Unfortunately (for you - fortunately for me), Perl 5.8.8 with 64-bit
CSDK 3.00.FC2 on Solaris 10 correctly produces the negative answer.
That means that to some extent, the problem is platform specific.
I'll try to build DBD::Informix with CSDK 2.90.FC1 later - I have to
rig the build environment on my machine to do that. It might be CSDK
2.90 vs 3.00; it might be Linux x86 vs Solaris SPARC.
Rigged environment - it works correctly on Solaris under CSDK 2.90.FC1.
Please can you send me 'perl -V' output - I suggest taking dbi-users
off this chat until we have a resolution.
FYI 32bit client using 2.90.UC4 works correctly on linux against the
same DB server
So it is a client-side problem - CSDK or DBD::Informix - and not a
server problem.
Indeed - it's a reproducible problem in ESQL Version 2.90.FC4R1
and is confirmed in my tests to be fixed in ESQL Version 3.00.FC2
So if you use esql on 64bit Linux I suggest you upgrade to 3.00.
Thanks again for your help Jonathan.
