Machine Specific Notes
======================
1. This product supports the following compiler:
Microsoft Visual Studio 2017
This product is built on Windows 2016 using the following compiler from
Microsoft Visual Studio 2017:
Microsoft Visual C++ 2017
2. IPv6 Support
IDS supports Internet Protocol Version 6 (128 Bit Internet Addresses)
as well as IPv4 (32 Bit Addresses).
In order for the machine name specified in the SQLHOSTS registry to resolve
to the correct IP address, the name services files on the Operating System
should be correctly configured.
For compatibility with older HCL Informix client and server products,
assign the same hostname with both an IPv4 address and an IPv6 address.
If the listener needs to be bound to an IPv4 address and the name services
resolve the name in the order of the IPv6 address followed by IPv4 address,
then an explicit IPv4 address needs to be put in the nodename field of the
server registry. Client applications should also use the same setting.
