Hi We've had a query from a customer: is C-ISAM available for Solaris on x86 (as opposed to SPARC)? It doesn't seem to be available from our usual download sources ... thx -- Neil Truby t:01932 724027 Director m:07798 811708 Ardenta Limited e:neil.truby@ardenta.com

Possibly not - or not without a request to build it. At the time when C-ISAM 7.26 was released (a few years ago now), Solaris/Intel was not one of the standard porting platforms, so it probably would require a build, QA and release cycle. That, in turn, will likely require a business case - more than a single licence copy. It isn't a hard port; it just has to be done, that's all. Contact IBM to start the negotiations. -=JL=-
