[Help-glpk] Re: ODBC support for GLPK

[glpk xypron]

Hello Andrew,

my use of the word "native" was misleading.

My code does not contain any proprietary portion. When compiling for Windows 
with option --enable-odbc32 a dynamic load library (odbc32.dll) will be loaded 
when running the code to provide ODBC functionality. When executing code under 
Windows this always relies on system functions provided by Microsoft being 
used. You cannot even display a single character without calling Windows DLLs.

The function calls used are defined by ISO/IEC 9075-3:2003 and are the same 
whether You call iODBC or unixODBC under Linux or the ODBC32.dll provided by 
Windows. The only difference being which dynamic load library provides the 
functions.

Best regards

Heinrich
