LYCIA_DB_DRIVER

Specifies the default database driver that will be used at runtime.

Syntax

LYCIA_DB_DRIVER={informix, odbc, oracle}

Possible values

informix	enables native connection to Informix® databases
oracle	enables native connection to Oracle® databases
odbc	enables the general ODBC interface

Usage and examples:

You can set the default database driver in several different ways:

• recommended by setting the LYCIA_DB_DRIVER environment variable in env.properties (for compilation), in inet.env (for runtime), and in environ.bat (if you use command line tools):

  LYCIA_DB_DRIVER = informix

• by modifying the database.cfg file,
• at runtime - by the CONNECT TO statement,
• for compilation - in LyciaStudio in the Database preferences page.

Environment variables has the lowest precedence that is why the LYCIA_DB_DRIVER value will be overwritten by all other methods.
