Now that our export problem is out of the way in upgrading from Oracle 7.0.16 to 7.2.3 in an HPUX 9 environment, we need to fix at least one program which uses the OCI.
The linker, /bin/ld, comes back with many new unresolved symbols which were never a problem under 7.0.16.
Here's a sample of the unsatisfied symbols:
lxmcpcx, lxhcrenv, lxlsaved, lxmopen, lxmcpen, ....
There are about 50 unresolved symbols in all. Maybe there are new libraries we have to use? The documentation I saw might be good for gurus, but for someone who has just been thrust into this role rather suddenly, well, I don't know what to do....
Actually, I can still compile if I set $ORACLE_HOME to the old 7.0.16 stuff, and it runs fine under 7.2.3, but this is not an acceptable long-term solution.
