I didn't do anything exciting I'm afraid: all I did was to add "Firebird" to
the repository.dtd:
<!ATTLIST jdbc-connection-descriptor
platform (Db2 | Hsqldb | Informix | MsAccess | MsSQLServer |
MySQL | Oracle | PostgreSQL | Sybase | Sapdb | Firebird)
"Hsqldb"
jdbc-level (1.0 | 2.0 | 3.0) "1.0"
eager-release (true | false) "false"
And then declare "Firebird" in my config, using the JCA-JDBC driver.
The app is fairly straightforward and uses no complex queries, so it may be
that more work is needed for full compatibility. Certainly for inserts and
simple queries (I think including some simple 1-1 relationships) everything
worked just fine.
Firebird is an excellent database: tiny footprint, open source, nice variant
of SQL, well documented, and a great management GUI is available at
www.ibexpert.com (free for personal use).
