PDO_DBLIB is a driver that implements the <a href="intro.pdo.php" class="link">PHP
Data Objects (PDO) interface</a> to enable access from PHP to
Microsoft SQL Server and Sybase databases through the FreeTDS libary.
</p>
<p class="para">
On Windows, you should use the <a href="ref.pdo-odbc.php" class="link">PDO_ODBC</a>
driver to connect to Microsoft SQL Server and Sybase databases, as the
native Windows DB-LIB is ancient, thread un-safe and no longer supported
by Microsoft.
