I really dont find anything objectionable in C-library interfaces.
What I found objectionable was Informix Software's decision NOT
to supply an ALL-II like C-library interface to Informix SQL/ESQL.
ALL-II is a beautifully designed C-library for Informix 3.3.
What I really wanted to know was if any other _Major_ manufacturer had 
something like that for their SQL based product.
It is not all the time that I wish to access my data via Embedded SQL!!!

--Emuleomo O.O. (A satisfied Informix 3.3 user who is BEING FORCED to convert
                 to Embedded SQL to keep up with the times!!)
