You do not need to manually register the ASE ODBC Driver if you have used the Sybase SDK Installation program to install ASE ODBC Driver on this machine. This page will describe the feature of an asynchronous interface for Node.js driver for SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise using ODBC driver. This feature creates an official Node.js driver for SAP ASE supported by SAP.
- Where is PC Client for ASE?Starting with SAP ASE 16.0 there is NO longer a PC -Client for Windows.Instead you will get the SDK (Software Devlopers Kit) for SAP ASE and then pick the Windows platform.
- Connection String Options - ODBC Driver for SAP Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise The following table describes the options that you can include in the connection string for SAP Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise.
- Jun 25, 2014 When you configure the ODBC driver to connect to SAP ASE, you create an ODBC data source. You can configure more than one datasource for SAP ASE. For example, you might want one data source for each database. Start the ODBC Data Source Administrator (odbcad32.exe) from the Windows System program group.

Purpose
This page will guide the creation of a Data Source for ODBC on the Windows platform.
Overview
ODBC (Open Database Connectivity) is a standard programming language middleware API for accessing database management systems (DBMS). Using ODBC to connect to ASE is most commonly used on Windows. With the ODBC Driver manager, Data Sources (DSN) are created to store connection information to databases. DSN on Windows can be in 3 different forms: User DSN, System DSN, and File DSN.
For the example, I will be creating a System DSN to connect to an ASE through ODBC Data Source Adminstrator 64-bit on Windows 8.
Setup
Open the ODBC Data Source Administrator. Depending on your platform, you will choose the 32-bit or 64-bit program.
Ase Odbc Driver
Choose the System DSN tab
Click Add…
On the new screen, select Adaptive Server Enterprise. Then, click Finish.
A new screen will pop up to configure the parameters.
On the General tab, enter the following information:
- Data Source Name: DSN as configured on the machine. This can be used as a logical reference to the data source.
- Server Name (ASE Host Name): Host where ASE resides.
- Server Port: Listener port of the ASE.
- Database Name: Default database for this data source connection.
Next, click the Connection tab.
On this screen, make sure you have these characteristics checked:
- Use Quoted Identifiers
- Set ANSI Null
Now, go back to the General tab. Click Test Connection.
Enter your Login ID and Password and click OK to test connection.
If your connection works, you will get a successful message.
Click OK to save your changes.

DSN in ODBC samples
ODBC samples are found in %SYBASE%DataAccessODBCsamples
It is easier in Windows to view the code in Visual Studio. Open odbcsamples.sln in Visual Studio (or double click). The layout is very similar to CT-Lib firstapp.c.
You will have allocation, connection, command, bind, fetch, output, and clean up.

For DSN we are focusing on the connection.
retcode = SQLConnect( dbc,(SQLCHAR*) 'sampledsn', SQL_NTS, SQL_NULL_HANDLE, SQL_NTS, SQL_NULL_HANDLE, SQL_NTS );
retcode = SQLConnect( dbc,(SQLCHAR*) 'sampledsn', SQL_NTS, SQL_NULL_HANDLE, SQL_NTS, SQL_NULL_HANDLE, SQL_NTS );
Here we see the DSN is used to establish the connection (“sampledsn”). Whatever items are set in that DSN will be used for this application. This also means, if the DSN is changed than the application will change as well. This is loaded at runtime. You do not have to rebuild the application for this to take effect.
To build the sample us:
Build tab > Build solution
then
go to the sample directory in cmd prompt.
cd %SYBASE%DataAccessODBCsamplesDebug
Run the simple application
simple.exe
Build tab > Build solution
then
go to the sample directory in cmd prompt.
cd %SYBASE%DataAccessODBCsamplesDebug
Run the simple application
simple.exe
If you receive a login error this is because the password was never sent during the connection time.
You can change this by editing the registry or editing the code to add:
SQLLEN passwordlen = 6;
retcode = SQLConnect( dbc,(SQLCHAR*) 'sampledsn', SQL_NTS, SQL_NULL_HANDLE, SQL_NTS, (SQLCHAR*)'sybase', passwordlen );
From Devart:You can change this by editing the registry or editing the code to add:
SQLLEN passwordlen = 6;
retcode = SQLConnect( dbc,(SQLCHAR*) 'sampledsn', SQL_NTS, SQL_NULL_HANDLE, SQL_NTS, (SQLCHAR*)'sybase', passwordlen );
ODBC driver for SAP Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise provides high-performance and feature-rich connectivity solution for ODBC-based applications to access ASE databases. Significant features of ODBC driver for ASE are support for Windows - both 32-bit and 64-bit, Linux - both 32-bit and 64-bit, Mac OS X - both 32-bit and 64-bit ODBC driver provides capabilities to establish SSL-encrypted connections to Adaptive Server Enterprise databases directly via TCP/IP avoiding ASE client software.
