Created attachment 141294 [details] test file with hsql embedded data with view definition Tested with Libo6.1alpha (daily) Open attached file, created with Libo6.0.4 embedded hsql data and a single View. Check the tables, the View was not migrated. I would of expected for the view definition do migrate just as the single query in that test file did.
Could confirm the buggy behavior. View hasn't been created by the automatic migration from HSQLDB to Firebird with Version: 6.1.0.0.alpha0+ Build-ID: dc823f5fa4a5d2eca56297b9045e5962536c00f9 CPU-Threads: 4; BS: Linux 4.4; UI-Render: Standard; VCL: kde4; TinderBox: Linux-rpm_deb-x86_64@70-TDF, Branch:master, Time: 2018-04-10_23:32:35 Tested with OpenSUSE 42.3 64bit rpm Linux

Verified with simple views. Views that use hsqldb specific features fail, which fails the entire migration. Not sure what could be done about that, other than having the users change the views before the migration. This bug should be closed verified though. I've attached another test file. This one has two views: vEventReservations (simple view, migrates no problem) vEventCustomers (this view uses the CONCAT function and fails to migrate)
Created attachment 141456 [details] test file with two views the attached file has the two views. With vEventCustomers the file will fail migration. Remove vEventCustomers and the file will migrate with vEventReservations included.

We have to open another bug for views, which will fail. There are different possibilities to change this behavior: → Views, which fail in Firebird, should be saved as queries. So the code isn't lost. This is the simplest version. → Views with functions, that aren't defined with that specific name in Firebird, but will work with functions of Firebird the same way, should be "translated" to the new functions: CONCAT doesn't work. || will work. LCASE doesn't work. LOWER will work. ...
