<connection>

Abstract class

Description

Instances of this class identify an execution context to a client application. It is the root class of all connection classes, and a subclass of <object>.

The SQL-ODBC library defines a class <odbc-connection>, and instances of this class are created by the SQL-ODBC library when a connection is made to a database. A client application should not create instances of the <connection> class or any of its subclasses.
