Does the SQLCODE get set to some non-0 value if an ODBC connection cannot be
made or is unavailable?

 

Situation:  Some of my programs SCONNECT to DB2 and Oracle databases.  In
some instances the connection is unavailable if only for a short period of
time.  I would like to test for connection availability.  If it's not
available I could then PAUSE for 30 seconds or whatever and then loop back
and try the connection again.

 

If SQLCODE doesn't get set is there some other way to test for the
connection?

 

Thanks and have a phenomenal day!
