Microsoft Sql For Macos Windows 7
Mar 22, 2019 Hi Are there plans for a SSMS to run on Mac OSX, since there is a Visual Studio for Mac? Thanks davej Hello, The SSMS team has no plan at this time to move SSMS to be cross-platform. They say they can consider such a project if there is a demand for that, if enough people vote for it. As a result I created the following Connect item to test user.
This article explains how to install the Microsoft ODBC Driver for SQL Server on macOS. It also includes instructions for the optional command-line tools for SQL Server (bcp and sqlcmd) and the unixODBC development headers.
This article provides commands for installing the ODBC driver from the bash shell. If you want to download the packages directly, see Download ODBC Driver for SQL Server.
Microsoft ODBC 17
To install Microsoft ODBC driver 17 for SQL Server on macOS, run the following commands:
Important
If you installed the v17 msodbcsql package that was briefly available, you should remove it before installing the msodbcsql17 package. This will avoid conflicts. The msodbcsql17 package can be installed side by side with the msodbcsql v13 package.
Previous versions
The following sections provide instructions for installing previous versions of the Microsoft ODBC driver on macOS.
ODBC 13.1
Use the following commands to install the Microsoft ODBC driver 13.1 for SQL Server on OS X 10.11 (El Capitan) and macOS 10.12 (Sierra):
Driver files
The ODBC driver on macOS consists of the following components:
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| libmsodbcsql.17.dylib or libmsodbcsql.13.dylib | The dynamic library (dylib) file that contains all of the driver's functionality. This file is installed in /usr/local/lib/. |
msodbcsqlr17.rll or msodbcsqlr13.rll | The accompanying resource file for the driver library. This file is installed in [driver .dylib directory]../share/msodbcsql17/resources/en_US/ for Driver 17 and in [driver .dylib directory]../share/msodbcsql/resources/en_US/ for Driver 13. |
| msodbcsql.h | The header file that contains all of the new definitions needed to use the driver. Note: You cannot reference msodbcsql.h and odbcss.h in the same program. msodbcsql.h is installed in /usr/local/include/msodbcsql17/ for Driver 17 and in /usr/local/include/msodbcsql/ for Driver 13. |
| LICENSE.txt | The text file that contains the terms of the End-User License Agreement. This file is placed in /usr/local/share/doc/msodbcsql17/ for Driver 17 and in /usr/local/share/doc/msodbcsql/ for Driver 13. |
| RELEASE_NOTES | The text file that contains release notes. This file is placed in /usr/local/share/doc/msodbcsql17/ for Driver 17 and in /usr/local/share/doc/msodbcsql/ for Driver 13. |
Resource file loading
The driver needs to load the resource file in order to function. This file is called msodbcsqlr17.rll or msodbcsqlr13.rll depending on the driver version. The location of the .rll file is relative to the location of the driver itself (so or dylib), as noted in the table above. As of version 17.1 the driver will also attempt to load the .rll from the default directory if loading from the relative path fails. The default resource file path on macOS is /usr/local/share/msodbcsql17/resources/en_US/
Troubleshooting
If you are unable to make a connection to SQL Server using the ODBC driver, see the known issues article on troubleshooting connection problems.

Next steps
After installing the driver, you can try the C++ ODBC example application. For more information about developing ODBC applications, see Developing Applications.
