ID: 37284 User updated by: jnavratil at houston dot rr dot com Reported By: jnavratil at houston dot rr dot com -Status: Feedback +Status: Open Bug Type: Compile Failure Operating System: Solaris 8 PHP Version: 5.1.3 New Comment:
If Oracle 8 support is to be dropped (not unreasonable, though unfortunate), then we probably need to update the documentation which claims support for Oracle 7 and 8. That said, I was reading oci8.c and determined that the offending routine checks the server connection status and is used prior to attempting to "ping" the server as part of a check to see if the server hasn't dropped the connection. If that is so, could the 'php_oci_connection_status()' routine simply return success (i.e. '1') and let the ping use OCIServerVersion to test the connection? I will test this approach on my 8.0.5 machine, although no program is ever proven correct through testing. Assuming you think this approach is justified, can you think of a way to determine which major/minor version introduced these preprocessor variables. My searches have been inconclusive. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-05-02 20:38:43] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unfortunately I don't have Oracle8, so I can't test and/or fix it. I should also note that it was decided to drop Oracle8 support, but I think the patch could be accepted. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-05-02 20:30:27] jnavratil at houston dot rr dot com (Got OS wrong initially) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-05-02 20:27:39] jnavratil at houston dot rr dot com Description: ------------ oci8.c references undeclared OCI_ATTR_SERVER_STATUS and OCI_SERVER_NORMAL which are not defined in Oracle 8.0.5 headers (they appear to have been first defined in 9i). The result is a compile failure of oci8.c. Reproduce code: --------------- configure --with-oci8=${ORACLE_HOME} make Expected result: ---------------- build of oci8 extension.
