Subject AW: [firebird-support] multiple embedded versions
Author Ralf Jansen

I’m using multiple firebird embedded versions from within the same process without fiddling around in environment variables like FIREBIRD_LOCK or conf files of the different firebird versions.

 

There should be no need in doing anything special. Just use the version(s) you like.

hi,

let's say that i have differents applications on different folders .

 

each folder contain a firebird database and an embedded firebird dll .

 

is it safe to use this setup knowing that all the embedded libraries will use the same firebird lock directory .

 

the reason for this and not using a regular firebird server is that i am on a web shared hosting environement ,

i have several websites on the same server and each website have it's own database and fbembed.dll library .

 

i have managed to use the firebird embedded on the shared hosting by setting

the FIREBIRD_LOCK variable , but i dont know if it safe to use this setup that way .

 

 

another option is to use a single fbembed.dll library for all the website but i don't know if it's possible .

in any case there is a firebird database .gdb for each single website / process .

 

 

any idea is welcome , thanks .
