gitlab.com/stone.code/odbc3-go (go): Package odbc3-go provides a thin wrapper around the ODBC API.  The acronym ODBC refers to Open Database Connectivity, and the API provides a abstract and low-level interface to different types of database servers.  Drivers exist for most major databases types, which means that the API can provide an agnostic interface to most databases.  This package provide a thin wrapper around the ODBC API.  This means that most functions exist with nearly the same parameters and return values as in the underlying C API.  Therefore, documentation and tutorials for ODBC should also be useful in understanding this package.  However, some modifications in the API are present.  These modifications exist to ensure type-safety, whereas the C API frequently requires unsafe casts.  On linux and other unix-like systems, this package uses cgo.  To build this package, you will need to have the necessary development files (i.e. headers) installed on your system.  You will also need a compiler.  On windows, this package uses the syscall interface.  No development files are required.
