Open Client and Open Server software requires specific information to function correctly. Configuration is the process of setting up your system to make this information available.
Open Client and Open Server use configuration information to:
Initialize the Open Client (except for DB-Library) or Open Server 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 or an Open 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.
