AW: UNIX : script help/input
Hi Speaking of Perl, ... maybe somebody (Jared) can help out with some Perl / Windows problems: I'm using ActiveState 5.6 with DBI module, which works fine. Now, since I basically work within a CygWin environment on my laptop, I installed perl there, but there are no DBI modules. The basic problem is, that in order to get the DBI stuff compiled within cygwin, you would need a unix/cygwin wrapper for the OCI dlls, which are common windows dlls coming with the Oracle client (9.2.0.4) in order to import OCI stuff correctly, which is needed by DBI (at least I think so). The dlltool doesn't really help me here, since the dlls supplied by Oracle seem to be stripped (at least, dlltool can't find any symbols). If I try: $ nm oci.dll | grep ' T _' | sed 's/.* T _//' oci.def I only get: nm: oci.dll: no symbols Does anybody have an idea how to use the windows oci (or any other Oracle dll) from cygwin ? Otherwise I can also go ahead and toss out cygwin, since accessing Oracle is basically all I need it for.

As I just finished writing a prototype package for assigning MAC addresses ( we make network stuff - that's a technical term ), I have endured the agonies of doing hex math in PL/SQL. I finally bit the bullet and used string manipulation to convert hex to decimal and do what I needed that way. Couldn't get BITAND to work properly on very large integers. Besides, doing XOR with BITAND in PL/SQL is very painful. UTL_RAW has an XOR, but it requires RAW values and I didn't feel like messing with it. This is all very simple in Perl. Given a MAC of 5AA, with a fixed portion of 500, it is very easy to determine the variable portion of the address via $x = 0x5AA ^ 500. Not quite so simple in PL/SQL.

A search on 'cygwin perl dbi oracle' revealed a number of URL's that may be helpful.
