Subject Re: [firebird-support] Embedded Firebird & ODBC Connections
Author grostoon
BTW, is it safe to use the ODBC driver with libfbembed in a multithreaded
Unix or
Windows program that does direct connect to the database file (i.e connect
'/some/file.fdb';
no use of the fb_inet_server) where several threads execute SQL statements
in parallel ?
Or is it necessary to use libfbclient ?
