News from the Firebird developers.

Firebird to be included in #Mageia : a new GNU #Linux distribution based on #Mandriva Ashes

Leave a comment

Firebird history and Mageia story are related to each other  , here are the Philippe’s kind words

A new GNU Linux distribution is born : Mageia, a Mandriva Linux fork.

So why speak about this here ?

First, Firebird packages need a maintainer and as I am the one in Mandriva, I will do the same in Mageia

Second, this story remind me a little the Firebird story

Third I’m enthusiast to contribute (may be more than only Firebird related packages) to a such challenging adventure, and in this one, there are people that I really trust.

Long live Mageia : http://www.mageia.org/

#ASP + Firebird: #VisualBasicScript, #JavaScript and #PerlScript

Leave a comment

In our example I’ll show you how to use ASP to access a Firebird database via VisualBasicScript, JavaScript and PerlScript. Although not my favorite language, ASP will serve to illustrate the example. Also note that ASP uses ADO technology to access the database. This involves several “layers” so that access occurs.
Of course this may make access a little slow, but not the object of this article. It also assumes that the reader knows the ASP technology.
