lmemsm<p>I'm currently working on trying to build <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/UnixODBC" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>UnixODBC</span></a>, <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/FreeTDS" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FreeTDS</span></a> and <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/PSQLODBC" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>PSQLODBC</span></a> on <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/AIX" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AIX</span></a> from source. Found out it builds on Windows as well, so I'm building and testing it on AIX, Windows and Linux platforms. Would love to hear about others experiences using FreeTDS. <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/AskFedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AskFedi</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/AskFediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AskFediverse</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/FLOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FLOSS</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>OpenSource</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/FreeSoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FreeSoftware</span></a></p>

lmemsm<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@dff" class="u-url mention">@<span>dff</span></a></span> Searching the <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/unixODBC" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>unixODBC</span></a> site, it looks like there was a text/#csv <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/ODBC" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ODBC</span></a> driver called <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/SQI" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>SQI</span></a> with LGPL license. I'm not seeing the code in the latest version of unixODBC even though the driver is listed at their site. However, much older versions of unixODBC had a txt subdirectory under Drivers with the code. Wonder if anyone's using this driver and how hard it would be to get it built and working. <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/AskFedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AskFedi</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/AskFediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AskFediverse</span></a></p>
Osunderdog<p>I spent part of this week explaining <a href="https://allthingstech.social/tags/unixODBC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>unixODBC</span></a> to someone that couldn't get it to work. Lots or learning curve there for a first time Unix user. <br>I definitely picked up on an undercurrent question from this unwilling pupal: "Can't you just get this working for me so I can focus on my shiny <a href="https://allthingstech.social/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LLM</span></a> stuff?"<br>My response: "Nope, I'll teach you to fish, but I'm not going to feed you fish."</p>
