Install the DBD::SQLAnywhere interface on the supported Windows platform to use Perl to access SAP Sybase IQ databases.
Make the iqdemo database.
Install ActivePerl 5.6.0 or later. You can use the ActivePerl installer to install Perl and configure your computer. You do not need to recompile Perl.
Install Microsoft Visual Studio and configure your environment.
If you did not choose to configure your environment at install time, you must set your PATH, LIB, and INCLUDE environment variables correctly before proceeding. Microsoft provides a batch file for this purpose. For 32-bit builds, a batch file called vcvars32.bat is included in the vc\bin subdirectory of the Visual Studio 2005 or 2008 installation. For 64-bit builds, look for a 64-bit version of this batch file such as vcvarsamd64.bat. Open a new system command prompt and run this batch file before continuing.
For more information about configuring a 64-bit Visual C++ build environment, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/x4d2c09s.aspx.
The DBI Perl module and the DBD::SQLAnywhere interface are now ready to use.
