Yes, it is worth our while. I have on my to-do list to get the latest drop
from CVS and test. We already have a simple test case. Just haven't had
the time to do the download, build, test.

Will provide more info when available.

THANKS!

I don't know, Tom. I doubt it. I hope the ODBC folks will answer you
definitively, and that someone will contribute a unit test.

AIUI, the driver manager is a thin layer over the ODBC driver, whose main
purpose is to isolate the various driver configuration idiosyncrasies from
the application.

That's our goal.

If "it" is output parameters in prepared ODBC statements, then, I'm afraid
it only almost works. I'm happy to be corrected.

Is it worth your while to put together a unit test? That would answer the
question, and if the answer is "no, still broken", we'd at least have a
baseline measure.
