There are a number of ADALNK variants, depending upon the Software AG products that are installed and versions of those products.
In order to use Adabas Vista, you must use the multi-threaded version known as ADALNKX. This is installed by Adabas and/or Entire Net-Work.
On Unix platforms, the ADALNKX library is named libadalnkx.so or libadalnkx.sl and can be found in the /opt/softwareag/common/lib directory.
On Windows platforms, the ADALNKX library is named adalnkx.so and can be found in the C:\Program Files\Common Files\Software AG directory.
3GL applications that currently use the ADALNKX library do not require any changes in order to use Adabas Vista.
If your applications use other ADALNK variants (such as libadalnk.so or libadalnk.sl on Unix platforms or adalnk.dll on Windows platforms), then the application must be re-linked with the ADALNKX library before they can use Adabas Vista.
Natural uses ADALNKX by default, so changes are not usually necessary in order to use Adabas Vista. However, in Unix environments it is possible to select an alternative library by setting the $ADALNK environment variable.
If your Unix environment sets the $ADALNK environment variable, it must be unset so that Natural uses the default ADALNKX library.
