To maintain compatibility with Adaptive Server and previous versions of the MDI Database Gateway, all CSPs accomplish the same tasks as their counterparts in the other systems. Areas in which DirectConnect differs are as follows:
The result sets returned conform to ODBC requirements.
The result sets returned conform to ASE/CIS requirements.
When a CSP requirements conflict arises, the following precedence rules are used, in order of importance:
Make the results conform to ODBC specifications.
Make the results conform to ASE/CIS specifications.
Make the behavior of the procedure conform to its counterpart in Adaptive Server.
