We had been experiencing problems getting a program written in Ada using ObjectAda 7.1 on Windows NT to connect to an Oracle 8 database. Executables developed using MSVC++ written with Pro*C and also OCI would connect just fine, but linking the same libraries to make an Ada program would result in a connection failed error with ORA-06413, Connection Not Open. Same problem appeared when we tried to write an program in Ada to connect using ODBC.

It turned out that the problem was related to parentheses in the path that the executable was located in. ObjectAda created a subdirectory like the following:

E:\Ada\ODBC Test\ODBC Test-Win32(Intel)-Debug\

The parenthesis portion "(Intel)" apparently confused Net8 when it tried to create a connect descriptor with the path to the executable program, which resulted in error ORA-06413. We moved the excutable to another directory without () and it worked fine.
