RE: Shared libs on AIX 4.x
Posted in 1998
The info I provided was almost correct <g> My environment: AIX 4.1.5 INFORMIX-4GL Version 7.20.UD1 INFORMIX-ESQL Version 7.24.UC6 INFORMIX-OnLine Version 7.24.UC6 ================================= MACHINE SPECIFIC NOTES FOR INFORMIX-ESQL/C 7.24.UC6 PRODUCT RELEASE DATE: 02 Sep 1998 ================================= PORT NUMBER: 024718(8MM CASSETTE) 024721(DAT CARTRIDGE) 024724(TAPE CARTRIDGE) 0 24737(CD ROM) IRIS JOB NUMBER: 16376 Machine Specific Notes: ======================= 1. ESQL/C libraries are now supported as both static and shared libraries. The 'esql' script uses either shared or static libraries depending on "-shared" or "-static" option. To use shared library, invoke esql -shared and to use static library, invoke esql -static If no option is specified then, by default, shared library is used. During execution of ESQL/C program compiled with shared library, the environment variable LIBPATH need to be set to include the $INFORMIXDIR/lib, $INFORMIXDIR/lib/esql directories (where ESQL/C shared libraries are installed). For example, for C Shell, use: setenv LIBPATH $INFORMIXDIR/lib:$INFORMIXDIR/lib/esql:$LIBPATH:/lib:/usr/lib or for Bourne Shell, use: LIBPATH=$INFORMIXDIR/lib:$INFORMIXDIR/lib/esql:$LIBPATH:/lib:/usr/lib export LIBPATH ESQL/C applications written using versions prior to 7.20 of INFORMIX-ESQL/C libraries may need to be recompiled and/or -----Original Message----- From: Schaeflein, Paul [mailto:pschaefl@Sidley.com] Sent: Wednesday, November 11, 1998 8:42 PM To: gdomazet@open.hr; informix-list@iiug.org Subject: RE: Shared libs on AIX 4.x I think I saw that shared libs were implemented in 4GL version 7.20...

Is there any way to use shared libraries or is Informix going to implement it on AIX too? I believe that AIX is one of more popular platforms out there. -- Goran Domazet GoDoT gdomazet@dabar.open.hr 93/93
