[EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, August 20, 2002 9:43 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hi all, Does anybody know how Oracle determines what extproc to use when making an external call through a listener? I've got one working, which is great, but nowhere in the listener or tnsnames is there any kind of binding to a particular sid, other than to a HOME, and the library def and c code don't seem to be making use of tnsnames in the traditional since, in that I can change the identifier to anything and it just keeps running. If I have multiple HOMES and differing releases, how can I be sure that a call is picking the right listener. I'm really hoping I'm missing something obvious, but I haven't worked these things before and am not seeing it in the M or the code I have access too.
