Description:
------------
Hello
I guess why in the php5.2.1 the current support for the driver for Informix  DB has been changed. I can't switch to php5.2.1, because there is no --with-informix in the compilation options. 90% of my applications are mission critical and Informix DB based. I use AdoDB and native functions. How I'm supposed to tell our developers that they would have to rewrite the application and change all the instructions e.g.: ifx_connect, etc for PDO. This is the worst fitcher I have ever heard!!!! I'm sure I'm not the only one with this problem, because IBM Informix is used by millions of peole all over the world. I need your help in order to compile  php5.2.1  with --with-informix option if  "...are strongly encouraged to upgrade to it as soon as possible..."
I have no options to compile it!!!
    Regards Przemek

Why can't you install it from PECL?

I installed from PECL but in the PECL there is only PDO version, which means I can't use ifx_connect, ifx_query,etc. but PDO(informix:...), query(); Shall I rewrite the application?

You can fetch it from CVS:

It works. Thanks for your help. I had some problems with rebuild configure script but it works. I hope that Informix in its next version shall be available not only in PDO!
