CodeGear is running an on-line survey about what customers would like to see in Delphi 2008. One of the questions: “Which databases do you require Delphi connectivity with?”
Firebird is among the choices so, it’s time to show to CodeGear the real need for official drivers supporting Firebird in Delphi. Vote now!

Loading...I have an older VB6 app that I want to extend the functionality, and the new features would require an embedded database.
[Firebird embedded can be used for an old vb6 application, hack is used in many places with delphi]

(No Ratings Yet)Loading...Firebird is prone to an integer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to ensure that integer values aren’t overrun. Attackers may exploit this issue to overflow a buffer and to corrupt process memory.
Attackers may be able to execute arbitrary machine code in the context of an affected application. Failed exploit attempts will likely result in a denial-of-service condition.

(No Ratings Yet)Loading...FBCopy is an open source command-line tool for copying and comparing
data in Firebird databases. It has the following features:
* copying data between databases (sorted by dependency tree)
* copying generator values (since version 1.70)
* comparing table fields
* comparing data (with detailed output in HTML)
* open source under MIT license
* cross platform – works on Windows and Linux
* works with all Firebird versions (tested 1.0 – 2.1)
* easy to integrate into batch jobs
* light for remote use via SSH
Version 1.70 introduces a new definition format which supports both
tables and generators, so now you can copy generator values as well.
The new version is backward compatible (i.e. it can read the
definition files generated with previous versions of FBCopy).
Linux binary in the package is compiled against FBClient 2, so it will
work with Firebird 2.0 and 2.1 (previous versions worked only with 1.0
and 1.5 servers).
