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

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

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
