A.1 Getting Started with Acu4GL for Informix

Important: With the release of Acu4GL Version 4.2, Acucorp, Inc. no longer provides the Informix libraries along with the Acu4GL product. The Informix Libraries are necessary for providing a proper connection between Informix and Acucorp products. If you do not already possess them, you must obtain them directly from Informix, by contacting your local Informix vendor or by contacting:

Informix Software, Inc.
4100 Bohannon Drive
Menlo Park, CA 94025 USA
(650) 926-6300

You need to order Embedded ESQL for C. If you are using the version 5.1 series, you need the version 5.1 client libraries. If you are using the version 7.2 series or higher, you need the version 7.2 or higher.

To find out whether you can use a client/server environment to communicate with other database versions, contact Informix.

Follow the directions provided in your Informix documentation for installation of the Informix libraries, or, depending what your arrangement is with Informix, contact Informix Technical Support for any questions you may have.

Before you begin using Acu4GL for Informix on a new system, you must install and configure the Informix RDBMS. Your Informix vendor provides installation instructions.


Note: Acu4GL for Informix does not support ANSI-mode databases.

Please refer to the file SERVERS_7.2 in the release directory of your Informix distribution, for more information about version 7.2, 7.3, and above.
