You can get the informations of Informix Client SDK at following url.
http://www-3.ibm.com/software/data/informix/tools/csdk/
The latest version for AIX4.3 32bit is CSDK 2.81.UC2.

When Informix CSDK is installed, there is esql command under bin directory.
This is the precompiler which compiles the Embeded SQL files(.ec) to C source
files. You can get the CSDK version by 'esql -V'.

Unfortunately, there is no tools which comunicates with servers interactively
in Informix CSDK as long as I know. We probably need to write a small
program.
