Call Level Interface Guide and Reference

Incompatibilities

All Version 1 and Version 2 applications are binary compatible, meaning they will run with a DB2 Universal Database Version 5 product without change. In some cases, the DB2 CLI initialization file (db2cli.ini) may require customization in order for the applications to run. For more information about this file and the various keywords, refer to Configuring db2cli.ini.

If applications are recompiled, some minor changes may be required, these changes can be minimized by setting the DB2CLI_VER define, refer to Setting the DB2CLI_VER Define for more information. The environment attribute SQL_ATTR_ODBC_VERSION can also be used to minimize the changes required. See the attribute description in SQLSetEnvAttr - Set Environment Attribute for more information.

Deprecated Functions Not Supported in a 64-bit Environment

The following deprecated functions are not supported in a 64-bit environment:

They are not supported in a 64-bit environment because they have a 32-bit integer parameter that may be cast to a pointer (which is not possible on a 64-bit system).

Your application will have to be modified to use SQLSetConnectAttr() and SQLSetStmtAttr() before it can be used in a 64-bit environment.
