env
C compiler is installed on your development station:
gcc -v
Source files have the necessary encoding:

Hydra uses the correct DB driver:
echo $HYDRA_DB_DRIVER
The compiler architecture corresponds to your development needs:
readelf -h $HYDRA_DIR/bin/fglc
The necessary version of Visual C++ is installed on your development station:
cl.exe

isql -v <odbcini_entry>
