 <h2 class="title">Installation</h2>

 <p class="para">

  To build the PDO_INFORMIX extension, the Informix Client SDK 2.81 UC1 or

  higher must be installed on the same system as PHP. The Informix Client

  SDK is available from the <a href="http://www-306.ibm.com/software/data/informix/tools/csdk/" class="link external">&raquo; IBM Informix

  Support Site</a>.

 </p>

 <p class="para">

  PDO_INFORMIX is a <a href="http://pecl.php.net/" class="link external">&raquo; PECL</a> extension, so

  follow the instructions in <a href="install.pecl.php" class="xref">Installation of PECL extensions</a> to install the

  PDO_INFORMIX extension. Issue the <strong class="command">configure</strong> command

  to point to the location of your Informix Client SDK header files and

  libraries as follows:

  <div class="example-contents screen">

<div class="cdata"><pre>

   bash$ ./configure --with-pdo-informix=/path/to/SDK[,shared]

</pre></div>

  </div>

  The <strong class="command">configure</strong> command defaults to the value of the

  <i>INFORMIXDIR</i> environment variable.

    <h2 class="title">Scrollable cursors</h2>

    <p class="para">

     PDO_INFORMIX supports scrollable cursors; however, they are not enabled

     by default. To enable scrollable cursor support, you must either set

     <strong class="userinput"><code>ENABLESCROLLABLECURSORS=1</code></strong>

 in the corresponding ODBC

     connection settings in <var class="filename">odbc.ini</var> or pass

     the <strong class="userinput"><code>EnableScrollableCursors=1</code></strong>
