Steps

1. Download and install the latest 64-bit DBVisualizer from the download section of http://www.dbvis.com/.

   • For Windows it is recommended to download the DBVisualizer 64-bit with embedded JRE. This way it is guaranteed that the firebird driver is always started with 64-bit java.
   • Install DBVisualizer in a directory that does not contain any spaces.
2. Extract dbvis_addons.zip into the DBVisualizer installation directory.
3. Download the example urls from dbvis_settings.jar and import them from within DBVisualizer using File->Import settings.
4. Right-Click and duplicate the example connection and put in the correct connection details.
