Syntax

QX_COMPAT = {Informix4GL, Lycia, GBDS}

Possible values

Informix4GL	switches on the Informix® compatibility mode
Lycia	switches on the Lycia™ compatibility mode

Usage and examples

Depending on your needs, you can run 4gl applications in Lycia, Informix4GL, or GBDS compatibility modes (refer here for details).

QX_COMPAT is used to switch on the necessary compatibility modes:

QX_COMPAT = Informix4GL

If QX_COMPAT is not set, 4gl applications are run in Lycia compatibility mode.

To change the default behavior, QX_COMPAT is set in inet.env (as it applies at runtime).
