/** \mainpage SQL Anywhere C API
*
* \section intro_sec Introduction
* The purpose of this API is to simplify creating C/C++ wrapper drivers for various interpreted languages
* such as PHP, Perl, Python, Ruby, and others. This API layer sits on top of DBLIB and was implemented
* using Embedded SQL. This API is not a replacement of DBLIB. It is just a way to simplify creating applications
* from C/C++ code without having to learn all the details of Embedded SQL.
*
* \section distribution Distribution of the API
* The API is built as a DLL (shared object on UNIX). The name of the DLL is \b dbcapi.dll
* ( \b libdbcapi.so on UNIX). This DLL is linked statically to DBLIB of the SQL Anywhere version that it was
* built against. When dbcapi.dll is loaded, the corresponding dblibX.dll is loaded by the OS. Applications that
* interface with dbcapi.dll can either link directly to it or load it dynamically. For dynamic
* loading of the DLL, please refer to the Dynamic Loading section below.
*
* The file sacapi.h is the main header file for the API. It describes all the data types and the entry
* points of the API.
*
* \section dynamic_loading Dynamically Loading the DLL
* The header file sacapidll.h contains the proper code to dynamically load the DLL. An application would
* need to include the sacapidll.h header file and compile in sacapidll.c with their source.
* sqlany_initialize_interface() can be used to dynamically load the DLL and lookup all the entry points.
*
* \section threading_support Threading Support
* The C API library is thread-unaware, meaning that the library does not perform any tasks that require
* mutual exclusion. In order to allow the library to work in threaded applications, there is only one rule to
* follow: no more than one request is allowed on a single connection . With this rule, the application
* is responsible for doing mutual exclusion when accessing any connection-specific resource. This includes
* connection handles, prepared statements, and result set objects.
*
* \version 2.0
