Hi, Error messages when try to make sqlcmd-86.00 on ubuntu 9.10 x86-64 and IDS 11.50.FC6WE: STEP 1 wget ftp://ftp.iiug.org/pub/informix/pub/sqlcmd-86.00.tgz tar -xvzf sqlcmd-86.00.tgz cd sqlcmd-86.00 STEP 2: CC="gcc -m64" ./configure ... [ok] STEP 3: make ... INFORMIXC="gcc -m64" esql -DESQLC_VERSION=350 -I.-I/opt/informix/incl/esql -O -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -g -O2 -c appblob.ec In file included from appblob.ec:29: jlss.h:45: error: conflicting types for 'getline' /usr/include/stdio.h:651: note: previous declaration of 'getline' was here make: *** [appblob.o] Fehler 1 Any ideas are appreciated.

Linux should not define functions called getline() without my permission. Especially not ones with a different interface or semantics to the version I defined a long time ago. :) Unfortunately, POSIX also seems to have got in on the act of annoying authors who thought they could define functions with names of their own choosing. There's a getline() in POSIX 2008. So, I guess I'm gonna have to try and find a name that means the same thing but doesn't run foul of other people's ideas. In the interim, you can edit the source to use some other name - like, perhaps, jlss_getline(). You need to edit: * getline.c * jlss.h * readload.c * sqlconn.ec Have fun.
