Subject Re: [firebird-support] UDF
Author Walter Neumann
Hallo Firebird Gurus,
trying out the different possibilities I find, that Firebird created the
directory UDF, but search the UDFs in the directory udf (Linux is
case-sensitive!). So it could not find the library. After declaring the path
in isc_config I can work with the ib_udf, but still not with my own
functions.
It seems to me, that it is a question of the right entrypoint. In the library
the functions are stored with the unit name and the object name and the
function name. But what sign should be used as deliminiter? Reading the
library with an editor I can see the @ sign. But that does not work.
Has anyone experiance with a Kylix/Delphi library?

Thank you for your help.
