Re: PHP 4.0 Bug #9397 Updated: odbc_setoption() cannot accept string value (patch included)

Dear kara, I am sorry for not specifying it clearly last time. SQL_EXTENSION_NAME is used specifically for our database, DBMaker. We are developers for this database and we have also have developed php driver for our database. Because of some specific features of our database, we really need to let users who use our database be able to set this kind of options. Unfortunately, ODBC 2.x does not allow setting attributes with string-type values. Since the ODBC version currently used in php is, as you can see from the source code, 2.x. We really cannot use SQLSetStmtAttr() provided by ODBC 3. We didn't use HAVE_DBMAKER ifdefs because we think other databases might be glad to see this, too. kara@php.net ¼¶¼g©ó¤å³¹ <20010222163525.28452.qmail@php2.chek.com>... >ID: 9397 >Updated by: kara >Reported By: clin@lion.syscom.com.tw >Old-Status: Open >Status: Feedback >Bug Type: ODBC related >Assigned To: >Comments: > >In ODBC 2.x it is not possible to pass string values to >SQLSetStmtOption().
