Is it possible to develop ODBC program on AIX?

[Laurence]

Hi there,

I know it is possible to develop ODBC program on Windows. Just install
DB2 Client, then using Windows ODBC manager to configure.

But, is it possible to develop ODBC program on AIX? Just only install
DB2 Client, too? And, how to configure? I can't find any ODBC manager
on AIX to do that...

Thanks in advance,

Laurence

In other words, does DB2 Client for AIX contains ODBC driver, and lack
of ODBC Manager? I have to install ODBC Manager on AIX, sush as
UNIXODBC?

Thanks in advance~

That's correct. See [1] for details on configuring DB2's ODBC driver
with unixODBC.

There are various 3rd party ODBC managers for AIX (DataDirect has one,
if I recall correctly).
