As you may know, Personal Oracle 7.2 for NT include an API called OCI (Oracle Call Interface). This is used to access the Oracle database. This is a C API . It consists of some .h files , a DLL (ociw32.dll) and OCIw32.lib The ociw32.lib is intended for MSVC users. So my question is that how can I link my program with OCI library if I use CYGNUS-WIN32 ? how gcc and ld deal with .LIB libary files ( not .a library file)? My email address is mlg@spacebel.be Thank you very much for any help, Regards, mlg - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
