Controls ODBC transaction properties.

Last reviewed 2026-04-14

ODBC(property[,argument])
Description

The ODBC() function allows setting several properties to influence how a connected database processes transactions.

Arguments
  • property required
    • transaction - Gets or sets the active transaction ID. If set, and the transaction ID does not exist and a database name is specified as an argument, it will be created.
    • forcecommit - Controls whether a transaction will be automatically committed when the channel hangs up. Defaults to forcecommit value from the relevant DSN (which defaults to false). If a transaction ID is specified in the optional argument, the property will be applied to that ID, otherwise to the current active ID.
    • isolation - Controls the data isolation on uncommitted transactions. May be one of the following: read_committed, read_uncommitted, repeatable_read, or serializable. Defaults to the database setting in res_odbc.conf or read_committed if not specified. If a transaction ID is specified as an optional argument, it will be applied to that ID, otherwise the current active ID.
