[Q] Compatibility of Oracle Pro*C and C++

[the fist half of this posting was missing, here is the full text]  

Hi Netters,  

Does anybody out there have any experience using Oracle's Pro*C compilers with C++, or more specifically with Microsoft Visual C++.  

The Oracle folks say that Pro*C will work with Microsoft C Version 7 and the Microsoft people say that therefore it should work with Microsoft C Version 8 (which is what they call the C/C++ compiler that comes with Visual C++).  

I figure that I would have to use the precompilers to help me build a C library of functions that to talk to the database. I'd then have to call these functions from my C++ program. Is it that difficult? Or, is it impossible!? I won't have the configuration to give it a try for a couple of weeks...  

If anybody has any experience with this kind of thing I'd love to hear about it.  

Thanks,
Dave
