ODBC driver required files

The following table shows the files needed for a working SQL Anywhere ODBC driver. These files should be placed in a single directory. The SQL Anywhere installation places them all in the operating-system subdirectory of your SQL Anywhere installation directory (for example, bin32 or bin64).

The multithreaded version of the ODBC driver for Linux, Unix, and Mac OS X platforms is indicated by "MT".

Platform	Required files
Windows	dbodbc12.dll dbcon12.dll dbicu12.dll dbicudt12.dll dblg[LL]12.dll dbelevate12.exe
Windows Mobile	dbodbc12.dll dbicu12.dll (optional) dbicudt12.dat (optional) dblg[LL]12.dll
Linux, Solaris, HP-UX	libdbodbc12.so.1 libdbodbc12_n.so.1 libdbodm12.so.1 libdbtasks12.so.1 libdbicu12.so.1 libdbicudt12.so.1 dblg[LL]12.res
Linux, Solaris, HP-UX MT	libdbodbc12.so.1 libdbodbc12_r.so.1 libdbodm12.so.1 libdbtasks12_r.so.1 libdbicu12_r.so.1 libdbicudt12.so.1 dblg[LL]12.res
AIX	libdbodbc12.so libdbodbc12_n.so libdbodm12.so libdbtasks12.so libdbicu12.so libdbicudt12.so dblg[LL]12.res
AIX MT	libdbodbc12.so libdbodbc12_r.so libdbodm12.so libdbtasks12_r.so libdbicu12_r.so libdbicudt12.so dblg[LL]12.res
Mac OS X	dbodbc12.bundle libdbodbc12.dylib libdbodbc12_n.dylib libdbodm12.dylib libdbtasks12.dylib libdbicu12.dylib libdbicudt12.dylib dblg[LL]12.res
Mac OS X MT	dbodbc12_r.bundle libdbodbc12.dylib libdbodbc12_r.dylib libdbodm12.dylib libdbtasks12_r.dylib libdbicu12_r.dylib libdbicudt12.dylib dblg[LL]12.res

Notes

For Linux and Solaris platforms, you should create a link to the .so.1 files. The link name should match the file name with the ".1" version suffix removed.
There are multithreaded (MT) versions of the ODBC driver for Linux, Unix, and Mac OS X platforms. The file names contain the "_r" suffix. Deploy these files if your application requires them.
For Windows, a driver manager is included with the operating system. For Linux, Unix, and Mac OS X, SQL Anywhere provides a driver manager. The file name begins with libdbodm12.
Note that for Windows Vista or later versions of Windows, you must include the SQL Anywhere elevated operations agent (dbelevate12.exe) which supports the privilege elevation required to register or unregister the ODBC driver. This file is only required as part of the ODBC driver install or uninstall procedure.
A language resource library file should also be included. The table above show files with the designation [LL]. There are several message files each supporting a different language. If you want to install support for different languages, you have to include the resource files for these languages. Replace [LL] with the language code (for example, en, de, jp, etc.).
For Windows, the Connect window support code (dbcon12.dll) is needed if your end users will create their own data sources, if they need to enter user IDs and passwords when connecting to the database, or if they need to display the Connect window for any other purpose.
