Data source and platform requirements

Refer to Supported Configurations for the latest data source and platform requirements.

Windows requirements for 32-bit drivers

  • All required network software that is supplied by your database system vendors must be 32-bit compliant.
  • You must have Microsoft Visual C/C++ runtime version 14.40.33810 or higher.
  • You must have ODBC header files to compile your application. For example, Microsoft Visual Studio includes these files.

Windows requirements for 64-bit drivers

  • All required network software that is supplied by your database system vendors must be 64-bit compliant.
  • You must have Microsoft Visual C/C++ runtime version 14.40.33810 or higher.
  • You must have ODBC header files to compile your application. For example, Microsoft Visual Studio includes these files.

Linux requirements for 32-bit drivers

  • If your application was built with 32-bit system libraries, you must use 32-bit drivers. The database to which you are connecting can be either 32-bit or 64-bit enabled.
  • An application compatible with components that were built using g++ GNU project C++ Compiler version 3.4.6 and the Linux native pthread threading model (Linuxthreads).

Linux requirements for 64-bit drivers

  • An application compatible with components that were built using g++ GNU project C++ Compiler version 3.4 and the Linux native pthread threading model (Linuxthreads).

AIX requirements for 32-bit and 64-bit drivers

  • IBM POWER processor

  • An application compatible with components that were built using Visual Age C++ 6.0.0.0 and the AIX native threading model.
