The
PC-Client CD contains several components that are each
packaged with their own installer. When you insert the PC-Client
CD, a menu program launches automatically. The menu program presents
the list of components that can be installed from the CD and allows
you to install them one at a time. Before installing any products, review the readme.txt file,
which contains a brief description of each of the products, lists
dependencies, and contains any last-minute instructions or changes.
Warning!
If PC-Client Components have been installed during
the Adaptive Server installation, do not re-install them, and do
not install them in a different directory.
Warning!
The PC-Client now contains 32-bit and 64 bit SDK.
It installs 32-bit SDK on 32-bit OS; and 64-bit SDK on 64-bit OS.
If
your 64-bit OS computer already has the 32-bit SDK/Adaptive
Server, you must run the 32-bit PC-Client installer in the "pcclient32"
folder.
PC-Client Components are provided so they can be installed
on client computers. You may install PowerDesigner, PowerTransfer,
and InfoMaker on the same computer as Adaptive Server.
