This patch makes it possible to connect to a SQL Anywhere database without having to specify
host
and/orserver
connection parameter.The original assumption that the
server
parameter is necessary to connect to the database was wrong. It is only required if the host is running multiple named server instances and a specific instance should be connected to.Also if the
host
parameter is not specified, it will default tolocalhost
now.The
LINKS
DSN parameter was replaced by the simpler and encouragedHOST
parameter as theLINKS
parameter is only required if you want to pass specific TCP/IP options.
