Re: [Rlib-users] rlib_add_datasource_odbc arguments in 1.3.1

[Bob D. <bd...@si...>]

The input name is used later when you add queries to RLIB.

RLIB can use multiple datasources at a time(mysql, odbc, postgresql,
ect)

Or multiple of the same.. say a mysql db on server X and a mysqldb on
server Y

rlib_add_query_as(INPUT NAME (from the datasource), query string, query
name);

What's a DSN?

And what database are you going to use.  They all don't implement ODBC
the same
