You can build applications without using an ODBC Driver Manager. The Adaptive Server ODBC Driver is a shared dynamic library with platform specific names.
Platform |
Library file |
Location |
|---|---|---|
Windows 32-bit |
sybdrvodb.dll |
%SYBASE%\DataAccess\ODBC\dll |
Windows 64-bit |
sybdrvodb64.dl |
%SYBASE%\DataAccess64\ODBC\dll |
UNIX 32-bit |
libsybdrvodb.so |
$SYBASE/DataAccess/ODBC/lib |
UNIX 64-bit |
libsybdrvodb.so |
$SYBASE/DataAccess64/ODBC/lib |
Linking an ODBC application with the Adaptive
Server ODBC Driver on Windows
Add sybdrvodb.lib to Additional Dependencies in the Linker/Input properties and add <aseodbc_dir> to Additional Library Directories in Linker/General properties for your project.
When deploying your application, verify that %SYBASE%\DataAccess\ODBC\dll (for 32-bit ODBC drivers) or %SYBASE%\DataAccess64\ODBC\dll (for 64-bit ODBC drivers), the directory containing the Adaptive Server ODBC Driver shared library, is included in your system path.
Linking an ODBC application
with the Adaptive Server ODBC Driver
on UNIX
Pass the -lsybdrvodb and -L<aseodbc_dir> flags to the linker.
When deploying your application, verify that $SYBASE/DataAccess/ODBC/lib (for 32-bit ODBC drivers) or $SYBASE/DataAccess64/ODBC/lib (for 64-bit ODBC drivers), the directory containing the Adaptive Server ODBC Driver shared library, is included in your library path. The library path variable for your platform is:
On HP HP-UX Itanium: SHLIB_PATH
On IBM AIX: LIBRARY_PATH
On Linux and Solaris: LD_LIBRARY_PATH
