7.2b5 notes
Just an FYI that the recent problem I had (in 7.2b2) naming a column
'Time' is not present in this beta. Although it was not critical that I
had a column named time, it does ease my porting effort.
Also...
when I downloaded 7.2b5 and compiled using the steps
./configure --with-perl --enable-odbc --with-unixodbc
make
I received and error in the .../interfaces/odbc directory about unknown
files
sql.h
and a couple of others (I did this at home last night).
Since I've only recently tried to use an application on Linux that uses
ODBC, I'm unfamiliar with the unixODBC manager and how to define odbc
DSN's on the Linux system. However, I'm pretty sure that I need to
compile with odbc enabled to install the Linux odbc driver. Correct?
Are my config options incorrect?
Running ./configure with no options and compiling resulted in no errors
and I could successfully make install. But I don't think I have an odbc
driver to use...
Thanks,
Dwayne

It sounds like you don't have unixODBC installed at all. See
www.unixodbc.org. "--with-unixodbc" doesn't mean you're using Unix and
you want to use ODBC. unixODBC is the product name of an ODBC driver
manager that runs on POSIXy operating systems. You might want to check
out the ODBC chapter in the Programmer's Guide, too.
