; if Firebird is worse than HSQLDB (including not being able to get far enough to demonstrate the bug), that is a bug in the Firebird support.

I don't think it's worth paying too much attention to it quite yet since there are still a few fairly visible holes that are known and there only because I haven't gotten round to implementing the function in question -- however hopefully I'll be able to clear these up in the next week or two, after which full testing would be useful. (Specifically off the top of my head: some index issues, no comments for tables/columns, floating point numbers are acting a bit strangely but that seems to be common to HSQLDB, metadata on data types is partially wrong -- however in any case bug reports would probably still be a useful reminder of what needs doing.) I can imagine, for example, looking at a bug report against embedded HSQLDB and trying the same thing on Firebird. If Firebird shows the same bug, that is unremarkable; if Firebird works better than HSQLDB, that is interesting in the context of the original bug; if Firebird is worse than HSQLDB (including not being able to get far enough to demonstrate the bug), that is a bug in the Firebird support. That would actually be very useful I think, especially since common issues are likely to be a bug in Base and hence narrow down where to look to fix them.

[GSOC]Firebird Integration Weekly Update 12
Hello everyone, Current status of the firebird-sdbc driver is: - (Var)Char, Numeric and Date/Time types all supported. (No support for blob/clob/array/etc. yet.) - Data Editing in the GUI works. - Data Insertion works. (- Table and Column definition/manipulation is mostly complete, there might still be a few minor-to-major issues, indexes aren't supported at all.) - Usable on Linux, Mac, Windows (thanks to tml for fixing the fbembed library / loading on Mac). Progress this week: -Set FIREBIRD_TMP/FIREBIRD_LOCK: by default firebird uses /tmp or C: \temp for temporary storage, which can often be incorrect (specifically detected by tml when using Mac sandboxing) -- we now tell fb to use whatever the correct tmp dir is (determined by osl::FileBase). - Implement integer types retrieval and storage. - Implement Date/Time/Timestamp retrieval and storage. - Implement float/double retrieval and storage. - Fix some metadata to do with floats/doubles. - Fix OGeneralPageWizard: I put the code for dealing with the embedded db list in the wrong class, this class is reused for a dialog that allows changing the database connection for remote dbs, which was crashing since the .ui files don't contain the embedded db selector. - Implemented retrieval of change count (number of rows inserted/updated/deleted/selected) which is used for executeUpdate currently. - Fixed the strange behaviour that was occuring when an inserted row was displayed wrongly in the UI -- this was since executeUpdate returned 0 (as a temporary measure until I got round to implementing it) and dbaccess/KeySet relies on this value to detect that an insert actually occured. This week I'll try and look at implementing stuff to do with indexes and foreign keys, this would allow me to do some testing around the icu/index issues. I'll also try and set up a few different builds with different icu versions for testing once I have suitable code ready. (I'm also currently looking at implementing local .fdb loading.)
