Alas, Informix doesn't have a native FreeBSD port of their esql/c product. However, we recently went through a database selection process and our Informix sales guys managed to get approval for the port (just esql/c, not the entire database) to be done. We ultimately went with another database so I don't know the status of the port, but if they went ahead it would be nearing completion. (And if they didn't, I don't imagine it would be too difficult to get the project going again). I suggest contacting your friendly Informix sales rep and see what they can do for you.

Subject: Maybe someone here has a solution?
Most of our machines in this office run FreeBSD-3.x or 4.x and I need to write an application that selects certain info from an Informix database and displays the results in HTML. The Informix DB is on a SCO OpenServer 5.x boxen ...
I can very easily use APACHE/Mod_Perl + ESQL/C to write this application ... but I can't find any info on using esql/c on a freebsd box or even something similar that I can use.
Anyone have any idea's or suggestions for th ebest solution?
-thanks
Rich
