SUMMARY

ODBCConfTool20.exe is a utility that you can use to view and record the conformance level of an ODBC driver.

The value that an ODBC driver reports as its conformance level is hard coded into the ODBC driver and is not calculated at the time of a SQLGetInfo function call. ODBCConfTool20.exe calls the SQLGetInfo function for each ODBC attribute, and verifies that the attribute is accessible in the ODBC driver.

The SQLGetFunctions ODBC API function also returns a hard-coded bitmap of the functions in the ODBC driver, and SQLGetFunctions does not verify if the functions exist in the ODBC driver. The conformance tool calls the SQLGetFunctions function, and only displays the results of the call. DriverConf1.exe does not verify whether the functions actually exist or work.
