After analysing the issue, I found that the system, on which postgres was running, was overloaded. Its CPU usage was almost 100 % and may be thats why it wasn't responding to
the SQLDriverConnect request . Later on the system (on which postgres was running) was rebooted . Now my questions are :
1, why SQLDriverConnect function call got hung.
2. Why didn't it simply return with some error code when it wasn't able to connect to postgres ( as it wasnt responding because of system load.)
3. Why it still didnt return when the system was rebooted ??
4. What can be done to make SQLDriverConnect function return with error in case it is not able to connect to postgres for whatsoever reason.
5. Can connection timeout be set through SQLSetConnectAttr, SQL_ATTR_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT to make SQLDriverConnect return after certain amount of time in case there
is no response from postgres ?? how can this be done ??
6. Is there any other better way to overcome this issue ??
Thanks...
