8 16 syBase ase data sOuRce adMinistRatOR ASE ODBC Driver/OLE DB Provider Connection Properties The format used to describe the connection properties includes the name of the property as used in the ODBC Driver administrator, followed by the actual property name used in connection strings, surrounded in square brackets. Example: Enable High Availability [hasession/HASession]: [Descriptive text explaining the parameter]. Default [is|=] value. The connection property name isn’t case sensitive. Lower case is equivalent to the conventional upper case for initial letter of each word in the property. Words must be concatenated when the property is used in the connection string for ODBC driver connection strings. The same goes with OLE DB Provider connection properties, unless you use the generic properties such as “Initial Catalog”, “User ID”, etc. Example ODBC Connection strings: AseConnectionString = “{Driver = Adaptive Server Enterprise};UID=sa;PWD=xxx;Database=testdb;Server=asehost; Port=5000;AnsiNull=1;UseCursor=1;DynamicPrepare=1;…..” Another way to do this: AseConnectionString = “{Driver = Adaptive Server Enterprise};uid=sa;pwd=xxx;database=testdb;server=asehost; port=5000;ansinull=1;usecursor=1;dynamicprepare=1;…..” Also, you can replace {Driver=…} with DSN=ase_DSN and include other properties to over-ride DSN settings. Example OLE DB Provider Connection strings: OleDbConnectionString = “Provider=ASEOLEDB;Server=aseHost;Port=5000;Initial Catalog=testdb;User ID=sa;Password=xxx….” OleDbConnectionString = “Provider=ASEOLEDB;Data Source=ase1502;User ID=sa;….” The Sybase ASE Data Source Administrator (sybdrvadm.exe is a tool provided in the SDK under %SYBASE%\ DataAccess\bin or %SYBASE%\DataAccess64\bin for Winx64) so you can create OLE DB Data Sources. These are stored in this same location by default as a text file with name of the Data Source followed by the extension “sod”. The Data Source name without the “sod” extension is used in the “Data Source” connection property.
This enables an application to reference the OLE DB data source through the “Data Source” connection property. Please note: The other panels are captured when configuring an ASE ODBC Driver with ODBC Driver Administrator tool. The panels are the same as for the Sybase ASE Data Source Administrator. There are slight differences in how the values are presented for selection. Shown here is the General tab from the Sybase ASE Data Source Administrator configurator tool: Compare it to the next page with the same panel used to configure the ODBC driver. (Service Name and BackEnd Type are not available with OLE DB Provider.) 9
