Re: Pro*C executable

I have been told that shared libraries/dynamic linking is the solution, and that Oracle will be supporting them in 7.2. Again, I have no "Official" word. Lots of us are buying disk right now.

If there is an Oracle document stating release dates for dynamic/shared libraries by platform, I'd like to see a copy posted here.
