How to create an embedded database using Firebird in C#

Question

I am trying to setup an embedded database for my c# application. I try many things but cannot get it working. How can I do it? I mean which files to which folder? I have firebirdclient referenced in my program. Could you please write a summary? thanks in advance...

Answer 1

1. Ensure that the fbembed.dll is in the same folder as your application source code
2. Add the fbembed.dll to your C Sharp application from the "Add existing item" menu option (if you have not already done so)
3. Set the output property of this item to "Copy Always".

I have been using C# and fbembed.dll a lot recently, if you need any more information please reply here.

Answer 2

With little bit older links (older versions of FB), but still valid http://blog.cincura.net/224165-firebird-embedded-and-net/ .

Also you should use proper fbembed.dll and not just rename fbclient.dll.
