The Object Interface for C++ is documented in these topics. The DataBlade® API is documented in the Informix DataBlade API Programmer's Guide. The GLS API, from which the Object Interface for C++ ITLocale class is derived, is documented in the Informix GLS API Programmer's Guide.

These topic refer extensively to the example programs included with the Object Interface for C++.

These topics are written for two audiences:
  • Developers that use C++ to create database client applications for HCL Informix servers
  • DataBlade developers who use to create value objects that allow C++ client applications to support DataBlade module data types

To use these topics, you must know C++. Familiarity with the Microsoft™ Component Object Model (COM) is also helpful when working with the Object Interface for C++.
