<p>The erlang odbc process will now die normally if a
connection can not be established. No connection no
process it is expected. And as the client has already
received the error message that would be the reason with
which the erlang process would be stopped, the supervisor
report will be superfluous. Naturally you may still get
supervisor reports if the erlang process is stopped for
any other reason than the above.</p>

<p>If an ODBC API function times out it will cause the
client to exit with reason timeout. If this exit was
caught and the client continued using the connection, the
next request could get the answer meant for the
previously timed out request, this is no longer the case.</p>

<p>The Erlang ODBC application consists of both Erlang and C
code. The C code is delivered as a precompiled executable
for windows and solaris. For the purpose of recompilation
or compiling on some other platform there is a Makefile
included.</p>

<p>Expensive constructs such as lists:flatten/1, double
buffering and string compare has been replaced by more
efficient constructs or when possible totally eliminated.</p>

being a C-interface with Erlang syntax. The old interface
is deprecated and will be removed in release R10.</p>
