ok, so i was able to compile with the version linked below. that is a start. and i copied the FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient over to the scanner's \windows directory.
so, do i need a version of fbclient.dll on the scanner for the FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient.dll to reach the server? or does FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient.dll access it directly? if i need fbclient.dll, do i need a special version of it? can i compile its source for my CF5/.NET2 platform? i tried a simple transfer of both fbclient.dll v2.5x32bit and v1.5x32bit but neither worked, i even tried gds32.dll from v1.5x32bit. thank you in advance, lucas On 11/30/15 11:43 AM, Louis van Alphen wrote: > Ping uses different protocol AFAIK.
