Hello,

For those that do Delphi Database Programming:
There is now a descendent of TDataset available in Free Pascal which can be used to connect to a Interbase database server.
The components are located in the FCL under
fcl/db/interbase.
(currently only in CVS, tomorrow also in source zips)

A simple 'make' in the db and db/interbase directories should compile everything; a test program is provided.

The Interbase support was developed by Pavel Stingl () any problems can be reported to him, although you may report problems to me as well.

The components seem to work fine, but should be tested more intensively. (Currently only a IB 6.0 client has been tested on a Linux platform)

Enjoy !

Michael.
