Informix v14.10.FC3 & client csdk versions
Posted in 2020
Mark Jalkiewicz could not find a CSDK newer than 4.10.FC6 on Passport Advantage after moving to 14.10.FC3. Art Kagel said 14.10 ships with CSDK 4.50 (latest 4.50.FC2). Because CSDK is free, IBM lists it as a trial download rather than in Passport Advantage; Eric Vercelletto posted the download links. Solved; Scott Pickett agreed.

A while back I upgraded one of our development servers to IDS 12.10.FC7. on AIX 7 OS. The bundle I downloaded from PAA site included the client sdk/esql and after the 12.10.FC7 install & upgrade the csdk version showed : IBM Informix CSDK Version 4.10, IBM Informix-ESQL Version 4.10.FC7 Later was an upgrade to 14.10.FC3 which no longer includes csdk/esql bundled . The latest client csdk (or esql) I can find out on PAA is 4.10.FC6 so I am curious as to why no 4.10.FC7 ? I opened a ticket with PAA on the recommendation from TS and they said no such version exists for AIX. Mark ------------------------------ Mark Jalkiewicz ------------------------------ #Informix

See Eric's post. CSDK is free (always has been really) so IBM considers it a "Trial Download" so not in PAA. Go to the link Eric sent. You only have to pay for CSDK support, which is optional, not for the product itself. Art Art S.
