Jiří Činčura wrote on Firebird-devel : There’s something I’ve been working on for a few evenings and weekends.
As you might know, from Firebird 3 there’s and interface to write a
plugin that allows to execute any code as stored procedure, function or
trigger.
So why not to have these in .NET, right? I have a working plugin right
now. Currently only stored procedures are supported. No blobs at the
moment as well
Firebird 3.0 Package is uploaded into Firebird 3.0 ppa.
There are packages for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Trusty) and Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial).
UIB For Firebird 3.0 is out
I’m pleased to release first test version of FB/Java, compatible with Firebird 3.0.0.
https://github.com/FirebirdSQL/fbjava/releases
FB/Java is an External Engine plugin for Firebird that makes Firebird capable of run functions, procedures and triggers made in the Java platform.
It complements Jaybird making it interface with Firebird engine and handling the infrastructure necessary to support user routines.
It also has a client utility with functions to install and uninstall the plugin in a database and that users may use to deploy and undeploy Java classes and resources stored in JAR files to a database.
Bugs should be filed in the github project.
This test version uses a modified snapshot of Jaybird 3.0.

Today is the last day to register for the 13th Firebird Developers Day, to be held in Brazil, 9-July.
It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing this week of Aage Johansen, in Oslo, Norway. A Firebird stalwart since its very first days in 1999, Aage was a founding member of the Firebird Foundation and has constantly maintained his membership and his faith in what the Firebird team could achieve.
Over the years he has contributed generously, but quietly, to the Foundation, to the support lists, to reviews of documentation and to testing international character set issues. Aage’s colleague at his workplace, Kreftregisteret Norway, Svein Erling Tysvaer, commented, “He will be greatly missed, both as a friend and as an employee – he was the only one with the combination of medical, programming and historical skills, and some of the work he’s done, no-one else can do.”
Those of us in the Firebird Project who have been privileged to work with Aage feel the same.
Aage’s funeral service will take place next Tuesday, 31 May, at Manglerud Kirche, Oslo, at 11 a.m. Rest in peace, Aage Johansen.
