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

[Anthony T. <ant...@gm...>]

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!

Anthony
