Re: Solaris 7 and Informix
Posted in 1998
I think not. But Current Solaris 2.6 versions of Informix IDS ans WS works fine on Solaris 7. Solaris 7 is very similar to solaris 2.6, and only internal structures of 64 bits pointers have changed. (Only 10% of code is different from 2.6). I think you can try to use 32 bits informix products with a 64 bits O.S.m and when Informix supports 64 bits you will be prepared to migrate only Informix products. This is only my opinion.
