Hi,

first to say that I am quite new to the ODBC interface ...

Now my question:

I want the ODBC driver (Linux/unixODBC) to map an incoming SQL_LOGVARBINARY to
BYTEA. Examining pgtypes.c I have seen that seems to be possible if the
bytea_as_longvarbinary member of the connection structure is set. Now ... I
am not sure how to set this. I have thought that this would be possible by
setting "ByteaAsLongVarBinary=1" inside of the odbc.ini. But without luck.
Once again I had a look at the sources - then I did not find any other way to
set it than setting it via the specified Windows GUI. Since I do use Linux
what is my way to set it? Do I have to go via the ODBC HDBC handle? Any
examples for this?

Thanks in advance!
