[cx-oracle-users] cx_Oracle build on AIX 5.3 with xlc_R

[Anurag C. <anu...@gm...>]

Dear cx-Oracle users,

I am having problems compiling cx-Oracle version 5.0.3 on a AIX Machine. I
would appreciate if someone could please help me.

I downloaded the source from http://cx-oracle.sourceforge.net/

When building using python setup.py build, i get the following error
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have tried using gcc and cc and g++ as the compiler instead but all of
them give error. Here is the error

Hi,

>From the error and the location it is complaining about it looks like
the XLC compiler does not understand // as comment characters. That's
not something I'm prepared to "fix". There might be
a setting you can use to make the compiler understand those
characters. Or you can use gcc as you attempted to do. From your log
it looks like only warnings were issued which can often be safely
ignored. I know others have built successfully on AIX so hopefully
they will come out of the woodwork and clue you in. :-) A quick search
of the archives shows a number of people asking questions and some of
the replies might be enlightening to you. Good luck!

[Anurag C. <anu...@gm...>]

Hi Anthony,

I can confirm that I was able to solve this. Following your advice I
continued compiling and with gcc it finally worked. I don't care if it does
not compile with xlc_r.......gcc compiles it best.

Thanks for all your guidance.

Regards,
Anurag
