What is there about IBX that you want to emulate?

Differences from IBX? yes, many, many. IBO fully supports the IB/FB
transaction model, IBX doesn't. People tend to use a lot of workarounds
with IBX to get where they need to go - such as clientdatasets and caching
to get a receptive client-side view of sets. In IBO you don't need the
workarounds, because the components implement what's required, without them.

Describe what you want to achieve.
