Firebird looks nice, but it stills lacks in the documentation area compared
to PostgreSQL and MySQL.
Where can I find documentation about:
SQL statements
==============
Each db engine have their own additions, where can I find information about
firebirds.
* How do create table/altert able/drop table look like in firebird.
* How should sp's look like?
* triggers
Column types
============
Same with column types. Which of the SQL92 column types do firebird
implement, and do fb add any own additions?
Usermanagement
==============
I know about the gsec utility. Are there any corresponding SQL statements?
What roles are there?
is the GRANT/REVOKE statement supported?
General
=======
Are there a search function for the doc? There are quite a lot of
documentation, but in
lot's of different files/sections which makes it hard to find specific
topics.
The most useful (imho) documentation is the mssql migration guide, but why
not make it more general?
I've used a lot of different db engines, and a general guide with the same
info would be proven
useful for everyone that is coming from another db.
