Years ago I wrote a couple of apps using Firebird. I used Embedded SQL
and GPRE.

When Firebird's SQL capabilities grew, but GPRE didn't, I tried the C
API. I found it a total nightmare and now use Postgres and sqlite. I'm
just sayin' Firebird would be a good fit (in the middle) and I'd use it
if had a usable C API is all.

Don't be so tetchy
