I installed DBI-1.37 and DBD-Oracle-1.14 under a customized directory(not under /usr/perl5 which is the default directory) and I see the following files installed. I would like to know the minimum list of files that will be required for DBI and DBD so that we can have only the required files while bundling them in our product. For example, we are not using oraperl, hence we need not bundle oraperl.pm in our product.
That's a pretty old version of DBI - 20 releases out of date. So, run on Solaris 10 and monitor which files gets used by your product. Are you sure you are space-constrained enough to warrant worrying about it? Won't it be easier for customers to do field upgrades if the installation is of complete modules? Kindly help us as we need to finalise on this quickly.

You might not need the Win32 stuff; you might not need the DBI headers (but then again, you might if you ever needed to upgrade in the field). You might not need ... but I think you're being penny-wise and pound-foolish. -------- Original Message --------
Subject: URGENT help required : Compile/build requirements for DBI - 1.37 and DBD-Oracle- 1.14 Date: Mon, 25 Jun 2007 16:36:42 +0530 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Tim Bunce <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> We need to bundle DBI -1.37 and DBD-Oracle-1.14 in our product. Our product is supported on Solaris 8, 9 and 10 (sparc architecture). Are there any architecture specific or OS specific source code in DBI or DBD-Oracle that we have to build them on every OS or architecture? We are assuming that if we compile DBI and DBD-Oracle source on Solaris 8, it should work fine with Solaris 9 and 10 as well. Is our assumption correct? Please help.
Most probably, if the Perl works and the Oracle works on all three (and Perl will; Oracle I won't answer for), then DBI and DBD::Oracle will too. Will the Oracle database be installed in a fixed location on all machines? -- Jonathan Leffler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> #include <disclaimer.h> Guardian of DBD::Informix - v2007.0226 - http://dbi.perl.org "Blessed are we who can laugh at ourselves, for we shall never cease to be amused."
