Re: TUXEDO / INFORMIX / ODBC question

In reply to Peries, Chaminda's email about TUXEDO / INFORMIX / ODBC question, on 10 Sep 97 Hi Chaminda, } Hi ! } } I have an application that needs to work with Tuxedo. I know that } Informix -7 has support for Tuxedo. We were able to make a Tux } transaction manager for Informix. However we were not able get the } application to work with Tuxedo. } } But our application uses INFORMIX - CLI (essentially ODBC ) to connect } to the INFORMIX database. I have my doubts about connecting to Tuxedo } via ODBC (Informix-CLI) . } } I need to find out if this was the way it is meant to work ? Can I use } CLI to connect with Tuxedo ? Or do I need a different kind of connection } software/library for my application ? } Are you trying to connect a PC based front end application to Tuxedo back end ? If so, you will have to use the Tuxedo /WS. That means you will have to do buildclient for the front end PC. You can find example applications in $TUXDIR/apps dir on your PC. } When Informix say They support Tuxedo, is it via CLI or ESQL. ? } I would suppose the support Informix is talking about is TP/XA support. Informix OnLine, at least 7.X, is XA compliant. } } Your response is greatly appreciated } } TIA } } Chaminda Peries } } Dynasty Technologies Inc.
