Attribute Conformance

The following table indicates the conformance level of each ODBC environment attribute, where this is well defined.

Function Conformance level
SQL_ATTR_CONNECTION_POOLING --[1]
SQL_ATTR_CP_MATCH --[1]
SQL_ATTR_ODBC_VER Core
SQL_ATTR_OUTPUT_NTS --[1]

[1]   This is an optional feature and as such is not part of the conformance levels.

The following table indicates the conformance level of each ODBC connection attribute, where this is well defined.

Function Conformance level
SQL_ATTR_ACCESS_MODE Core
SQL_ATTR_ASYNC_ENABLE Level 1/Level 2[1]
SQL_ATTR_AUTO_IPD Level 2
SQL_ATTR_AUTOCOMMIT Level 1
SQL_ATTR_CONNECTION_DEAD Level 1
SQL_ATTR_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT Level 2
SQL_ATTR_CURRENT_CATALOG Level 2
SQL_ATTR_LOGIN_TIMEOUT Level 2
SQL_ATTR_ODBC_CURSORS Core
SQL_ATTR_PACKET_SIZE Level 2
SQL_ATTR_QUIET_MODE Core
SQL_ATTR_TRACE Core
SQL_ATTR_TRACEFILE Core
SQL_ATTR_TRANSLATE_LIB Core
SQL_ATTR_TRANSLATE_OPTION Core
SQL_ATTR_TXN_ISOLATION Level 1/Level 2[2]

[1]   Applications that support connection-level asynchrony (required for Level 1) must support setting this attribute to SQL_TRUE by calling SQLSetConnectAttr; the attribute need not be settable to a value other than its default value through SQLSetStmtAttr. Applications that support statement-level asynchrony (required for Level 2) must support setting this attribute to SQL_TRUE using either function.

[2]   For Level 1 interface conformance, the driver must support one value in addition to the driver-defined default value (available by calling SQLGetInfo with the SQL_DEFAULT_TXN_ISOLATION option). For Level 2 interface conformance, the driver must also support SQL_TXN_SERIALIZABLE.

The following table indicates the conformance level of each ODBC statement attribute, where this is well defined.

Function Conformance level
SQL_ATTR_APP_PARAM_DESC Core
SQL_ATTR_APP_ROW_DESC Core
SQL_ATTR_ASYNC_ENABLE Level 1/Level 2[1]

SQL_ATTR_SIMULATE_CURSOR Level 2
SQL_ATTR_USE_BOOKMARKS Level 2

[1]   Applications that support connection-level asynchrony (required for Level 1) must support setting this attribute to SQL_TRUE by calling SQLSetConnectAttr; the attribute need not be settable to a value other than its default value through SQLSetStmtAttr. Applications that support statement-level asynchrony (required for Level 2) must support setting this attribute to SQL_TRUE using either function.

[2]   For Level 2 interface conformance, the driver must support SQL_CONCUR_READ_ONLY and at least one other value.

[3]   For Level 1 interface conformance, the driver must support SQL_CURSOR_FORWARD_ONLY and at least one other value. For Level 2 interface conformance, the driver must support all values defined in this document.
