ODBC accomplishes DBMS independence by using an ODBC driver as a translation layer between the application and the DBMS. The application uses ODBC functions through an ODBC driver manager with which it is linked, and the driver passes the query to the DBMS. An ODBC driver can be thought of as analogous to a printer driver or other driver ...
Free and open-source software portal; unixODBC is an open-source project that implements the Open Database Connectivity API. [2] The code is provided under the GNU GPL/LGPL and can be built and used on many different operating systems, including most versions of Unix, Linux, Mac OS X, IBM OS/2 and Microsoft's Interix.
ODBC Administrator was a 32-bit utility in the Mac OS X operating system for administering ODBC, which enables interaction with ODBC-compliant data sources. Features included connection pooling, trace log creation, and ODBC driver management, among other administration features.
The Data Access Manager (DAM) was a database access API for the classic Mac OS, introduced in 1991 as an extension to System 7.Similar in concept to ODBC, DAM saw little use and was eventually dropped in the late 1990s.
iODBC emerged from a cooperative effort between OpenLink Software and Ke Jin.OpenLink Software produced a Driver Manager-less ODBC SDK that it branded as Universal DataBase Connectivity in 1993, because of the sporadic nature of shared library implementations across Unix platforms.
Silver Surfer, as it was known during early development, was developed by Laurent Ribardière in 1984. Following negotiations with Ribardiere it was planned that Apple Inc. (formerly Apple Computer Inc) would publish the software but Apple canceled the plan, reportedly due to pressure from other potential database publishers who claimed that if Apple had their own "brand" database, third party ...
(Reuters) -The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on Tuesday it had opened a probe into about 2.6 million Tesla vehicles after reports of some crashes linked to its "Actually ...
On the client end, DAL was originally accessed directly through a system extension (named simply "DAL" in System 7), but it was later rolled into a single ODBC-like driver layer, the Data Access Manager (DAM). DAM was ODBC-like in concept, but did not include the SQL layers, it was strictly a system for sending "opaque" queries and receiving ...
