Connecting issues

Hi

I have en application written in Visual Studio 2008 where I use CDatabase to connect to MariaDB via ODBC. When I try and connect I get an exception with the text "Invalid information type"

I have tried alot of ODBC connect strings for instance: DRIVER={MariaDB ODBC 1.0 Driver};SERVER=localhost;DATABASE=mydb;UID=test;PWD= or DSN=mydb

When I create the DSN every think looks ok. If I change to use {MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver} it works fine.

After some digging I found that it looks like it is because VS2008 use: SQLGetInfo( SQL_ODBC_API_CONFORMANCE ...) This was deprecated in "ODBC 3.x" but is there any chance this will be supported ?

Thanks for your help.

Answer

This looks like it was fixed in ODBC-15
