Hi folks,
Can someone please give me a hint with this problem. I'm new to
Firebird, but I needed a database which could be used in embedded
fashion, and seemed to have a choice of one under Linux.
What I need to do is to return a value generated by a Firebird
generator into my Pascal code. Doing it what seemed to me to be the
obvious way returns zero rows, do I need to update an interim table
and then query that table? Or is there some other method which I've
missed?
Embedded in what way? I use Firebird on occasion as an alternative to
PostgreSQL (i.e. in a client-server scenario), but I'd have thought for
a single-system application SQLite would have been worth a look.
Having said that, apart from Firebird's poor documentation I've had no
significant problem querying and updating tables. What exactly are you
trying to do?
