Server Command Group
DataFlex is capable of working with client/server databases when they are run in conjunction with that type of database using a Connectivity Kit (driver) for this type of database. Connectivity Kits are database drivers that work with the DataFlex runtime to create a true client/server architecture in multi-user environments. Connectivity Kits are available for ODBC-compliant databases, Microsoft SQL, Pervasive.SQL, IBM DB2 Universal Database, and other databases.
The following commands invoke server functions from DataFlex programs:
- abort_transaction
- begin_transaction
- end_transaction
- get_transaction_retry
- login
- logout
- set_transaction_retry
These commands may behave differently depending on the database with which they are used, as well as if they are used without a client/server database.
