I thought I would
post this here first before seeking more experienced ears for this particular
strangness.
I have Python 2.4.2
installed from source on a dual processor dell server. These are x86_64
processors (verified by /bin/arch) (aka emt64 extensions).
uname -a
gives
Linux eps-linuxserv3
2.6.5-7.244-smp #1 SMP Mon Dec 12 18:32:25 UTC 2005 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64
GNU/Linux
The flavor of Linux
is 64 bit SUSE SLES 9 with the latest updates.
Now for the
strangeness. I'm using DCOracle2 (can't use anything else, as this is the
corporate standard) also compiled from source. When calling executemany() when
any parameter is of type int, I get a OverflowError. I turned on debug
traces in DCOracle2; this indicated that PyArg_ParseTuple() was returning
sizeof(int) = 4 bytes. DCOracle2 is compiled such that sizeof(int) = 8
bytes.
Python itself
gives,
python -c "import
sys; print sys.maxint"
9223372036854775807
9223372036854775807
Therefore,
indicating that the size of int is 8 bytes.
So I'll go out on a
limb here and assume that this is a python problem...but I don't know where to
take it...
