NetXMS Support Forum

Hello, Victor!
I am trying to compile netxms 0.2.20 witch odbc support. during compilation the system says:
odbc.cpp: In function 'void* DrvSelect(ODBCDRV_CONN*, WCHAR*, DWORD*)':
odbc.cpp:250: error: cannot convert 'const WCHAR*' to 'const wchar_t*' for argument '1' to 'wchar_t* wcsdup(const wchar_t*)'
odbc.cpp: In function 'LONG DrvGetFieldLength(ODBCDRV_QUERY_RESULT*, int, int)':
odbc.cpp:284: error: cannot convert 'WCHAR*' to 'const wchar_t*' for argument '1' to 'size_t wcslen(const wchar_t*)'
odbc.cpp: In function 'WCHAR* DrvGetField(ODBCDRV_QUERY_RESULT*, int, int, WCHAR*, int)':
odbc.cpp:304: error: cannot convert 'WCHAR*' to 'wchar_t*' for argument '1' to 'wchar_t* wcsncpy(wchar_t*, const wchar_t*, size_t)'
make[5]: *** [odbc.lo] Error 1
What can be the cause of this?

Interesting that netxms 0.2.19 compiles without problems.

Hi!

We have changed UNICODE support in 0.2.20 - this should be the cause. I'll take a look at this today. Could you please post config.log here or send it to [email protected]?

Best regards,
Victor

Here is config.log

Main problem is to find Linux ODBC driver for MS SQL. Second is to configure unixODBC.  There are some useful links from unixODBC site:
http://www.unixodbc.org/odbcinst.html
http://www.unixodbc.org/config.html

Please note that FreeTDS mosy likely will not work because it doesn't support UNICODE ODBC interface.

Best regards,
Victor
