how to get to the version of Informix server using Embeded SQL?

Hi,

I want to get the version info from current Informix server at run-time using embeded SQL.
for example, SQL Server can use the syntax:select @@version from ...

I know I can get the version through command onstat -l, but it can be used in my application at run-time.


Thanks very much!
Frank

Hi,

Check with sintax: databasename@servername:tablename
Where
databasename = database name
servername = INFORMIXSERVER, variable
tablename = table name
