iODBC Driver Manager
Administrator SDK

iODBC Driver Manger Administrator SDK is a suite of apps for independent open database connectivity. Commonly considered to be specific to linux or unix platforms, iODBC is a truly platform-independent open source implementation of odbc.

The iODBC effort is managed via the iODBC project, http://www.iodbc.org, which is maintained and supported by Openlink Software. iODBC and ODBC are 100% compatible. Thus, migration of ODBC-compliant applications and drivers across platforms does not require wholesale rewrites.

The iODBC SDKs for the Mac provide support for Cocoa, Carbon, Darwin, and Classic development. Like ODBC on the Windows platform, iODBC comprises the following:

• Runtime resources
• ODBC Drivers -- Simply, drivers that implement the ODBC API.
• iODBC Driver Manager -- The driver manager is implemented as a framework under OS X; a shared library under Darwin, Linux, UNIX and OpenVMS; and a code fragment under Mac System 9.
• iODBC Administrator -- iODBC provides the native GUI-based OpenLink ODBC Aadministrator for Mac System 9 and OS X. The HTTP-based OpenLink ODBC Administrator is also available for all iODBC-supported client platforms except the Classic Mac OS.
• Development resources
• iODBC SDK -- Used by developers for the development of ODBC-compliant database applications and drivers, the iODBC SDK includes all necessary header files and shared and static link libraries, as well as the library sources.

• Added new Cocoa-based dialogs for OS X, which will allow 64-bit applications to use the standard login and setup dialogs from the iODBCinst framework
• Added 64-bit version of the iODBC Administrator to configure and test DSNs on drivers that are only available in 64-bit format
