If anyone's keeping a FAQ for this group, this one's a biggie ...

This is not documented nor supported by Oracle, however, Borland C++ will work to create Windows applications. It will NOT work for either protected or real mode MSDOS applications. Precompile and compile your application in the normal way and then at link time, add the SQL13WIN import library to the link step. For Windows OCI programs, add ORA6WIN.LIB at link time.

I don't speak for my employer, obviously. Received on Fri Jul 24 1992 - 22:23:41 CEST
