INF: Using DBLIBRARY in a threaded application

ID: Q151607

The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft SQL Server version 6.0

SUMMARY

There are a few tips to be aware of when creating a threaded DBLIBRARY application.


MORE INFORMATION

  1. Make sure you call the dbinit and dbexit functions only once on your application.


  2. Be sure to use per process error and message handling.See dbprocerrhandle and dbprocmsghandle for more details.

    If you use global error and message handlers you may need to synchronize access in your error and message handler routines.


  3. Make sure to call dbsetmaxprocs if you are going to have more than 25 connections open.


  4. Be sure you are compiling/linking with the multi-threaded C/C++ runtime libraries. By default a Visual C/C++ project is linked with the single threaded runtime libraries.


  5. If you use the same LOGINREC to open multiple connections, access to the LOGINREC must be serialized.
