Re: what is the best way to handle connectivity

Jeff, ODBC should work just fine - you can just link --with-iodbc as per the HOWTOs on www.iodbc.org. If you use a native driver than the Informix client needs to be installed on the same box.

I've got informix on a sco open server box, and my webserver has php 4.2.3 with apache. I'm wondering what the best way to handle the connectivity into the sco box is (not concerned with how difficult this is to setup, but rather pure speed) do I try to use a native driver? if I use the native driver does informix have to be installed on the same box? do I just try to use odbc? -- Jeff Bluemel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
