# The db-lib API

Functions callable by `db-lib` client programs. More...

## Modules
| Primary functions
| Core functions needed by most db-lib programs.

| Remote Procedure functions
| Functions used with stored procedures.

| Bulk copy functions
| Functions to bulk-copy (a/k/a bcp) data to/from the database.

| Money functions
| Functions to manipulate the MONEY datatype.

| Datetime functions
| Functions to manipulate DBDATETIME structures.

| Internals
| Functions called within `db-lib` for self-help.

| Unimplemented
| Functions thus far not implemented in the FreeTDS db-lib implementation.

## Defines
#define | BCP_SETL(x, y) dbsetlbool((x), (y), DBSETBCP)
| Enable (or prevent) bcp operations for connections made with a login.
#define | DBSETLAPP(x, y) dbsetlname((x), (y), DBSETAPP)
| Set the (client) application name in the login packet.
#define | DBSETLHOST(x, y) dbsetlname((x), (y), DBSETHOST)
| Set the (client) host name in the login packet.
#define | DBSETLPWD(x, y) dbsetlname((x), (y), DBSETPWD)
| Set the password in the login packet.
#define | DBSETLUSER(x, y) dbsetlname((x), (y), DBSETUSER)
| Set the username in the login packet.

## Detailed Description

Functions callable by `db-lib` client programs.

The `db_lib` interface is implemented by both Sybase and Microsoft. FreeTDS seeks to implement first the intersection of the functions defined by the vendors.
