Subject Groups in Firebird
Author Sérgio Marcelo @ Smace . com . BR
I'd like to have "Groups of grants" in Firebird. I know an easy way of doing
it. Who should I talk to make it happen?

--

One way is adding RDB$GROUPS table like RDB$ROLES.

CREATE TABLE RDB$GROUPS (
RDB$GROUP_NAME CHAR(31) CHARACTER SET UNICODE_FSS,
RDB$OWNER_NAME CHAR(31) CHARACTER SET UNICODE_FSS
);

And then replacing RDB$SECURITY_CLASSES by one View instead of table. This
view catches all data from RDB$RELATION_FIELDS and *automatically adds
grants (from the groups) (thought one select, union (whatever). I belive.
It's not so hard doing. As you can see. So, I'd like to implement it. But I
am not sure about changing RDB$ tables. And how we can add it to the default
firebird distro.

Am I sending this msg to the right Firebird group?

I hope someone helps me. Thank you all.
