Firebird 3 Embedded on MacOSX

I have finally managed to get around to preparing a mechanism for creating an embedded Firebird Framework on MacOSX (many thanks to the customer who sponsored the work). I will be committing the updated makefile embed.darwin shortly to B3_0_Release.
You can use the makefile to create a 32bit or 64 bit framework, depending on the build of Firebird you want.
Once you have a build of Firebird, you need to run make.platform.postfix, and then embed.darwin. The embeded framework is created in gen/Release/frameworks.

If you can't build Firebird from scratch you can download a copy of the embedded framework (currently Firebird 3.0.4) from IBPhoenix. (Approx 15mb)

32bit Embedded Framework
64bit Embedded Framework

Below is the embed.darwin makefile (updated 01-Oct-2019)

# Makefile script to generate an embedded Firebird Framework from a sucessful Firebird build
# To be run from the gen directory of a Firebird Release build
# Your application needs to be placed in the Resources/app directory.
