The program was tested on: The application is developed with Qt 5.9.1 on Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04.
* clients: Windows 10 with Qt 5.9.1, Ubuntu 16.04 with Qt 5.5.1, The program was tested on MySQL Server 5.5.57 and Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 SP3.
* servers: MySQL Server 5.5.57, Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 SP3.

## SQL database drivers ## SQL database drivers
A comprehensive discussion about SQL database drivers (Qt driver plugins as well as system drivers) can be found in [Qt Documentation](https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/sql-driver.html). MSSQL is handled by the ODBC driver.

MSSQL is handled by the ODBC driver.
Although binaries of the program have statically-linked libraries, in order to connect from Linux to MSSQL server, one should install ODBC SQL Server driver (e.g. `msodbcsql`__*__).
The following section covers the essential tools to develop app with dynamically-linked SQL libraries.
