Re: [cx-oracle-users] Problem with Python 2.5 and named bind variables

[Paul M. <pau...@gm...>]

I have just run into this problem on Linux x86_64, with the symptoms
exactly as reported previously.

I suspect that it comes down to the difference between int and
Py_ssize_t.  Building cx_Oracle-4.2.1 produces (among others) the
warnings

Cursor.c: In function 'Cursor_SetBindVariables':
Cursor.c:937: warning: passing argument 2 of 'PyDict_Next' from
incompatible pointer type
Cursor.c: In function 'Cursor_PerformBind':
Cursor.c:972: warning: passing argument 2 of 'PyDict_Next' from
incompatible pointer type
Cursor.c: In function 'Cursor_SetInputSizes':
Cursor.c:1793: warning: passing argument 2 of 'PyDict_Next' from
incompatible pointer type

Changing all of these int's to Py_ssize_t's fixes the bind variable problem.
