Hello,
I thought I would ask here for advice about moving from sybase 12 to
sybase 15. Version naming in software has become such a bewildering
affair that I gave up using the sybase site. Hopefully there are some
sybase wizards here who can sum up the information without all the
marketing verbiage.
We are on sybase 12 and are using a third-party product that have just
moved to sybase 15. The vendor says that sybase 12 is still sup****ted
but I am skeptical and worried in case we are forced to move (we
cannot escape from this third-party product). What I need to know is
what versions there from 12 to 15 and what are the main differences
are from a compatibility migration point of view. For example, what
happens when a third-party server designed and built using sybase 15
tries to talk to a version 12 server? version 13 (if it exists)? etc
etc.
If we have to move to sybase 15 another thing I need to know is about
some code we have written in C using dblib. Is dblib still sup****ted
in sybase 15? We cannot move to using ctlib right now. Is the commit
server still programmed in the same way? The dblib code is using two
phase commits.
Regards,
Andrew Marlow
