Hi, I have oracle 8 personal edition (ora8p) with OCI80 installed on WinNT.
I have DBD-Oracle-1.15 and running in cygwin downloaded in the last 90 days. perl Makefile.PL can't find the Oracle version number. Not a problem, apparently. But, LobWriteAppend is in an ifdef for V8_SYNTAX. Dropping V8_SYNTAX creates even more problems. If I comment out OCILobWriteAppend, then the database updates don't work. Can you please help me fix this. Thanks. make (-f Makefile) generates the following. David p.s.
