What Dimitry said, or you can try this:
function _GetAliasDBFName(alias): string;
var
sl: TStringList;
begin
result := '';
sl := TStringList.Create;
try
sl.LoadFromFile('C:\Program Files\Firebird\Firebird_3_0\databases.conf');
result := sl.Values[alias];
finally
sl.Free;
end;
end;
Simply call _ GetAliasDBFName and pass your alias name as a param. Problem
might arise if FB team chooses to change name of database.conf file, or
re-allocate it.

Subject: [firebird-support] 3.x - Check if DB exist using alias
I'm using Delphi.
Which is the best way to check if a database exist if my connection is alias
based?
I have to try to connect and manage response?
Is there another way?
