Support for PRINT differs in Adaptive Server Enterprise, SQL Anywhere, and Sybase IQ.
The effect of PRINT depends on the client:
Adaptive Server Enterprise PRINT always sends a message to the client.
In SQL Anywhere and Sybase IQ, PRINT sends a message to the client for Open Client and JDBC connections.
Adaptive Server Enterprise stored procedures that rely on PRINT work in Sybase IQ using Interactive SQL.
Sybase IQ users might prefer Interactive SQL with JDBC, rather than the iAdaptive Server Anywhere JDBC driver (formerly called the JDBC-ODBC bridge).
