Sybase module for Python

Installation

If you are installing on a Linux machine, you should be able to simply do the following:

python setup.py install

To build the module for use with FreeTDS you can use the following commands:

python setup.py build_ext -D HAVE_FREETDS -U WANT_BULKCOPY
python setup.py install

By default the FreeTDS compile is against FreeTDS 0.61. To compile with FreeTDS 0.60 you must specify the older release with the HAVE_FREETDS macro.

python setup.py build_ext -D HAVE_FREETDS=60 -U WANT_BULKCOPY
python setup.py install

Installation on FreeBSD

Greg Bond has created a FreeBSD ports framework for the module. You can fetch it from http://www.itga.com.au/~gnb/py-sybase-port.shar.

Using the Free Borland Compiler

If you need to compile the module on Windows and do not have access to the Microsoft compiler you can use the free Borland compiler to build the Sybase module.
