Problem: I am getting BLR errors, followed by errors about entry point or module not defined when I try to use string functions included with ib_udf.dll that ships with InterBase 5.6. What am I doing wrong? Solution: The ib_udf.dll has functions in it that rely on the memory management functions that are in ib_util.dll. If you copy ib_util.dll into the interbasebin directory, you should be able to use the functions in ib_udf.dll successfully. Just in case you forgot how to define these functions in your database, here is a quick recap of how to do that: 1. Open ib_udf.sql that ships in the interbaseexamples directory. 2. Add a line to connect to your database at the beginning of the file. 3. Save the file. 4. Run the ib_udf.sql through WISQL or ISQL. 5. Issue a 'commit' command to save the function definitions to the database.
