[PHP-DB] Compiling with Oracle(8) Support From: Jochen Schnapka (Jochen_Schnapka <email protected>)
Date: 12/14/00

Hi.

I think, this question was posed quite often, but I didn't find a good
answer in the archives...

The problem:
I'm trying to compile PHP (4.0.3pl1) on BSD/OS 4.1 with Oracle Support.

Now, I thought, PHP knew about Oracle-specific stuff, but it doesn't.
'configure' is asking for the installed Oracle-DB. But the Oracle-DB is
running on another WinNT-System and I am not sure, if they have any header
files lying around there.

Is it nescessary to have Oracle locally available to compile PHP or is
there a way to work around. It would contradict to my understanding of
'Database Access over Network' in which I should not be required to know
everything about the database internals in order to compile something to
communicate with the database.

Could I use some generic DB support to have a kind of limited access to an
Oracle DB ??

Thanks, ~~~:-Jochen Schnapka
