The Adaptive Server Plug-in for Sybase Central manages various Adaptive Server Enterprise products. In versions earlier than 15.0.3, the Adaptive Server plug-in ran on Sybase Central 4.3. In 15.0.3 the Adaptive Server plug-in runs on Sybase Central 6.00. These features are new to version 15.0.3, Sybase Central 6.00:
A Search tool helps you find objects displayed by plug-ins. Select View | Search Pane to select objects according to the plug-in they belong to.
The Connection Profile Description, Import, and Export options allow you to add a text description to a profile connection. You can also import and export connection profiles to and from files, allowing them to be shared among users.
Better support for Windows Vista.
These features are new to the version 15.0.3 Adaptive Server plug-in.
Create objects by selecting the Add icon from a context-sensitive toolbar, located below the Sybase Central context bar, which in turn is under the standard toolbar.
Stored procedures and SQLJ procedures are located in the Procedures folder.
Scalar functions, or user-defined functions, are now supported, and are located, along with SQLJ functions, in the Functions folder. They are also documented in the Adaptive Server plug-in Help.
Utilities items are now accessible from the menu on the context-sensitive toolbar, or Context Bar, under the Standard Toolbar.
DBISQL11, which was previously shipped as part of Adaptive Server plug-in, is now a separate product, version 11.0, and includes these enhanced features:
The number of multiple result sets is no longer limited to 10.
The login dialog for Adaptive Server now retains and displays the last five connected server names.
DBISQL11, or interactive SQL, now supports connection favorites, which are similar to connection profiles.
The SQL statements pane now contains line numbers.
The Results pane now shows using select all, insert/update/delete SQL statements, and sorting and generating, from selected rows.
