Package org.firebirdsql.gds Description

TODO: To be rewritten

This package contains classes defining Firebird API for Java language that applications can use to access databases directly without JDBC interfaces. This is probably most efficient way to access the database, however also it is the most complicated one and requires deep knowledge of the Firebird API. For better understanding please refer to the "InterBase 6 API Guide" published by Borland and released together with the open-sourcing the InterBase code, a predecessor of Firebird.

Please refer to the documentation in the javadoc comments as well as to the source code for more information.
