Hi, Trying to do the about gives me the errors: /usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.2.3/../../../../lib/ libisam.a(osctype.o): In function `ldctypearr': osctype.c:(.text+0x129): undefined reference to `__ctype_b' osctype.c:(.text+0x1c3): undefined reference to `__ctype_tolower' osctype.c:(.text+0x1ea): undefined reference to `__ctype_toupper' /usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.2.3/../../../../lib/ libisam.a(glsutill.o): In function `_gl_skip_whitespace': glsutils.c:(.text+0xe0c): undefined reference to `__ctype_b' /usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.2.3/../../../../lib/ libisam.a(glsutill.o): In function `_gl_get_int': glsutils.c:(.text+0xf0c): undefined reference to `__ctype_b' glsutils.c:(.text+0xf71): undefined reference to `__ctype_b' glsutils.c:(.text+0xfcc): undefined reference to `__ctype_b' /usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.2.3/../../../../lib/ libisam.a(glsutill.o): In function `_gl_get_dbl': glsutils.c:(.text+0x103f): undefined reference to `__ctype_b' /usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.2.3/../../../../lib/ libisam.a(glsutill.o):glsutils.c:(.text+0x10a9): more undefined references to `__ctype_b' follow collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Can anyone give me some guidance for how to get around this?

Exactly which version of C-ISAM do you have? Which version of Linux was it built on/for? Or, more especially, which version of the GNU C Library? And which version of the GNU C Library are you using? The build information should be in the release notes. My suspicion is that the C-ISAM was built using a very old version of the GNU C Library and therefore won't link with your much more modern version. -- Jonathan Leffler #include <disclaimer.h> Email: jleffler@earthlink.net, jleffler@us.ibm.com Guardian of DBD::Informix v2008.0229 -- http://dbi.perl.org/ publictimestamp.org/ptb/PTB-3142 ripemd320 2008-05-02 06:00:07 08BD19464F2193F2B58DA328F3ACDBE18F892D472427C230D6967342CF5379E65D1EC1 C82E05D74
