Loading...Qt4 + Firebird – problem solved in ubuntu
This week I looked at Firebird2 and decided to give it a try. In a few minutes I discovered that the package libqt4-sql (the one that provides support for accessing databases from Qt4 apps) comes with just a few drivers enabled (coincidentally the ones that I mentioned above). Firebird is NOT enabled by default.
Here is how it was solved

[ED:There is an nice firebird mention ]
Using Apache, Webware and Firebird as the database I set out to build something.
Firebird? Yes anything to avoid the MySQL bandwagon. I couldn’t say for sure now, but at the time Firebird was far superior to MySQL. The Firebird team didn’t think that ACID properties, foreign key constraints, stored procedures etc. were just some esoteric optional extras for something with pretensions to being an RDBMS.

Firebird is being used (and distributed) in several applications produced by DataSUS. SUS is the name of the unified public health system in Brazil. DataSUS is the department responsible for the development of computer applications, etc.
The applications are used in hospitals spreaded in the whole country. You can find several references of Firebird in DataSUS site, like here and here. Probably there are thousands of Firebird servers running only in the Brazilian’s hospitals.

Firebird .NET provider has ability to create parameterized queries. Both named and unnamed parameters are supported. Everything works as you expect with select, insert, delete or update commands. The tricky part comes with stored procedures. Unlike MS SQL, that has direct support for named parameters, in provider, we’re parsing parameter names and we’re sending it to server “in right order”, so developer doesn’t need to know, that internally parameters were send unnamed.
