just a quick question, has anyone here used CI with an informix DB backend? If so, how did you get it setup?

Thanks!

I do not use Informix, but I think I can give you some pointers:
I assume you have installed the Informix extension.

In order to use CI's database abstraction, you have to write an Informix driver for CI.
Have a look at ./system/database/drivers/:
You have to create at least these two files:

informix_driver.php:

Code:

class CI_DB_informix_driver extends CI_DB {

    var $dbdriver = 'informix';
(...)
}

informix_result.php:

Code:

class CI_DB_informix_result extends CI_DB_result {
(...)
}

Now have a look at e.g. the files mysql_result.php and mysql_driver.php and adapt the contained MySQL functions for the corresponding Informix functions.
