Recompile. The APIs are identical, so you're just dealing with the
processor architecture difference.
David, thank you for your feedback and sense of humour.
Nothing like a silly question when you recognize you know nothing and
assume nothing.
If I take an application running on SUN/Solaris 10 with Oracle 10g,
mostly some scripts for batch processing, plus Oracle with PL/SQL
stored procedures and take it to OpenSolaris, I just have to copy. I
assume for my batch calling Cobol, I would just re-compile. In other
words, a trivial task. correct?
