Hi

How can i get that code compiled and running?
There are some sample program files in /freetds/src/ctlib/unitests.

Do i need to set some variables?

Regards,
MS

Rajani, 

FreeTDS 0.60 exports dbdead, lowercase.  If (your file?) common.c includes
the FreeTDS 0.53 header files, it will try to import DBDEAD from libsybdb.
 If linked to the FreeTDS 0.60 libraries, it will fail, producing the
above message.  

This change was made to improve binary compatibility with Sybase's
libraries.
