Hi,

I know that InterBase is supposed to be an 'embeddable' database ('The 
powerful, embeddable database' as per CodeGear).

I've know and used this sql server for quite some years and it's great - 
performant, light-wieght, resilient and reliable.

But what does CodeGear mean by embeddable?
What I understand by embeddable is that the sql db engine can be statically 
linked to your application (or dynamically via shared library/dll) and 
database/sql access is done directly in the app's address space (not via 
sockets or other interprocess communication scheme) and that the engine is 
not running in another process. That is my understanding of an 'embedded' 
database.

I am under the impression that Interbase does not do what I mean by 
'embeddable' above.

Can anyone confirm if this is the case please? Or (even better!) surprise me 
and tell that this *is* the case?

Thanks - Adrian.
