<para>
|
|
The <application>unixODBC</application> package is an Open Source
|
|
ODBC (Open DataBase Connectivity) sub-system and an ODBC SDK for Linux, Mac
|
|
OSX, and UNIX. ODBC is an open specification for providing application
|
|
developers with a predictable API with which to access data sources. Data
|
|
sources include optional SQL Servers and any data source with an ODBC Driver.
|
|
<application>unixODBC</application> contains the following components used
|
|
to assist with the manipulation of ODBC data sources: a driver manager, an
|
|
installer library and command line tool, command line tools to help install
|
|
a driver and work with SQL, drivers and driver setup libraries.

<para>
|

The files in <filename class='directory'>/etc/unixODBC</filename>
|
|
are meant to be configured by the system administrator (or the ODBC site
|
|
administrator if appropriate privileges are granted to
|
|
<filename class='directory'>/etc/unixODBC</filename>). These files
|
|
are not meant to be directly edited. The ODBC installer library is
|
|
responsible for reading and writing the
|
|
<application>unixODBC</application> config files.

Unfortunately, there are not many <command>man</command>, or any
|
|
<command>info</command> pages for the various programs available in the
|
|
<application>unixODBC</application> package. Along with the information
|
|
in the <quote>Short Descriptions</quote> below and the documentation
|
|
installed in <filename
|
|
class='directory'>/usr/share/doc/unixODBC-&unixodbc-version;</filename>,
|
|
there are many <filename>README</filename> files throughout the source
|
|
tree where the use and functionality of the programs can be found.
|
|
Additionally, you can use the parameter <option>-?</option> for syntax
|
|
and usage information. Lastly, the <application>unixODBC</application>
|
|
web site at <ulink url="http://www.unixodbc.org/"/> has very good
|
|
information.
