◦
◦ SQLGetConfigMode
• SQLBulkOperations
• SQLFetchScroll - supported for SQL_FETCH_NEXT attribute only
• SQLSetScrollOption
Data Types
This release of MXCS does not support the following ODBC data types. For more information about
data types, see ODBC Data Types.
• BIT
• TINYINT and TINYINT UNSIGNED
• BINARY
• VARBINARY
• LONG VARBINARY
Unsupported Functionalities
The OSS ODBC/MX Client Driver does not support the following functionalities:
• Windows-specific APIs that are used for driver installation and driver configuration.
• Dynamic DLL loading while loading OSS ODBC/MX Client Driver, other ODBC Drivers to
external data sources (for example, Oracle or SQLServer).
• Wide character support.
• Windows-styled exception handling.
• Asynchronous semantics. All calls are implemented synchronously. This implies that SQLCancel
can only be invoked on a statement handle after returning from the last invocation on the
handle, not when an operation is running. For example, a runaway query cannot be stopped
by the client application.
• Cursor library.
• Translate library.
• Applications that use windows-specific function class or methods.
• Module file caching(MFC).
Restricted ODBC API Functions
SQLBindParameter
The SQLBindParameter function has these restrictions:
• SQL_DEFAULT_PARAM is not supported for the pcbValue argument.
• The SQL_LEN_DATA_AT_EXEC(length) macro is not supported for the pcbValue argument.
SQLPutData
The SQLPutData function can send data in parts only for the SQL_LONGVARCHAR data type. For
all other data types, only the latest value in the rgbValue argument is used.
