    HowTo

    Developers

    If you are considering helping with development, you can check out the latest sources from the Firebird project tree on Sourceforge's cvs server. You don't have to be a Firebird project member to download the code with anonymous access.

    • The CVS tree is viewable in a web browser here.
    • To download the source you need to have a CVS client available. Use the following two commands:
      cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@firebird.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/firebird login
      cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@firebird.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/firebird co OdbcJdbc

    • There is an MSVC workspace for building the driver for Win32. Make OdbcJdbcSetup the active project and do a build all. There are also make files for other platforms (e.g. Linux and FreeBSD).
