After working around some problems, my test situation worked perfectly.
Thanks for the hint!
These were the problems I encountered:
1. SQLGetInfo(SQL_DBMS_NAME) returns "PostgreSQL35W", and
SQLGetInfo(SQL_DBMS_VER) returns a number in the 07.30 range, while I'm
running PostgreSQL 8.1. I think that "PostgreSQL35W" is fine for a
SQL_DRIVER_NAME, but SQL_DBMS_NAME should be simply "PostgreSQL", and
SQL_DBMS_VER should return the DBMS version, not the driver version
(which should be returned by SQL_DRIVER_VER).
2. I also encountered an access violation while exiting. The call stack
was not very informative:
ntdll.dll!_RtlpWaitForCriticalSection@4() + 0x5b
ntdll.dll!_RtlEnterCriticalSection@4() + 0x46
psqlodbc35w.dll!023a097e()
ntdll.dll!_RtlpFreeDebugInfo@4() + 0x57
ntdll.dll!_RtlDeleteCriticalSection@4() + 0x78
If you want me to try this with a debug-compiled psqlodbc35w, just say
the word!
Cheers,
Bart
