[Firebird-net-provider] Does firebird.net provider work with Interbase?

[David R. <dav...@nt...>]

Sorry if this is a daft question but I have to develop an app to talk =
with
an existing Interbase DB using C#. The firebird.net provider seemed =
perfect
but when I try to connect I get the following error=20

"An unhandled exception of type 'System.TypeLoadException' occurred in
firebirdsql.data.firebird.dll

Additional information: Invalid PInvoke metadata format."

Is this because the provider does not work with Interbase or is there
another cause?

Hello:

This usually gives trying to use an assembly built using .net 1.1 with 
.net 1.0.

It needs to work with Interbase 6.0, i am not sure if it will work with 
6.5 and 7.x

Which version of the .NET Data Provider, .NET Framework and Interbase 
are you using ??
