Open Client software requires specific information to function correctly. Configuration is the process of setting up your system to make this information available.
Open Client uses configuration information to:
Initialize the Open Client (except for DB-Library) application
To ensure that your application has access to the most
recent features, set the version to CS_CURRENT_VERSION.
Establish a connection with Adaptive Server application
Except where noted, information in this document applies
to both
DB-Library and Client-Library.
Specifically, DB-Library does not use environment variables to determine initial localization values and does not examine the libtcl.cfg file. However, DB-Library does examine the SYBASE and DSQUERY environment variables.
For more information about DB-Library, see the Open Client DB-Library/C Reference Manual.
