Hi Fulvio,

I do development on MAC OS X using Objective-C. I think ( not sure)
it can interface with C++ code. Do you mind sharing your code (just
that part that connects to Firebid will be fine)? I would like to
test it out. Thanks. Also, thank you for your tip that FB is
installed as Framework.

Chris.
