v2.14

• Improved : Design-time components were greyed out in component palette if current platform was different than Win32.
• Fixed : Field Not Found error with master detail link when changing SQL. (ref: https://support.tmssoftware.com/t/field-not-found-error-with-master-detail-link-when-changing-sql/19183)
• Fixed : Access Violation when using Master-Detail field alias with double quotes as parameter (ref: https://support.tmssoftware.com/t/access-violation-when-using-master-detail-field-alias-with-double-quotes-as-parameter/19236)
• Fixed : Access Violation when closing form with TXDataset in dsInsert (ref: https://support.tmssoftware.com/t/access-violation-when-closing-form-with-txdataset-in-dsinsert/19234)

v2.13

• New : Delphi 11 support.

v2.12

• New : Linux support (Indy-based server only). You can now use RemoteDB server on Linux, using Indy-based servers.

v2.11

• Improved : Performance increase when executing SQL statements with a big number of parameteres.

v2.10

• Fixed : Events BeforeStatement and AfterStatement were not correctly passing the value of SQL parameters used in the statement.

v2.9

• Fixed : InvalidFieldSize exception in float fields when using RemoteDB with native SQL Server driver (MSSQL).
• Fixed : Duplicated field name when using native SQL Server driver (MSSQL) and the SQL statement returned ambiguous (same name) fields.

v2.8

• New : Support for native database-access drivers. You can now use TRemoteDB using the database native drivers available in TMS Aurelius. Up until this version, RemoteDB servers and TGenericDatabase could only be used with dataset-based components like FireDAC, UniDAC, dbExpress, etc.. Now you can use the native Aurelius database drivers available (except for SQLite), which don't require any component at all, and are even faster!
• Improved : Support for batch updates when using TGenericDatabase. Up to this version, only TRemoteDBDatabase was supporting batch updates.
• Improved : Significant performance improvement when defining dataset pararameters (ArraySize property) when using batch updates.
• Fixed : Settings null parameter values when using batch updates was not working.

v2.7

• New : Support for Delphi 10.4 Sydney.
• Fixed : TXDataset.AutoApply property not working when the key field itself was modified.

v2.6

• Fixed : Using two parameters with the same name, differentiated just by a number (param1, param2), the same param value were being used for both params.
• Fixed : "Field not found" when using master-detail mechanism (regression from last version).

v2.5

• New : Batch updates (Array DML) mechanism for improved performance when inserting, updating or deleting several records at the same time. It is used both client-side (to use a single request to send SQL statement and all parameters at once) and server-side (to execute a single SQL statement in the database passing all parameters for all rows.

v2.4

• New : Integration plugin for Report Builder from Digital Metaphors. More info in this Youtube video.

v2.3

• New : Support for Android 64-bit platform (Delphi 10.3.3 Rio).

• Fixed : Error "Field is of unknown type" in blob fields when updating records using AutoApply.
• Fixed : Correct handle of fields of type ftOraClob. Now they have the same behavior as ftMemo.
• Fixed : AutoApply was not working when field names had spaces. If you were editing a record and modified a field which name had a space (like "Contact Name") and tried to Post the record using AutoApply, an error would be raised.

v2.1

• Improved : Optimizations have been implemented, performance has been improved, especially when retrieving big amount of data and/or executing many statements that use many query parameters each.
• Fixed : Previous version had broken compatibility with NexusDB integration, it's now fixed.

v1.4

• New : Delphi 10.1 Berlin support

v1.3

• New : Support for Advantage Database Server
• Improved : Server database objects lifetime: now objects expire right after timeout period has passed
• Improved : Client transactions now can get longer than timeout of server db objects, RemoteDB keeps server-side objects alive automatically
