Example of retrieving information about a smart large object
The code example, loinfo.c, shows how to retrieve information about a smart large object.
You can find the loinfo.c file in
the %INFORMIXDIR%/demo/clidemo directory on UNIX™ platforms and in the %INFORMIXDIR%\demo\odbcdemo directory
in Windows™ environments.
You can also find instructions on how to build the odbc_demo database
in the same location.
