Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.misc -> OCI Application compatibility
Hi,
We have developed an OCI application for Oracle8i. When we ran it on 9.0.1, we faced some nasty problems. We had to recompile the source with 9.0.1 header files and 9.0.1 library. Then it worked for 9.0.1. Now same thing happened with 9.2. OCI application compiled with 9.0.1 headers and 9.0.1 libraries crashed. We again had to recompile the source with 9.2 header files and 9.2 libraries. Then it worked fine.
So what has happened is, we face some problems and then realize that we need to recompile it with new header and library. This is not a good situation.
Question here is:
1. When do we decide that now it's the time, we should recompile the
OCI Application with latest headers/libraries?
2. Is there any way I can make OCI Application backward compatible on
9.0.1/9.2 (Compatible to 8i)
Thanks in advance,
Vinayak
