Hi everybody,

I need just a little hint(s).
Using 'native' freetds calls (from Linux) I'm able to get data from
a Sql server. This works fine.

Now I have to make a step forward: I need ODBC calls.

I'm porting a win32 application to Linux and I need to mantain
the current interface it has with the database. It use ODBC.

Reading the README of freetds, I read that it uses iODBC as the CLI.

So, I have downloaded the current release of iODBC and carefully
read the code you provide (./src/odbc/odbc.c).
What is not clear is:
Have I to call the iODBC API which then use the tds driver as the
odbc driver ?
If this is the case, how can I actually perform this operation ?
In which way I can instruct iODBC to use the freetds ?

There is also a reasonable probability that all this works in
a production environment ?

Thanks in advance.
