Resolution:
The error regarding piPidLength is resolved in Net Express and Server Express 5.0 WP4.
Generally, if you receive errors regarding DB2Initialize, you will need to compile your application with the DB2(UDB-VERSION=x) compiler directive, where x should be :
V8 : DB2 v8.x
V9 : DB2 v9.1
V95 : DB2 v9.5
You can determine the version of the DB2 client software by invoking
