FreeTDS 0.63
Summary
Description: Implementation of Sybase and MSSQL API
Source: http://www.freetds.org/
Support
This package is available for all platforms. Supporting this package is a medium priority.
Description
FreeTDS is a free (open source) implementation of Sybase's db-lib, ct-lib, and ODBC libraries. FreeTDS builds and runs on every flavor of unix-like systems we've heard of, as well as Win32 (with or without Cygwin), VMS, and Mac OS X. Failure to build on your system is probably considered a bug. It has C language bindings, and works also with Perl and PHP, among others.
The above is taken from the FreeTDS README file.

ODBC: use tds_dstr* functions to store descriptor information. SQLFetch returns error correctly. fix problem rebinding parameters. ability to fetch data types after prepare (needed for Oracle bindings and OTL library). header privatizations (removing tds.h dependency). Improved BCP support for NULL fields and native file format. ct-lib: ct_blk support (bcp for ct-lib) and cursor support. apps: added bsqldb and defncopy. iconv: better collation support, e.g. SQL_Scandinavian_CP850_CI_AS
