Delphi 2010 and Firebird - what DLL need to be included to deploy

Question

Assuming the Firebird client is installed what additional files need to be included with a Delphi 2010 application that uses dbExpress to access the Firebird database.

I assume dbxfb.dll (midas is included in the project 'uses') is required. Any others?

Answer 1

@John, you need deploy these files

• dbxfb.dll (firebird dbexpress driver)
• dbxconnections.ini
• dbxdrivers.ini
• midas.dll (if you use midas, unless you use the midaslib unit)
• fbclient.dll (the Firebird client library)
