Then you are suffering from a misplaced prejudice...

The ib-support forum is for database support. There are 101 ways to
interface to Firebird, of which Java is but one. The interface areas are
supported each in its own forum, e.g. devrace for FIB-Plus, ibobjects for
IB Objects, firebird-java for Java.

I'm the moderator of both this list AND the firebird-java list and I'm
TELLING you that firebird-java is the place you need to go. I'm telling
you that your question is off-topic here and on-topic there.

I can also tell you without reservation that the quality of the solution
you will get from any list will be directly proportional to the quality of
your problem description.
