Server Compatibility

When you create a new project in BladeSmith, you must specify the version of the database server with which you want your DataBlade module to be compatible. Different database server versions have different features; if you choose a feature that is not available for the database server version you specified, the feature is either disabled or BladeSmith displays a warning.

The following features are compatible only with Version 9.2 and later of Dynamic Server:

If you specify a database server version of 9.14 and attempt to add user-defined statistics support for an opaque data type, you receive a warning stating that statistics support is not available with Version 9.14.

You can use DBDK to generate Java code for aggregates, cast support functions, and user-defined routines by specifying compatibility with Version 9.2 and later of the database server. However, you must use the IBM Informix Dynamic Server with J/Foundation upgrade to IBM Informix Dynamic Server to enable services that use Java. For more information about IBM Informix Dynamic Server with J/Foundation, see the manual IBM Informix: J/Foundation Developer's Guide.

All other features are compatible with Version 9.14 and later versions of Dynamic Server.
