Re: Connecting to Informix
A poster wanted to write a program on Solaris 8 connecting to Informix, compiled with gcc/g++ 2.95.3, and asked for free libraries plus sample code and link commands. Replies pointed to IBM's Client SDK and the demo code and Makefile under $INFORMIXDIR/demo/c++, but he objected that these use Sun's CC compiler. Suggestions were to edit the Makefile, link gcc to cc, change esqlc to use cc, or set CC=gcc; another poster suggested just using the free Sun Studio 11 compiler instead. No confirmation of success is recorded.

All ready did so but can not get it to life. Can you help me with a sample and maybe with compile/link command line?
cd $INFORMIXDIR/demo/c++ examples and Makefile Superboer.
make uses /opt/SUNWspro/SC5.0/bin/CC compiler I allready state that I need to use g++ 2.95.3.

May I ask why you need to use g++? If the reason is cost, the Sun Studio 11 compiler suite is free (after joining the Sun Developer Network, which is also free.) http://developers.sun.com/prodtech/devtools/free/ glen
Link gcc to cc Or Edit the makefile Or Edit esqlc to use cc Or Export CC=gcc Paul Watson Tel: +44 1414161772 Mob: +44 7818003457 GO FURTHER with DB2 GET THERE FASTER with Informix.
