Method Odbc.connect_lock()
- Method
connect_lock
int(0..1) connect_lock(void|int enable)
- Description
Enable or disable a mutex that serializes all ODBC SQLConnect
calls (i.e. when ODBC connections are created). This lock might be
necessary to work around bugs in ODBC drivers.
- Parameter enable
Enables the mutex if nonzero, disables it otherwise. The state
is not changed if this argument is left out.
- Returns
The old state of the flag.
- Note
This is currently enabled by default due to bugs in the current
FreeTDS library (version 0.63), but that might change if the
demand for this kludge ceases in the future. Therefore, if this
setting is important to you then always set it explicitly.
Hopefully most users don't need to bother with it.
