Generally SQLAPI++ ships with some libraries already compiled. However we always recommend you recompile SQLAPI++ with the C++ compiler you use for your project/application. You should use appropriate batch file located in the src subdirectory of SQLAPI++ distribution (sqlapi_msvc.bat, sqlapi_bcc.bat, sqlapi_mingw.bat, sqlapi_gcc, sqlapi_ss). These files also allow to modify SQLAPI++ build options. Review the batch before you execute it - you may need to configure compiler environment and SQLAPI++ build options.
Build options should be passed with 'make' tool command line.
General build options
- CFG - specify what type of the configuration should be build (possible values: release, debug)
- CFG_LINK - specify the build procedure output type (possible values: dynamic, static)
- SA_DEFINE - always use SA_NO_TRIAL to avoid trial exception and messages
- SQLAPI_OS - should be specified for Linux/Unix platforms only (possible values: SQLAPI_LINUX(default), SQLAPI_SOLARIS, SQLAPI_AIX, SQLAPI_HPUX, SQLAPI_OSX, SQLAPI_SCOOSR5)
- SA_64BIT - should be set if you'd like to build 64-bit SQLAPI++ binaries
- SA_32BIT - should be set if you'd like to build 32-bit SQLAPI++ binaries
