   Listed in Makefile.libfbclient (Makefile.in.libfbclient).

   Most likely - yes if you know how to cross-compile at all (I don't).

> 3- when i search isc_attach_database i become many funktions on diverse folder, like gds_attach_database and REM_attach_database and so on, for a client library, is it necessary for firebird to pass the Functions Parameter over all this functions, or there is only one Function that make the attach-Command?

   Firebird architecture includes few modules, usually referenced as providers. Each 
provider exports the same API which differ only in function prefix because of POSIX 
linkage limitation. Prefix REM_ is for "remote" module. Modules are tried one-by-one by 
Y-valve (why.cpp) until one of them agree to accept connection. So, parameters must be 
passed only to isc_attach_database(), the rest will be called automatically.
   As I already said it is possible to bypass Y-valve and build client containing only 
"remote" provider, but for current codebase it requires quite a few modification (which is 
mostly copy-paste).
