John,
I've tested your DBD::Oracle 1.20 against both PA-RISC and Itanium
Machines with the 32 bit versions of 5.8.8 perl. Those worked fine as I
reported back to you.

As you know on the HP-UX machine you have both 32 and 64 bit versions and
that includes static or dynamic modes. It all depends on how it is set.
Usually the 32 bit version revert to the PA 1.1 architecture and not the
PA 2.0 architecture.

Now, I have to have the PA 2.0 64 bit & dynamic perl used for your
DBD::Oracle 1.20 running. Nothing has chanced except to change the perl
path to reflect 64 bit and dynamic.. The gcc 4.2.2 is the same. And
the Oracle 10 g is the same. And the HP-UX is still 11i Version 2.

I can change (in my environment) the export
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/baloneypie and it still reverts to:

ora01/app/oracle/product/10.2/lib:/lib/pa20_64

The most madding thing is that 32-bit link message. What 32-bit link???
I did a file command on everything in the library links and they're all
64 bit
as they're suppose to be. Still trying to find it with the Perl
Debugger.

root@wsmisdb2> file /ora01/app/oracle/product/10.2/lib/libclntsh.sl
/ora01/app/oracle/product/10.2/lib/libclntsh.sl: ELF-64 shared
object file - PA-RISC 2.0 (LP64)
root@wsmisdb2>

I just used that as an example. Of course you know that ld handles both
32 and 64 bit code.

Should I start taking code out of the makefile do to with -shared
static-libgcc ??? Or removing the gcc -Wl,+b or

Making sure the stuff passed to gcc -Wl,+b$1 comes from a different
place???

Or ??????

Any other comment.. Is DBD::Oracle 1.20 suppose to run in 64 bit mode???

Wondering because during my first contact with you on DBD::Oracle 1.19 I
had the exact same problem and error on HP UX v1 running in 64 bit.

Thank You and Cheers
Rich
p.s. fyi gcc 4.2.3 and the new 4.2.3 library just came out on the HP UX
porting site
