Call-Level Interface (CLI)

I have just read about the Call-level interface, a library of DBMS
functions that can be called by an application program. Where can I
read more about the CLI function, Google & MSDN searches didn't yield
much and no examples etc. Does any one actually program to this to
facilitate data transfers? What is its performance similar to... OLE
DB?
Thanks.
The X/Open and ISO/IEC for database APIs implementation for SQL Server is
also known as ODBC, see
