Solaris port of Firebird 2.5 on x86 finished
Alex Peshkov wrote on firebird-devel list
Happy to notify you that I’ve finished with solaris port of 2.5 on x86. I.e.
currently out code base works not only with windows and posix threading, but
also with native solaris. Both dev and release builds pass tcs OK except few
minor issues with double precision arithmetics, when digits like
12.3456789123456 differ in the last column. I suppose this is related with
VirtualBox VM problems (in all other aspects it runs Solaris wonderful).

Tests with MSVC8 runtimes and Firebird 2.1.1
For all those who followed this thread, I will sum up what we have
found out:
Up until FB 2.0 it was possible to deliver a Firebird Client or a
Firebird Embedded Server by just copying the files like fbclient.dll
or fbembed.dll (and a few others) together with the MS VC Runtimes
(msv*.dll) into one folder.
Starting with MSVC8 (which is used by Firebird 2.1) and Windows XP,
just having the MSVC files in the same directory is not sufficient any
more. They have to be “installed correctly”. I don’t know what that
means exactly, but in effect it means they have to somehow be
magically teleported to the Windows\WinSxS directory where they get
funny names. Read more
