QNX and ODBC looking for beta testers

Hi,

I have just finished ports of unixODBC (http://www.unixodbc.org) and our
ODBC-ODBC bridge client (http://www.easysoft.com/products/oob) to
QNX 6.1 x86. Hopefully there will be people who can test this.

Between them the two packages provide apps on QNX with the ODBC 3.5 API,
libs and headers, and some command line tools to check connectivity. The
unixODBC package provides a ODBC 3.5 Driver Manager, and includes a
driver for Postgres and a sinple text driver. The ODBC-ODBC Brodge
Client is a ODBC driver that can be used to connect to the
ODBC-ODBC bridge server on windows or unix boxes, and provides the QNX
application access to ODBC data sources on the remote box.

This way QNX can connect to SQL Server, Oracle, and just about any other
database with a Windows ODBC driver.

This newsgroup is mean to discuss articles posted on qdn.qnx.com web page.

Ok, thanks.

I do need to create a HOWTO, so that could be a article I guess :slight_smile:
