Thread: ODBC - configure

ODBC - configure

From

Hi,

Ok, now I have a standalone driver source tree. My problem is that it is
based upon ./configure. Can someone give me a hand on changeing the
configure? I am pretty sure that I will need to make a few
changes/enhancements to it such as;

- switch to configure for unixODBC
- unixODBC flag for ifdefs
- some include and lib file changes
- install changes???

I can then go ahead and make any source enhancements that may be
required... and I am sure there will be some.

Anyone....

You may as well tackle the source code first, and get a good build
before we go mucking with configure. You can see from the existing
code how to bracket things with #ifdef, so choose your flag and then
go to it. We can add something like "--enable-unixodbc" to
configure.in later.

Pass the symbols in from CFLAGS in the Makefile, or set up a
Makefile.custom which I'm pretty sure would get used in the standalone
environment:

# Makefile.custom
CFLAGS+=-DUNIXODBC

Good luck.
