Thread: Using Which Driver [correct]
Hi Kathy,
psqlodbc-08.00.0102 is the official ODBC driver of the PostgreSQL community. This driver is also partially 3.x compliant whereas the driver provided by unixODBC is ODBC 2 compliant. Also psqlodbc-08.00.0102 has lot of bug fixes gone into it.
I believe the ODBC driver by unixODBC is little bit old.
I would suggest you to go and have your hands on libpq enabled ODBC driver.
Regards,
Siva Kumar.K

Subject: [ODBC] Using Which Driver [correct]
Dear all,
I had installed Postgresql 8.0.3 as database server under Redhat Linux 9.0.
Also, I had installed unixODBC 2.2.11 and psqlodbc.so (generated from psqlodbc-08.00.0102.tar.gz) under Redhat Linux 9.0 as client.
When I want to make ODBC connection to the database, I don't know which driver should be used.
unixODBC 2.2.11 provides
libodbcpsql.so.2.0.0
libodbcpsqlS.so.1.0.0
From psqlodbc-08.00.0102.tar.gz, I installed
psqlodbc.so
Please provide me more information on the difference of these 2 driver. And, from psqlodbc-08.00.0102.tar.gz, I did not find psqlodbcS.so while unixODBC provides it.
I know that libodbcpsqlS.so is the Setup library for Postgresql. Am I right? And, why psqlodbc-08.00.0102.tar.gz does not provide this library?
Thank for your kindly help!
Kathy

Of which 08.01.0103 is the latest, though if you can wait a couple of days, I expect there will be a new one.
