MySQL ODBC Connector and iODBC woes.

Hello,

Firstly, I know unixODBC works best with MySQL's ODBC drivers, but I'm
trying to get Stata 9 Linux (a commercial statistical package) to work
with MySQL and it uses iODBC. So I'm stuck, which sucks because everything
was working fine with unixODBC.

So I compiled and installed iODBC latest (3.52.3) in /usr/local. unixODBC
is still installed as a SuSE package under /usr and I'm hoping they'll not
interfer with each other.

Now will compiling from source mysql-connector-odbc-3.51.12, there was a
conflict in the definition between MySQL's SQLColAttribute defined in
result.c and iODBC's sql.h. I noticed that using the __APPLE__ define the
definitions are correct for OSX. I'm guessing that's because OSX uses a
variant of iODBC.

Now my question. Can I change the definition in result.c so everything
will compile or will there be side effects elsewhere?

Also what problems can occur by having both unixODBC and iODBC installed?

Thanks for any help you can offer.

-Pat.
