Adaptive Server ODBC Driver Configuration
When connecting to the database, ODBC applications typically use ODBC datasources. An
ODBC datasource is a set of connection parameters, stored in the registry or in a file. ODBC
datasources on non-Windows platforms typically reside in an ini file. Most
ODBC Driver Managers provide a GUI tool to configure ODBC Driver and datasources.
- Microsoft Windows
When you use the Sybase SDK installation program to install the Adaptive Server ODBC Driver, it registers the driver on the local machine. You can manually register the Adaptive Server ODBC Driver on Microsoft Windows using the regsvr32 utility.
- UNIX
The unixODBC Driver Manager supports configuring drivers and datasources from a GUI as well as the command line.
- ODBC ini Files
The ODBC Driver Manager stores driver and datasource information in ini files or the system registry.
