Marco, we are _selling_ this applications for more than 8 months and we
havn't a single complaing about anything database related.
That's what I do
application is installed into
c:\Program Files\Application - this becomes user.dir when launching app
there I put
database.fdb
fbembedded.dll
jaybird.dll
msvcp60.dll /only if instalation procedure detects win98se or win98me/
launcher.exe

in my mainApp.java
String jlp = System.getProperty("java.library.path");
String ud = System.getProperty("user.dir");
System.setProperty("java.library.path",ud+System.getProperty("path.separator")
+"."+System.getProperty("path.separator")+jlp);
try {
initConnection();
} catch (DatabaseException) {
// do some stuff DatabaseException is our exception
}

works fine.
I can send you an URL to get a trial of one of the software which is
using embedded.
launcher.exe is build from commercial vendor - exe4j.
But it does nothing in common with libraries, since we use the same code
when developing and debugging
