Subject: [ruby-talk:22852] RE:  FYI: ODBC problem


I just discovered that my problem only happened when ODBC was included, like
this:

	require 'odbc'
	include ODBC
	begin
		$conn = connect('SERVER', 'sa', 'xxxx')
	ensure
		$conn.disconnect
	end

When I changed the code to ...

	require 'odbc'
	begin
		$conn = ODBC.connect('SERVER', 'sa', 'xxxx')
	ensure
		$conn.disconnect
	end

... it gave no error.

I'm new to Ruby, could there be a namespace conflict with "connect"?  If so,
shouldn't there be some error telling me so?

I've downloaded and installed the current cygwin version of Ruby/ODBC
(0.94?) on Ruby 1.6.3, Win2K sp2.  When I try to open a MS SQL Server db, I
get a seg fault:

C:\fljava\ruby\ConvertGeo.rb:6: [BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.6.3 (2001-03-19) [i386-cygwin]
      0 [sig] ruby 1648 stackdump: Dumping stack trace to ruby.exe.stackdump

I will now give Ruby 1.6.4 a try.
