Compiling and Linking DataBlade Module Code

To compile your source code using Microsoft Visual C++ Developer Studio

    1. Configure Visual C++ with Informix include files and library file directories. See " Setting Informix Directories in Microsoft Visual C++" for instructions.

    2. Choose File Open and open Project.mak, the Visual C++ makefile for the DataBlade module, from the src\C directory.

    3. Choose Build Set Active Configuration. The Set Active Project Configuration dialog box appears.

    4. Select the Debug version of the project.

    5. Click OK.

    6. Choose Build Build Project.bld to compile.

Microsoft Developer Studio creates a Debug subdirectory under the src\C directory to hold debugging dynamic link libraries.

For information about compiling on UNIX, see the DataBlade Developers Kit User's Guide.
