The FAQ implys that there isn't a version of dbperl for Informix, but that there is an alternative: ----------------------------------------------------- 10.2 Is there a Perl interface to Informix? Bill Hails writes: There is now a perl interface to Informix SQL, available by anonymous ftp from ftp.demon.co.uk as pub/perl/db/isqlperl/isqlperl-1.2.shar.Z You'll need perl already installed, and you'll need Informix ESQL/C installed to build it also. This is not the notorious (and mythical) Infoperl, rather it's my reaction to finally discovering that Infoperl never existed. Nor is it DBperl compliant, so it will undoubtedly be supplanted by DBperl in the not too distant future. I've tested it on Informix 4.10 SE and Online. ----------------------------------------------------- PS: A new release of the FAQ is going to be available RSN (really!) - Kerry S ------------------------------------,------------------------------------------ Kerry Sainsbury, kerry@kcbbs.gen.nz | THE INFORMIX FAQ v2.4 Oct 95 Quanta Systems, Auckland | http://www.iiug.org/techinfo/faq/ New Zealand.
