I’m looking for a C++ API that is able to connect to different types of databases all in one; mainly MySQL, oracle and SQL Server and I believe I have found one with “DTL” ( http://dtemplatelib.sourceforge.net/ )
However, I’m struggling to connect my database on localhost. Has anyone used this before and could shed some more light on it other than what their site does with
DBConnection::GetDefaultConnection().Connect("UID=example;PWD=example;DSN=example;");
though I guess what to put in uid and pwd, I’m not sure what it’s expecting in ‘dsn’, are there any REAL examples or have you guys used it before and could help.
This is an ODBC library, so DSN is the ODBC data source name. On Windows, these can be configured under Administrative Tools->Data Sources.
