How to connect to cloud database using powerbuilder?
I want to connect to CLoud db using powerbuilder.
I am using transaction object .dbms = “odbc” for connection.
If I create DSN then its working fine.
But I want to connect to Cloud database without DSN Creation.
Can you please let me know what will be the connection string and transaction object’s property I will have to set so I can connect to multiple database on cloud?
Here is my sample code
———————
db_para = “111.1.11.1.100:2638;dbn=sample_db;uid=dba;pwd=sql”
//Set Database connection parameters
tr_sqlca.DBMS = “odbc”
tr_sqlca.AutoCommit = False
tr_sqlca.DBPARM = db_para
connect using tr_sqlca;
I am getting dialogbox to select DSN.
If I use SYC as dbms then getting message like “error loading client library DLLs. “

I can connect to cloud database using command prompt but not through powerbuilder.
Hi Bhavesh:
Passinng in the "DRIVER" argument in the connection
string - the ASE ODBC driver must still be present on the system.
"DRIVER=Adaptive Server Enterprise;UID=dba;PWD=sql;ENG=MyEngine;..."
Can you give it a try and let me know if it works.?
Cheers...Bob
It would depend on which cloud database you were trying to connect to.
I have an example of how to connect to Microsoft SQL Azure:
Topwiz Software - SQLAzure
Hi Bhavesh,
The following connection string succeeds with my local ASE server. Please try it with your cloud ASE server.
// Profile ase126_odbc
SQLCA.DBMS = "ODBC"
SQLCA.AutoCommit = False
SQLCA.DBParm = "ConnectString='Driver={Adaptive Server Enterprise};Srvr=PEKN50822184A;Uid=sa;Pwd=XXXXXX'"
