ERL-464: {error, "Column type not supported"} #3181

Open OTP-Maintainer opened 7 years ago

Original reporter: sdl.web@gmail.com Affected version: OTP-20.0 Component: odbc Migrated from: https://bugs.erlang.org/browse/ERL-464


I have used the ODBC app to connect to MySQL/SQL Server/Postgres and it has saved me a lot of time in many situations where I am not terribly concerned with performance. I now have it talk from GNU/Linux to SQL Server.

There is a deficiency in the ODBC app that is it cannot handle SQL_GUID columns i.e. select from tables with these columns often gives "Column type not supported". It is increasingly common to see this error.

I'll leave this to the ODBC maintainers to look at after their vacations.

It would probably not be very hard to add, however it will be very hard for us to prioritize so user contributions from any one wanting such feature are more than welcome.
