Firebird 2 on Windows


ball.gif Prime development tool is Visual Studio 2003, but MSVC6 is also supported. An installed version of Firebird should not be required to build the engine. (It is required to build the examples.) Environment is otherwise broadly the same.
  
ball.gif CVS checkout for 2.0.0 via console:
  set FB_CVS=:pserver:anonymous@firebird.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/firebird

  cvs -z3 -d %FB_CVS% checkout -P -r R2_0_0 firebird2
  
ball.gif The build can be executed from a single batch file:
  drive:\path\to\source\firebird2\builds\win32\run_all.bat
  
Unfortunately, the error checking is a little weak.
