Supported versions for Adaptive Server
You can access Adaptive Server versions 15.x, and 16.x using the SYC
Adaptive Server database interface. Use of this interface to access other
Open Server programs is not supported. The SYC database interface uses a
DLL named PBSYC.dll to access the database through the Open Client
CT-Lib API.
You can also access Adaptive Server version 15.x/16.x using the ASE
Adaptive Server database interface. Use of this interface to access other
Open Server programs is not supported. The Adaptive Server database
interface uses a DLL named PBASE.dll to access the database through the
Open Client CT-Lib API. To use this interface, the Adaptive Server 15/16
client must be installed on the client computer. The ASE interface
supports large identifiers with up to 128 characters.
Client Library API
The Adaptive Server database interfaces use the Open Client
CT-Library (CT-Lib) application programming interface (API) to access
the database.
When you connect to an Adaptive Server database,
PowerBuilder makes the required calls to the API. Therefore, you do not
need to know anything about CT-Lib to use the database interface.
