C compilers

You must have an ANSI-compliant C compiler installed to use the sample programs or to build applications. Sybase has certified the Microsoft Visual C++ Version 6.0. and may certify other compilers. For a list of currently certified compilers, speak to your Sybase sales representative.

Compile and run an Open Client and Open Server program in the same way as any other C language program. For instructions about compiling and linking your application, see the documentation for your compiler.

WARNING! If you have problems using an ANSI-compliant C compiler that Sybase has not certified, you can receive technical support from Sybase only if the problems can be reproduced using a Sybase-certified compiler.

For Windows supported platforms, see the Open Server and SDK New Features for Windows, Linux, UNIX, and Mac OS X.
