Implicit transactions

Hello,

Is implicit transactions used within Uniface 10?
We have performance issues and our DBA finds implicit transactions even for a select statement. But I can't find anything in de source about using implicit transactions. Is there a way of turn if off?
Database is SQL Server 2016 and we use ODBC SQL Server driver for the connection.

greets,

Hello Erhan,

Do you experience this behavior only in Uniface 10? I did some digging in our knowledge base and it seems that one of my colleagues has raised this on the SQL Server Forum (some time ago):

• In manual commit mode, SQLEndTran() starts a new transaction

The behavior seems to be caused by the Microsoft ODBC driver, if I understand it correctly.

Are you, however, sure that the performance issues you are experiencing are actually caused by these implicit transactions? From what I can see this will not be different in Uniface 9.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards
