I have added in my batch file :
set path = c:\myfolder
where I have put fbembed.dll. I put it too in c:\windows\system32.

I have checked : System.getProperty("java.library.path")
and I can see : c:\windows\system32 (among others)

I launch my application with :
java -classpath "%javadir%\lib\firebirdSQL\firebirdSQL-full.jar" ...

where firebirdSQL-full.jar is from "FirebirdSQL-1.5.0RC3JDK_1.4.zip"

So I'm sure not to use firebirdsql 1.0, but it still doesn't work
