I was able to get DBD-Oracle-1.16 to read and write the new Oracle 10
types BINARY_FLOAT and BINARY_DOUBLE with just a few small changes. I
also found a problem with Makefile.PL where it couldn't seem to
recognize the client_version output from sqlplus for Oracle 10.2, it
does now and still works with the earlier versions I tested against on
RH Linux.
What follows are the diff files for Makefile.PL, dbdimp.c and oci8.c .
I would attach the edited files but I'm not sure how this mailer handles
attachments to usenet posts. The edited files are available for now at
http://home.fnal.gov/~dbox/DBD-Oracle-1.16/
Cheers,
Dennis
