Introduction

this repository is a fork of alexbrainman/odbc and all credits go to the author(s) of this package

The reason for the fork

We have troubles with the Spark string type and the alexbrainman/odbc package. We have created an issue in the original repository explaining our issues in detail.

In this fork, we modify some of the column binding operations to work more nicely with Spark.

We also implement the driver.QueryerContext which honours the context passed in, and returns when the context times out or gets cancelled.

Original README.md

odbc driver written in go. Implements database driver interface as used by standard database/sql package. It calls into odbc dll on Windows, and uses cgo (unixODBC) everywhere else.

To get started using odbc, have a look at the wiki pages.
