If he doesn't care about that part, then that may be the easiest/fastest way
to get something started. He has done much of the work for us already. I
am going to spend a few hours and see where I get...

I looked at interbase remote/interface.c and it appears that the semantics
of the gds api are similar to the semantice of the 3050 protocol. If we can
get something working with the api, then it could be changed to direct 3050
in the future. "Just" have to port the protocol/xdr stuff to java. We
could probably even come up with some java interfaces that would help the
conversion in the future.

Don't assume. He doesn't care about that part. Also, his C++
can be more or less mechanically turned into Java.
