Sure. What exact version of IBPP are you using ?
Officially the 2.3 code base has not yet been released.
And the initial 2.2 code base didn't took into account the loading of
the (embedded) fbclient.dll from the host executable location.

Have a look to ibpp.cpp source file. The portion that loads the DLL. You
might want to replace it with the corresponding lines of code from 2.3
(to be released right after this week-end) or even download the beta 2.3
code from sourceforge area. That's stable. And will do the work for you.

This is highly an IBPP matter, I think. So feel free to turn followups
of this to ibpp-discuss @ lists.sourceforge.net instead than here if you
like.

Indeed. IBPP 2.2 was out well before Firebird 1.5. And specifics of the
embedded library are NOT taken in to account. Use the 2.3 beta code
which will be proclaimed released in some days anyway.
