Test and debug your DataBlade module in a nonproduction Informix database server environment because debugging interferes with the operation of the database server.
To successfully test and debug your DataBlade module, set your environment so you can access your Informix database server installation and build your DataBlade module shared object.
To run your Informix database server, check that these environment variables are set properly: INFORMIXDIR, PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, ONCONFIG, and INFORMIXSERVER. See the IBM Informix: Dynamic Server Administrator's Guide for more information on configuring your Informix database server.
When testing your DataBlade module, set the TESTDB environment variable to the name of your test database.
To recompile your DataBlade module shared object file during debugging, also set the TARGET environment variable. See Compiling on UNIX for more information on the TARGET environment variable.
