IMO, arrays are a very useful - if not often needed - addition to the

If the second argument to BIT_SHL/BIT_SHR is 64 or greater, it is taken modulo
64 before the shift operation is performed. This leads to unexpected

save that in a file, like we do on Posix? It won't hurt anybody, even if
they expect the old 'masterke', as long as the installer informs them.

this could speed up debugging.
But I would drop the database name from the first message and only mention the
directory path, a) because that's the location, and b) for consistency between
DatabaseAccess and ExternalFileAccess.

Ideally (if it's not too much work), the message should be something like "The

BTW, I didn't look at evlCharToUuid, but I guess similar things are happening
there, because on little-endians CHAR_TO_UUID works fine despite the flaws in
StringToGuid, and CHAR_TO_UUID2 doesn't.
So, all in all, our five UUID functions are all flawed on at least one type of

the existing conversion functions copy the bytes one by one without any

e, I strongly suggest:
- Fix GEN_UUID by making GenerateGuid() return the time-high-and-version word
in network order. That's all it takes!
- Drop CHAR_TO_UUID2 and UUID_TO_CHAR2 before the final release of Firebird
2.5.2.
- Keep CHAR_TO_UUID and UUID_TO_CHAR as they are, except that UUID_TO_

Guys, I think it's better to

- drop uuid_to_char2() and char_to_uuid2() before they see the light of day.
BTW, I would have posted much earlier but I usually don't have time to follow
firebid-devel. I got alerted to this issue because of a DOC tracker item
assigned to me.

Now that the SQLSTATE context variable has been implemented for 2.5.1, it seems
logical to also support WHEN SQLSTATE , analogous to WHEN SQLCODE and

Possibly even in 2.5.1...?

For (VAR)CHARS, the high byte of the subtype contains the collation ID.
