Deploying embedded SQL clients
The following table shows which files are needed for embedded SQL clients.
| Description | Windows | UNIX |
|---|---|---|
| Interface library | dblib9.dll | libdblib9.so, libdbtasks9.so |
| Language resource library | dblgen9.dll | dblgen9.res |
| Connect dialog | dbcon9.dll | N/A |
The network ports DLL is not required if the client is working only with the personal database server.
If the client application uses an ODBC data source to hold the connection parameters, your end user must have a working ODBC installation. Instructions for deploying ODBC are included in the Microsoft ODBC SDK.
For more information on deploying ODBC information, see Deploying ODBC clients.
The Connect dialog is needed if your end users will be creating their own data sources, if they will need to enter user IDs and passwords when connecting to the database, or if they need to display the Connect dialog for any other purpose.
For multi-threaded applications on UNIX, use libdblib9_r.so and libdbtasks9_r.so.
