* Firebird and Interbase Data Provider
<ul>
<li>Does not exist in Mono, but is a separate project</li>
<li><a href="http://firebird.sourceforge.net/index.php">Firebird Relational Database</a> is
an independent project which uses source code based on the Interbase source code released
by Borland under the Interbase Public License.</li>
<li>Both the Firebird Relational Database and the Firebird .NET Data Provider can be
downloaded from <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/firebird/firebird">here</a></li>
<li>The Firebird .NET Data provider has been made
available by Carlos Guzmán Álvarez (aka "Carlos G.A."), who has also made a
number of contributions to the OdbcJdbc code.</li>
<li>Stuff that works:
<ul>
<li>CommandBuilder</li>
<li>DataReader</li>
<li>SchemaTable</li>
<li>DataAdapter</li>
<li>BatchQuerys</li>
<li>ExecuteNonQuery</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
* Current Status
<ul>
<li>Currently, it is able to connect to Firebird and Interbase databases
and execute commands</li>
<li>The new data
provider/driver is written in C# and provides a high-performance native
implementation of the GDS32/API functions. This means that .Net developers
will be able to access Firebird databases without the need of Firebird
client install.<li>
<li>In support of the new module, a new mailing list
<a href="http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/firebird-net-provider">firebird-net-provider</a> has
been created. Please use this list for any
questions that you may have about the provider.</li>
<li>CommandBuilder works</li>
</ul>
* Action Plan
<ul>
<li>Get it to work on Mono too</li>
<li>Connection Pooling.</li>
</ul>
