Well, we will use the Informix ESQL/C within our C++ project;
some tests proved that the generated C code is acceptable to
a C++ compiler.

Of course, the main problem is how to integrate such a database
into an object oriented framework. We have some ideas on that
but these are still preliminary. Does anyone have come to a
good classwork already?
