[R] Re: Informix database

[Vito Ricci]

Hi,

see DBI: R/S-Plus Database Interface, maybe it could
help you: 

http://stat.bell-labs.com/RS-DBI
http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/Conferences/DSC-2001/Proceedings/HothornJamesRipley.pdf

I found:

Other Database Connections from S-Plus

Depending on the platform it's running, S-Plus
provides access to some DBMS through the
importData/exportData functions. Under Microsoft
Windows you may import/export data through ODBC; under
Solaris (and only Solaris) you may import data from
Informix, Oracle, and Sybase. See also the function
executeSQL.  

Best regards
Vito

We use Informix database. I was able to connect to the
database with
S-PLUS by using its CONNECT/Java through the JDBC
driver.
How can I connect to Informix with R, wither using
JDBC or any other
method? we run Linux so I prefer a method other than
ODBC.

Thankx for the help
