Interbase has supported 2pc since the 80's, in fact may have been the first
db to support it (they also invented blobs, original meaning as in "blob
that ate cincinnatti", binary large object was a marketers invention). The
semantics are a little different from what xa likes, but this can be worked
around.
Interclient from borland or firebird does not support xa, and suffers from
ridiculous architecture. It is not worth trying to add xa to it, imho.
I am working on a pure java jca/jdbc-like resource adapter for firebird
dialect 3 databases that does support xa. According to my unit tests, the
xa stuff works fine except for recovery ( not yet implemented) and queries
seem to work fine. I'm about to see if I can package it up as a rar and
use it with jboss.
