Sounds like you need to use the embeded version of FB whcih starts with the
app and stops with the app automatically. The only down side is that it is
limited to local connections (which should be fine).

the fbserver should have an option to handle the shutdown well.

There seems to be a need for an autostop option in fbserver, Isn't it?

This might be slightly better, but my leave the fbserver running.
void db_test_stop_local_server(char* user, char* passwd)
{
HWND hWnd = NULL;
disconnect();
// check if there are other connections via isc_info_svc_svr_db_info
if (db_cnt_active_attachments(user, passwd) == 0 )
{
hWnd = FindWindow(szClassName, APP_NAME);
if (hWnd) {
PostMessage(hWnd, WM_CLOSE, 0, 0);
}
}
