Thread: Four part names

Four part names

From

I’ve noticed that the current release of the driver doesn’t support four part names. According to some earlier postings earlier this month, it sounds like Dave might have fixed this, but there has been no release since his commit.

 

Can someone confirm whether this indeed has been fixed as I can’t get the current CVS to work.

 

I’ve been able to use MSSQL to create a linked server through this driver, and have been able to do simple selects with OPENQUERY, but to really make this usable, four part name support would be really nice.

 

Thanks a lot. This driver will be a life-saver!

The fix was to stop the driver incorrectly reporting we support 4 part names, which we definitely do not, and most
likelynever will (because of the way a single backend connects to a single database).
