We need to deploy an remote Delphi firebird client application without any DLL
Is there a way to do this?
Firebird remote server connection without DLL
Re: Firebird remote server connection without DLL
Hello,
My knowledge, you do absolutely need fbclient.dll for FirebirdSQL database access.
Having said so, you can maybe use EXE resources and put necessary DLL file in your EXE as a resource. Later, you can read it at run time and save to disk, next to your EXE for accessing your FirebirdSQL databases from your client's computers.
Thanks & Regards,

Kindly note that IBDAC interact with the server through the client library using a special API. There is no static linking of the client library in IBDAC, so you should either ship the client library with your application or it must be installed on the client computer.
