I have seen this problem on Red Hat as well. Specifically, "Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 4)". I believe I know what the root cause is. The problem occurs with instantclient 10.2.0.3. Perl is getting its compile options (among other things) by reading 'macros' (i.e. 'make' variables) from the sdk/demo/demo.mk file. If you grep for 'ifdef' in that file, you will see these lines: ifdef BUILD_CCC296 ifdef BUILD_ICC Now, if you look at the Makefile.PL with in DBD-Oracle, you'll see that it extracts settings from demo.mk using the function fetch_oci_macros(). This function manually parses the makefile looking for macros that are defined in it. The problem is, this manual parsing does not honor 'ifdef's! So even though BUILD_CCC296 is not defined, the settings guarded by it are getting loaded.

Excuse my ignorance on all things c compiler. I have looked at the code and I am not sure what you want? Do you want me to change the parser so it will parse and include 'ifdef' or do you want to exclued all 'ifdef' statements? On Thu Oct 11 15:23:28 2007, adrianmonk wrote: Show quoted text

There is no way I know of to fix this issue since there is no way of knowing whether BUILD_CCC296 etc should be defined or not. We could assume all macros are false but I think this would just be equally wrong but the other way around. Martin -- Martin J. Evans Wetherby, UK

There's not much we can do at this point. Closing.
