Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> multiple Oracle homes under NT
On a UNIX box, when I have multiple Oracle homes, I set the
ORACLE_HOME variable to the home I'm using, and my path
references ORACLE_HOME/bin. That way, I'm assurred of
running the executables associated with that specific Oracle
home. What about on NT? In the past, the release number was
appended to the EXE name, and that kept everything straight.
If I was doing an export, I would run exp73 or exp80
depending on whether I was using 7.3 or 8.0. But now, with
Oracle8i, the release numbers are no longer part of the
executable name. How then, do I easily switch between Oracle
homes? Do I need to redefine my path each time? Has anyone
hit this question yet?
