Libraries Required to build a C-ISAM Gateway
INTRODUCTION:
=============
This Library entry details the additional requirements to build
a C-ISAM gateway. Products like MicroFocus COBOL and OpenDesktop
contain C-ISAM files, but NOT all the libraries PROGRESS requires
to build a gateway. PROGRESS requires INFORMIX C-ISAM libaries.
When attempting a PROBUILD without the required libraries, the
script generated executes, and attempts to link to files that
are not there, and the link fails. The error messages usually
generated are "Filename(s) not found...".
REQUIREMENTS:
==============
When building a C-ISAM gateway and executing the script generated by
PROBUILD, you must do the following:
1. Define $CISAMLIB to be -lisam.
2. Install INFORMIX C-ISAM libraries on the machine on which you
are attempting the PROBUILD.
CONCLUSION:
============
Once the environment variable $CISAMLIB is defined
appropriately, and INFORMIX C-ISAM libraries are
installed, the gateway can be built successfully.
