1. For shared library support, environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH needs to
   be set to include the $INFORMIXDIR/lib/cli directories where CLI shared
   libraries are installed.

   For C Shell, use

   setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH $INFORMIXDIR/lib/cli:$INFORMIXDIR/lib/esql:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

   For Bourne Shell, use

   LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$INFORMIXDIR/lib/cli:$INFORMIXDIR/lib/esql:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
   export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

2. The thread safe CLI libraries are supported for the current release
   using Gradient's DCE 1.1b Application Development Kit.

3. This product is built and tested on DYNIX/ptx V4.4.2. In order to assure
   full Y2K compliance of the OS, please contact Sequent Service. Sequent
   Service can conduct an audit of the installed Sequent software components
   and deliver a fastpatch if applicable.

4. Users of this release of 2.40 Client should have these or higher versions
   of the following packages installed on their machines:

    DYNIX/ptx(R) Base V4.4.2.4
    DYNIX/ptx(R) Public Software V4.4.2
    DYNIX/ptx(R) Encryption V4.4.2

1. The C++ compiler used to build the C++ interface is ptx C++ 5.0.11.


2. Option "-seqlngdbl" was used to build the C++ interfaces (This is the
   default option on ptx C++ v5.0.3 or later version of C++ compiler). This
   option forces long double to be 8 bytes rather than 12 bytes, to allow
   compatibility with long double in the ptx/C compiler.


3. For shared library support, environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH needs to
   be set to include the $INFORMIXDIR/lib/c++ directories where C++ shared
   libraries are installed.

   For C Shell, use

   setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH $INFORMIXDIR/lib:$INFORMIXDIR/lib/c++:$INFORMIXDIR/lib/esql:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

   For Bourne Shell, use

   LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$INFORMIXDIR/lib:$INFORMIXDIR/lib/c++:$INFORMIXDIR/lib/esql:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
   export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
