Because it's as designed. What problems with it?
Having to construct the config string is awkward, especially when you
already have a mechanism that is used to communicate other connection
properties: that is individual items in the DPB.
People use it for many years to create trace configurations. Much more
often I've used to hear that building DPB is very hard programming task
;) But what about text pairs Name=Value you are the first.
I didn't say it was hard, I said it was awkward, because it deviates
from the normal pattern. Jaybird has all the plumbing to populate DPBs
items, so that was already a solved problem.
Especially given the client itself does use isc_dpb_auth_plugin_list
to communicate its plugins to the server, it is surprising that the
user application can't communicate its intent to the client in the
same way.
Item added to commuicate between client and server inside DPB. But I
agree that it's presence is an argument to be understood from client app
too - please add ticket to the tracker.
Done, http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-5860
