Please forgive me as I am new to both Cocoa and databases. I am running firebird database. So through terminal, I use:
$ isql
Use CONNECT or CREATE DATABASE to specify a database
SQL> connect 'DbPATH' user UID password PASSWD;
to connect to my database. So in my project, in the class that is responsible for accessing the database, i have #include <isqlext.h> (which calls isql.h and iodbcunix.h) in the header and implementation files. So if I use DbConn(db, UID, PASSWD), my app crashes.... which tells me that this is not the right command or I need to include more files. So my question has now evolved into how do I use obj-C to communicate with my database? Is there any documentation on how to accomplish this or has anyone had experience with this? Thanks for the help and for your patience!

Actual Technologies has a Carbon example app using the Mac iODBC libraries. They claim it's easy to translate into Cocoa/ObjC. YMMV. It should at least give you some clues on how to set up the Xcode project (i.e. what libraries/frameworks to include, etc.).

I found this reference on the iodbc-macosx list at sourceforge. You might find some other clues there.

Finally, if you post the crash log from your app, or some other relevant snippet from Xcode of the feedback you get from the crash, you might make it more enticing for the list to follow up on your question. As it reads now, you're asking the list to help you program obj-C, and I'm guessing no one has time to debug that one.
