QODBC driver

Hi everyone,

i have done a qt application who has to connect to another computer who has a Microsoft SQL Server Express Edition.

I have written this code:

bool DAO::connect(){
bool result=true;
QSqlDatabase db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QODBC");
db.setHostName("10.2.9.15");
db.setDatabaseName("Test Bench (Prueba)");
db.setUserName("admin");
db.setPassword("admin");
result = db.open();
return result;
}

An i have created a new ODBC user dns with SQL Server Controller
I am using Visual Studio 2008, SQL Server Express Edition 2005, Windows Vista and qt4.4.3.

And when i execute my aplication this errors appears:

QSqlDatabase: QODBC driver not loaded
QSqlDatabase: available drivers: QSQLITE

In the directory C:\qt\4.4.3\qt-win-opensource-src-4.4.3\src\plugins\sqldrivers\odbc i have:

main.cpp
odbc.pro
qsql_odbc.cpp
qsql_odbc.h
qsqlodbc_resource.rc
qsqlodbcd_resource.rc

I have compiled qmake odbc.pro and the same error again.

I don´t know what i have to do, if i have to download ODBC driver please tell me where can i download it, because i haven´t found nothing.

Please help me.

Thank you very much.

You need to compile odbc plugin as described in Qt Assistant.

After compiling the odbc plugin be sure to copy libqsqlobdc.so (or .dll on windows) to your qtsdk/bin/sqldrivers/ and qtsdk/qt/plugins/sqldrivers directories so QT can find it and use it.
