databases.conf syntax enhancement #8050

Open WarmBooter opened 2 months ago

Occasionally, it becomes necessary to specify certain parameters for a database in the databases.conf file. However, there might be cases where creating an alias for these parameters is not desirable. Currently, the only available approach to achieve this in databases.conf is by using a workaround like:

c:\path\mydb.fdb = c:\path\mydb.fdb { DefaultDbCachePages = 10000 }

For such cases, it would be easier if we could do just something like this:

c:\path\mydb.fdb { DefaultDbCachePages = 10000 }
