I just managed to simply copy the jaybird21.dll to Firebird Embedded dir
and start Java without any DLL specified.

@echo off
set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0-32bit
set FIREBIRD=D:\Program Files\Firebird.2.1.3-embed
set PATH=%FIREBIRD%;%PATH%;%JAVA_HOME%\bin

echo %PATH%

"%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java.exe" -classpath .;jaybird-full-2.1.6.jar %*

(difference to yesterday' config is that path to FIREBIRD is not in
double qoutes, seems to be some issue with Windows).

So, with this setup I see no reason to change anything at all. You
simply specify the FIREBIRD environment variable in Windows, add this
directory to the path as well and do not forget to copy the
jaybird21.dll to %FIREBIRD%. Any IDE will inherit the Windows
environment and will work with Firebird Embedded.

Did I miss something?
