26.1. MySQL Connector/ODBC
MySQL provides support for ODBC by means of MySQL Connector/ODBC,
the family of MyODBC drivers. This is the reference for the
Connector/ODBC product family of MyODBC drivers that provide ODBC
3.5x compliant access to the MySQL Database System. It teaches you
how to install MyODBC and how to use it. There is also information
about common programs that are known to work with MyODBC and answers
to some of the most frequently asked questions about MyODBC.
This reference applies to MyODBC 3.51. You can find a manual for an
older version of MyODBC in the binary or source distribution for
that version.
This is a reference to the MySQL ODBC drivers, not a general ODBC
reference. For more information about ODBC, refer to
https://www.microsoft.com/data/.
The application development part of this reference assumes a good
working knowledge of C, general DBMS knowledge, and finally, but not
least, familiarity with MySQL. For more information about MySQL
functionality and its syntax, refer to
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/.
