Client APIs and toolsYou can use the HCL Informix® implementation of client APIs to develop applications for Informix® database servers.
Informix® Object Interface for C++ GuideThe Informix® Object Interface for C++ Programmer's Guide describes how to develop HCL Informix® client applications by using the object-oriented C++ programming language.

Informix database server compatibility

The can be used to create database client applications that run against HCL Informix® databases. However, classes and methods that support version 9,x and 10.x extensibility features are not supported with version 7.x databases.

HCL Informix version 7.x does not support the boolean, int8, blob, clob, or lvarchar data types or the Informix extended data types: opaque, distinct, row, and collection.

Some of the Object Interface for C++ examples work only with Informix version 9.x and 10.x, since the version 7.x Dynamic Server SQL parser does not support Informix data type casting syntax (value::data_type) in SQL statements.

Object Interface for C++ dynamic loading and object delegation technique are only useful with Informix databases.
