FYI, MS SQL Server works fine within Turbine using
a commercial JDBC driver. Not my first choice, but
we will transfer the cost of the driver to our final
customers, so it is their choice. Many thanks to
Nissim Karpenstein for his help with this.
I also wanted to let you guys know I added a new
DB adaptor for MSSQL. This thing simply extends
the Sybase one, and the only reasons for having it
are:
* Clarity.
* So that you can specify both Sybase and MS SQL
adaptors in your TR.props file.
Thanks,
