# SimpleODBC

> This sample demonstrates the use of standard ODBC functions in conjunction with the eXtremeSQL ODBC driver to connect to an in-memory database. It also demonstrates the ability to connect to a shared in-memory database from two processes - the `simpleodbc` sample application and the xSQL utility. Please use this link for an overview of the eXtremeSQL ODBC.

### How to Run

> See instructions here on how to build this and other samples on your development platform. (Also note that there are instructions here for installing the eXtremeSQL ODBC driver). Once built, the sample can be run from the `\target\bin` directory:

>         simpleodbc

> Now use the xSQL utility to connect to the in-memory database created by `simpleodbc` and perform simple SQL operations like `"SELECT * FROM Person`".
