ODBC Call-level Interface
The Ingres ODBC Call-level Interface (CLI) provides access to the ODBC application environment without the need to use third-party software. It is installed when you install the Ingres ODBC Driver and is supported on all platforms on which Ingres runs.
The Ingres ODBC CLI performs the following functions:
• Optionally determines driver characteristics from ODBC configuration files
• Loads and unloads the ODBC driver into and from application memory
• Maps the driver manager API to the driver API
• Performs basic error checking
• Provides thread safety
• Provides ODBC tracing
• Provides function templates, type definitions, and constant definitions for ODBC applications
