Hi there, I am designing a research project and wondering whether Informix has some open API (similar to Sybase's open server API) which allows the construction of a gateway. This gateway looks exactly like an Informix database server at the Informix CLI level (e.g., clients can connect to this gateway and issue SQL against it without realizing they are talking to a gateway). Thanks for enlightening! Please email your reply to li@cs.columbia.edu. -Jay phd Candidate Columbia University
