Subject embedding firebird in a linux application
Author Todd Fisher
Hi,
I have been working on getting firebird to embed into a native linux
application. So, far I've come up with the following:

1. The embedding application can not link dyamnically to
libfbembed.so it must link statically. This is really too bad because
it dramatically increases the size of the application.
2. The embedding application needs two files in ${prefix}/firebird
isc_init1.hostname
isc_lock1.hostname


I know I can create these files using isql_static by running it as
root. Are there any C functions that I can call in my application to
create those files without having to run isql_static? And is it
possible to via some environment variable change the ${prefix}
at runtime?

thanks,

todd
