Almost a year ago I stated that I would begin on making Cdata by AL Stevens a multi-user RDBMS system. I have done this and in the process I made the functions very informix-like. I am currently working on the standard dbbuild, dbstatus, and enter2 utilities. What I have done is kept the basic low-level algorithm, but have totally changed the C-interface to be very compatible with Informix 3.3. A simple -DSINGLE_USER will create an informix library for any PC compatible. In the future, I plan on changing it to a client-server model for efficiency reasons (currently twice as fast as informix and uses SysV IPC semaphores as a concurrency control mechanism). I will eventually try to make it compatible with SQL.
