Anybody knows how long does it take to get a CVS account? I have submitted
my
original request almost a week ago.

Thanks,

It is possible to access SQLAnywhere via the unified ODBC driver, but the
problem
is that when Apache does a fork() it duplicates all open file handles
including sockets, and we
end up with two different processes trying to write to the same socket or
same shared memory
file hence, this confuses the ASA server and ends up disconnecting clients.

With this new module, we avoid this problem by controlling when the
init/fini is done in the module.
In addition, setting up the ODBC with asa involves setting environment
variables
and using a driver manager which is not standard on UNIX and prune to
errors and build problems to
users. This new modules simplifies all that in that it links with the dblib
library (the other native interface
of SQL Any).

In addition, with the existence of this module, we can add features that
are specific to ASA such as improved
blob handling which exists in newer releases (8) of ASA.

Isn't SQL Any accessed via ODBC and/or sybase openclient?  What does the
new driver do that these don't (Not knocking the extension, just curious)?

Don't know about the sybase openclient, but if ODBC can be
circumvented with a native approach, IMHO, that would be
a good thing.
