RE: PRO*C compiling AIX 5.3

Hi Peter and all.

Thank you for your reply.

I just did an install of the 9.2.0.8 patchset, which upgraded and relinked everything.

The same problem occurred with pro*c on the standards.h file.

I then relinked the precompilers and the shared client libraries.

Same error.

It might have something to do with the AIX patchsets. Metalink lists a whole bunch, and I will have the sysadmins on the machine check that we have them.

Comments?
