This is a basic implementation of ODBC functionalty similar to MATLABS ODCB functionalilty.
In linux, it uses unixODBC, in windows the native odbc interface.
The toolkit can be installed in Octave 7.2+ using the command:
pkg install -forge odbc
After installation, load the package in order to use it.
pkg load odbc
Note: The package needs to loaded each time Octave is run in order to use the package.
On newer versions of Octave, on loading the package the documentation will be available in the Octave documentation pages.
The Documentation is also installed as a pdf in the installed package folder.
Online documentation is also available at https://gnu-octave.github.io/octave-odbc/
In built function test can be run using pkg test odbc. It requires the SQLite3 ODBC drivers
to be installed, and an octave_odbc_test DSN to be configured.
Bugs can be filed on the issue tracker.
