Hi,

I am digging the internet to find the exact solution to my needs and It
seems that ultralight is the answer.

I want to connect to my desktop database which is firebird in realtime and
wireless using a pocket pc. I will going to develop the client side
project using visual studio 2005 .I have VS 2005 in hand. Now what will I
have to buy ?
On the sybase website I have seen a developer license . I think this is to
develop the project and then when I want to deplay the
project what should I buy extra ? Can you show me a way ?

Regards

Metin Gonen

UltraLite is the right answer :-)

Hmm...you will have to define what you mean by "connect in real time to
firebird". UltraLite (UL) synchronizes its data using the MobiLink
Synchronization Server (ML). ML supports the following consolidated (or
"central") databases:

ASA, ASE, Oracle, MSSQL, DB/2

There is no official support for Firebird. You might be able to achieve
synchronization with Firebird if its ODBC driver is capable enough, or
by using some other technology such as ASA's Proxy Tables. So the
picture would look like:

UltraLite <-> MobiLink <-> ASA <-> Firebird

For information aobut licensing issues, you will need to speak with an
iAnywhere/Sybase sales representative:
