A trace file is overwritten everytime that the application (for example the example application) is re-started or a new connection is made.
Steps to Reproduce
Clarifying Information

Approach:

  1. ODBC Tracing will read an additional Tracing Option call TraceFilePerProcess, the default will be 1 (enabled). Users can set this Tracing option in the ODBC DSN TraceFilePerProcess=1 to enable this.
  2. If this option is disabled; the ODBC tracing behavior remains as is.
  3. If this option is enabled; the ODBC Tracing will append the Process ID to the Trace File name present in the ODBCINI. like <ODBC_TRACE_FILE>_<PROCESS_ID> to create unique ODBC Trace file per process.
  4. The TraceOption behavior will defautlt like TraceOptions is set to 3.
  5. Rest of the of trace options would be still applicable and can be used with this new approach.
