I am trying to create a application that can be run on both windows
and linux.
I am tring to get my database to trigger an event when a change
occurs. As I understand it is not possible to do this yet. Is there
any plans in the future to enable this facilty - the research made
by IBPhoenix sounds a great idea in principal
(http://www.ibphoenix.com/a633.htm)?

I am therefore trying to create a UDF library. I have no problems in
creating this in C but was wandering if it is prossible to create a
udf library in Java and configure the firebird database to use a jar
instead of a dll?

Any help would be much appreciated.
