We are currently converting from FB1.5 D1 to FB2.1 D3. Everything is
relatively painless until we get to generators ;-/
My understanding is that generators are now 64 bit with no option.
Therefore all table columns set by generators have to be changed to bigint,
all SP and trigger variables/parameters handling these columns or
derivitives of them need to be changed and all Delphi references to them
need to be changed.
Moving from int to bigint generators is of zero benefit to me while the pain
of conversion will be HUGE.
Is there any other option?
Regards
Paul
