Migrationg from Sybase 15.0.2 32 bit to 15.7 64 bit

Question

Hi,
I am working on a C++ migration project in which we are using Sybase client dll version 15.0.2 of 32 bit.
Now I need to migrate the whole application on 64 bit architecture with newer version of Sybase client 15.7.
I've downloaded the 64 bit version of Sybase 15.7 and installed it on my machine but I don't see the "ASE-15_0" folder inside the Sybase installation folder on my machine which was present in the previous version of Sybase client "15.0.5"
Basically I need couples of .DLL files for compilation which come along with this folder.
mtl70mt.dll
widge32.dll
All other required .dll and headers are present in the installation only ASE-15_0 is missing.
Am i Missing anything here?
Or I need to download anything else. Please advise.
I've downloaded
51047787
Win_64bit.
Regards,
Sagar K.

Sagar,
I've never heard of anyone building a ctlib application with mtl70mt.dll and/or widge32.dll.
Customers use ct_options without these files which could mean a red herring or misleading error message for you.
Are you setting or calling any code beforehand that could be reliant to these dlls?
I can edit and modify some code, but I'm not a developer.
Just a shot in the dark here...
Not sure if there is any restrictions on the dlls based on how you created the context or connection.
Examples from firstapp:
CS_CONTEXT *context;
CS_CONNECTION *connection;
CS_RETCODE ret;
context = NULL;
ret = cs_ctx_alloc(EX_CTLIB_VERSION, &context);
ret = ct_init(context, EX_CTLIB_VERSION);
ret = ct_con_alloc(context, &connection);
ret = ct_connection(connection, NULL, 0);
Talking with someone still in the SDK group...
Are you using CS_VERSION_XXX?
Could try changing this value to see if the older version will work with your code.
ct_init - CS_VERSION_XXX:
SyBooks Online
You could open a case with BC-SYB-SDK.
They would request the make file you are creating this with and maybe look at your actual code to reproduce.
