Hi all, first of all, I am no C professional, so please forgive me if I am not specifiying everthing as correct as neede, I am asking this on behalf of a colleague of mine. He has run into some problems in a plsql procedure, while moving to from Oracle 7.3.4 to Oracle 8.0.6. In one of his C applications he is performing a checksum, by just adding values. This still works ok, when he uses his C application. Now, he is in the need to replicate his simple checksum routine in plsql. That works ok under 7.3.4, but gives an overflow under 8.06. He is using the datatype PLS_INTEGER / PLS_BINARY, whereas PLS_BINARY is to be told, not to check an overflow (like it is under C), but it does.... :-( Is there any equivalent datatype (and handling of overflows) to the C long datatype (dWord unsigned). hope I made the problem understandable
