Hi, guys. I think, it's time to resolve bug that described here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1806144/firebird-connection-error-after-converting-project-from-vs2005-to-vs2008

I had exception while trying connect to Firebird:

System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.

Replacing line return
this.GetDatabaseInfo(items, IscCodes.BUFFER_SIZE_256)[0].ToString();

to this

ArrayList ar = this.GetDatabaseInfo(items, IscCodes.BUFFER_SIZE_256);
if (ar.Count > 0)
return ar[0].ToString();
else
return String.Empty;

helped me

File version: FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient.dll 4.5.1.0
