DBD::Informix4
Hey all- Does anyone have any experience with DBD::Informix4? I am currently experiencing some problems getting it to compile properly (ala missing header files). From what I understand I am missing the following: sqlca.h sqlda.h sqlhdr.h Anyone??

HOWEVER, while I have not tried the DBD package, I seriously doubt that Jonathan Leffler neglected to provide a make file. I'm sure if you use the make file it will properly compile the package.

We have some 7, 8, and 9 on there and only one DBD::Informix library. All my scripts certainly seem to work fine. : } experiencing some problems getting it to compile properly (ala missing : } header files).

We're talking about DBD::Informix4, not DBD::Informix, a fine product. cf. the DBD::Informix4 README: ] This is a driver I wrote for Informix SE 4.10, ] because DBD::Informix does not work with this ] ancient version. ] ] It is dirty hack! ] ] I am willing maintain this driver until we upgrade ] the system running this old Informix version. ] This will hopefully happen RSN. ] ] Since this is in the works, ] 0.23 will probably be the last version from me. ] ] Anyone willing to take over maintainence, just speak up. ] ] ] G'ran Thyni ] goran@bildbasen.se --Karl -- == Karl Wiebe == karl@dnai.com == "Order is a form of repetition compulsion" --Freud "Order is a form of repetition compulsion" --Freud "Order is a form of repetition compulsion" --Freud
