XLIII. Informix Functions
Introduction
The Informix driver for Informix (IDS) 7.x, SE 7.x, Universal
Server (IUS) 9.x and IDS 2000 is implemented in "ifx.ec"
and "php3_ifx.h" in the informix extension directory.
IDS 7.x support is fairly complete, with full support for
BYTE and TEXT columns. IUS 9.x support is partly finished:
the new data types are there, but SLOB and CLOB support is
still under construction.
Requirements
Configuration notes: You need a version of ESQL/C to compile
the PHP Informix driver. ESQL/C versions from 7.2x on should
be OK. ESQL/C is now part of the Informix Client SDK.
Make sure that the "INFORMIXDIR" variable has
been set, and that $INFORMIXDIR/bin is in your PATH before
you run the "configure" script.
Installation
To be able to use the functions defined in this module you
must compile your PHP interpreter using the configure line
--with_informix[=DIR], where DIR is the Informix base install
directory, defaults to nothing.
