Re: Compiling DBD::Oracle 1.17 with LD_RUN_PATH

Oracle changed the internal location/mapping/bundleing of some thier binaly files.

Specifally the libclntsh.so file is now bundled in the libclntsh.so.10.1 file (depending on which client)

Pehaps we can use LD_RUN_PATH instead in the next version of DBD::Oracle

I will look into this.

Subject: Compiling DBD::Oracle 1.17 with LD_RUN_PATH


I had just built and installed DBD::Oracle 1.17, and I found that I couldn't
use it unless I had LD_LIBRARY_PATH set in my environment. However, with an
installation of DBD::Oracle 1.06, I didn't need LD_LIBRARY_PATH set.

It turns out that the Makefile for 1.06 sets LD_RUN_PATH, which then gets
included in the compiled Oracle.so file, making LD_LIBRARY_PATH unnecessary.
The Makefile for 1.17, on the other hand, doesn't set LD_RUN_PATH.

By setting LD_RUN_PATH in my environment, I was able to build 1.17 with the
path included in Oracle.so.

I'm curious why this change in behavior occured.

thanks,
Ronald
