[snip: Chris wants to have an ODBC driver for FreeBSD]
The easiest way to try this is to download the complete CVS source tree and
configure the TOOLS (maybe someone already did this for FreeBSD, please
check the list archive).
The targets for the ODBC driver are:
libsqlod: which finally assembles the libraries libsqlod.so and libsqlod.a
odbc: additionally header files for compiling own applications for the ODBC driver
are copied into usr/incl and a program (odbcreg) is made that configures an
odbc.ini file under /usr/spool/sql/ini/
The option -e enables debug information, so "imf -e odbc" will be something you
will start after the tools are running.
Please see http://www.sapdb.org/7.4/develop/sap_db_cvs.htm for getting the sources.
The main part of the ODBC sources are in the directory pa. It uses many routines from
the directory pr which also is used by the precompiler. Below that a runtime
environment
layer is used, which is adapted for different operating systems. I don't know, what
changes
may be necessary for FreeBSD.
Probably, http://sapdb.2scale.net/moin.cgi/PortingSapdb has also valuable information
for you.
Greetings Thomas
