Regarding Debuuger
Prateek Jain asked how to get a debugger like fgldb for a c4gl installation. Art S. Kagel said fgldb debugs pcode and needs r4gl; for c4gl compile with -g and use a conventional debugger, or -G and -keep to debug at the .c level. scottishpoet suggested moving to r4gl licences, buying fgldb, and keeping a couple of i4gl licences for compiling.

Hi, We currently have Informix c4gl and want to have debugger(fgldb) which comes along with r4gl. We want to have Informix Debugger fgldb. Is Debugger free , In short how to get it or have c4gl application get debugged like the fgldb debugger. -- Regards, Prateek Jain

If it gets a bit weird, then use -G and -keep to eliminate the 4Gl line numbers and debug at the .c file level. The only 4GL level debugger for Informix 4GL is fgldb for which you need r4gl since it debugs the pcode not machine code. Art S. Kagel

Buy fgldb licenses Buy one or two i4gl licenses so that once you have developed your applications you can compile then as c executables
