DESCRIPTION
ODBC is an open specification for providing application developers with
a predictable API with which to access Data Sources. Data Sources
include SQL Servers and any Data Source with an ODBC Driver.
The unixODBC Project goals are to develop and promote unixODBC to be
the definitive standard for ODBC on non MS Windows platforms.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
ODBCSYSINI
Overloads path to unixODBC configuration files. By default
equals to '/etc'.
ODBCINSTINI
Overloads the name of the drivers configuration file. It is rel‐
ative to ODBCSYSINI and by default set to 'odbcinst.ini'.
ODBCINSTUI
Overloads the library name for UI. The final name that is
searched for is evaluated as "lib$ODBCINSTUI". By default it is
set to 'odbcinstQ4', so the resulting library name is 'libod‐
bcinstQ4'.
ODBCSEARCH
Overloads the configuration mode and determines where to look
for configuration files. Must be set to one of ODBC_SYSTEM_DSN,
ODBC_USER_DSN or ODBC_BOTH_DSN (the last one is the default
value).
ODBCINI
Overloads the path to user configuration file. By default it is
set to "~/.odbc.ini".
