New iAnywhere JDBC driver This robust and high-performance JDBC driver enjoys the benefits of ODBC data sources and the Command Sequence client/server protocol. It is an alternative to the jConnect JDBC driver.
For information on the iAnywhere JDBC driver and choosing a JDBC driver, see Adaptive Server Anywhere Programming Guide.
The iAnywhere JDBC driver is now the default driver for DBISQL (Java) connections.
The jConnect driver is the default driver for the IQ plug-in to Sybase Central. The iAnywhere JDBC driver is the default driver for the iAnywhere plug-in to Sybase Central.
You may use whichever driver works best for your Sybase Central and Interactive SQL connections.
An earlier version of the iAnywhere JDBC driver was
called the JDBC-ODBC Bridge.
JAR file name for internal JDBC driver changed (behavior change) The internal JDBC driver classes are now installed as a JAR file named ASAJRT instead of ASAJDBC.
ODBC_DISTINGUISH_CHAR_AND_VARCHAR option The ODBC_DISTINGUISH_CHAR_AND_VARCHAR option controls how the Adaptive Server Anywhere ODBC driver describes CHAR columns. For more information, see “ODBC_DISTINGUISH_CHAR_AND_VARCHAR option” in Sybase IQ Reference Manual.
