* src/rdd/wafunc.c
    % use dynamic symbol pointer to find field index

  * src/rdd/workarea.c
    * set default maximum field size to HB_SYMBOL_NAME_LEN characters
      (by default in Harbour builds HB_SYMBOL_NAME_LEN is 63)
      Some RDDs may set longer names but it will be respected only by
      FieldName() function and in all other cases only HB_SYMBOL_NAME_LEN
      characters is significant for Harbour so such decision should be
      well thought by RDD authors because it may confuse users.
      Warning: all 3-rd party RDDs which need to force shorter names
               should update uiMaxFieldNameLength in their NEW() method
               just after SUPER_NEW() call, i.e. like in core DBF RDD.
    ! respect uiMaxFieldNameLength when new fields are added

  * src/rdd/dbf1.c
    * set maximum field size to 10 characters

  * contrib/rddsql/sqlbase.c
    - removed code used to set uiMaxFieldNameLength to HB_SYMBOL_NAME_LEN.
      Now it's default field length value for each RDD unless it does not
      change it.

  * contrib/rddads/ads1.c
    * minor modification in adsFieldName()

  * contrib/hbwin/wapi_winbase.c
    + added support for FORMAT_MESSAGE_ALLOCATE_BUFFER and 6-th <nSize>
      parameter to wapi_FormatMessage() function. The 6-th <nSize> parameter
      has higher priority then size of string passed in the 5-th parameter.
    ! fixed potential memory leak

RDD for Advantage Database Server
Alexander Kresin <alex@belacy.belgorod.su>


For using this RDD you need to have all required dynamic libraries
installed on your system.

For building executables don't forget to include rddads.hbc in your
hbmk2 project.

You need to include in your prg file the following lines:

   REQUEST ADS

and then you can set default RDD using one of the following functions:

   rddSetDefault( "ADT" )
   rddSetDefault( "ADSNTX" )
   rddSetDefault( "ADSCDX" )
   rddSetDefault( "ADSVFP" )

You can also use:

   REQUEST ADT | ADSNTX | ADSCDX | ADSVFP

instead of REQUEST ADS.

for backward compatibility with old code it's possible to use also:
   rddSetDefault( "ADS" )
and then
   #include "ads.ch"
   SET FILETYPE TO NTX | CDX | ADT | VFP
command or AdsSetFileType() function to set table type (default is CDX)

By default RDD is tuned for remote server. To change this you may
use commands, defined in ads.ch:

  SET SERVER LOCAL

or function AdsSetServerType().
