Very strange. I have changed the code a bit to reflect my environment,
but it works without any problem. Command to start was

c:/Programme/jdk1.5.0/jre/bin/java -classpath jaybird-full-2.1.1.jar;. Test

and the code is the following:

import java.sql.Connection;
import org.firebirdsql.pool.FBWrappingDataSource;

public class Test {

/** Creates a new instance of Main */
public Test() {

}

public static void main(String[] args) {

try {
FBWrappingDataSource ds = new FBWrappingDataSource();

ds.setDescription("Main Aktiv Firebird Database");

ds.setDatabase("localhost:D:/database/as3ap.fdb");
ds.setUserName("sysdba");
ds.setPassword("masterkey");
ds.setMaxPoolSize(20);
ds.setMaxIdleTime(60000);
ds.setPooling(true);
ds.setType("TYPE4");
ds.setMinPoolSize(3);
ds.setLoginTimeout(10);
Connection con = ds.getConnection();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

Frankly, I can't explain, why the classloader does not find the
.properties file in the archive.
