Hi,
from my attempt to put FB running on Android ....
The process is a little tricky.
1º
You must put the files( libfbclient, libEngine12, .. ) on asset folder and
then copy that to app/files folder.
The folder structure must be kept in order to work.
ex :
.../app.com/files/fb/firebird.conf
.../app.com/files/fb/firebird.msg
.../app.com/files/fb/lib/libfbclient.so
.../app.com/files/fb/plugins/libEngine12.so
.../app.com/files/fb/intl/intl.conf
.../app.com/files/fb/intl/libfbintl.so
I don't know if all files are necessary.
The process of putting native libraries on the lib folder will not work
because the embedded version must have the above structure.
2º
Load the libfbclient.so using the full path.
3º
FB tries to create the lock file on /data/local/tmp. In versions higher
than 5 this folder isn't writable.
You may set env variable FIREBIRD_LOCK to app/cache.
After that you should have the embedded version running.
