NAME

6       unixODBC - An ODBC implementation for Unix
7
8

DESCRIPTION

10       ODBC is an open specification for providing application developers with
11       a predictable API with which  to  access  Data  Sources.  Data  Sources
12       include SQL Servers and any Data Source with an ODBC Driver.
13
14       The  unixODBC  Project  goals are to develop and promote unixODBC to be
15       the definitive standard for ODBC on non MS Windows platforms.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

19       ODBCSYSINI
20              Overloads path  to  unixODBC  configuration  files.  By  default
21              equals to '/etc'.
22
23
24       ODBCINSTINI
25              Overloads the name of the drivers configuration file. It is rel‐
26              ative to ODBCSYSINI and by default set to 'odbcinst.ini'.
27
28
29       ODBCINSTUI
30              Overloads the library name  for  UI.  The  final  name  that  is
31              searched  for is evaluated as "lib$ODBCINSTUI". By default it is
32              set to 'odbcinstQ4', so the resulting library  name  is  'libod‐
33              bcinstQ4'.
34
35
36       ODBCSEARCH
37              Overloads  the  configuration  mode and determines where to look
38              for configuration files. Must be set to one of  ODBC_SYSTEM_DSN,
39              ODBC_USER_DSN  or  ODBC_BOTH_DSN  (the  last  one is the default
40              value).
41
42
43       ODBCINI
44              Overloads the path to user configuration file. By default it  is
45              set to "~/.odbc.ini".
