Software Contribution & Development Protocol Getting Started Download relevant source code release Build and test on desired platforms Note: If in either one of the steps above you stumble across any problems/bugs, please contact the OpenLink iODBC source archive manager at iodbc@openlinksw.com . Please provide as much information regarding the type of platform, compiler, compiler flags etc. in your bug report, we will try to get back in touch with you rapidly. Contacting Us: Bug Fixes and Suggestions Please report bugs or suggestions for new features as issues on the github project. For disclosing issues to us privately, email us at iodbc@openlinksw.com. Ideas are welcome at all times; ideas accompanied by the code that demonstrates core concepts (in the form of a pull-request) are even more appreciated. Standards Enforcement This initiative's greatest value is the provision of a cross-platform development interface that conforms to both the Microsoft ODBC and X/Open SQL CLI data access specifications. Thus, ensure that code contributions do not compromise this prime objective. We will adhere to the official Microsoft ODBC and X/Open SQL CLI specs at all times. Development Standards All iODBC Driver Manager development needs to be done in ANSI C to ensure the best cross platform compatibility. Code submissions need to be properly indented (we use the GNU 'indent' program) and commented in order to make group development as productive as possible.
