Yes, Connector/ODBC 3.51.12 is going to exhibit problems on 64-bit
platforms. We are working on eliminating these problems, and the next
release of C/ODBC 3.51 should be much-improved. Sorry I can't say when
it will be released, only that we are working hard on it.

Can you specify what is preventing you

from doing a release right now?

I hate to say so, but there is a reasonable chance. (I hate to say so
because I know there have been many such promises from us over the last
year and a half that have obviously not been met.)

Once we have gotten this next release out, we will be in a much better
position to get out future releases -- the build and testing process has
(finally) been almost completely automated and documented.

No.

I think we have enough test coverage of the 64-bit problems at this
time.
