ODBC - multiple connections from one app to the same data source
- by Marcin K
I vaguely remember reading somewhere (in MSDN ODBC documentation?) that one application cannot make more than one connection to a single data source. It seemed to me that I need one connection that all the threads of the application will have to share.
I was trying to look this information up, but I can't seem to find it anymore. Does anyone know/remember how this works?
It all might become a problem in our app, since some of its threads will dynamically connect to data sources of their choice. I don't want to see random connection errors if two of them will connect at the same time to one source, so I wanted to double check this info.
