This chapter describes Windows NT-specific issues for applications developers.
Specific topics discussed are:
To compile and link a Pro*C program:
Library | Located in... |
---|---|
XA80.LIB |
ORACLE_HOME\RDBMS80\XA |
ORA803.LIB |
ORACLE_HOME\OCI80\LIB |
SQLLIB80.LIB |
ORACLE_HOME\PRO80\LIB\MSVC |
|
or |
|
ORACLE_HOME\PRO80\LIB\BORLAND |
To compile and link an OCI program:
Library | Located in... |
---|---|
XA80.LIB |
ORACLE_HOME\RDBMS80\XA |
ORA803.LIB |
ORACLE_HOME\OCI80\LIB\MSVC |
|
or |
|
ORACLE_HOME\OCI80\LIB\BORLAND |
See the following general information about XA and TP monitors:
For more information about the Oracle XA Library, see the chapter "Oracle XA" of the Oracle8 Server Application Developer's Guide.
The XA Application Program Interface (API) is typically used to enable an Oracle8 database to interact with a transaction processing (TP) monitor, such as:
The Oracle XA Library is automatically installed as part of the Oracle8 Enterprise Edition installation option. The following components are created in your Oracle home directory:
Component | Location |
---|---|
XA80.DLL |
ORACLE_HOME\BIN |
XA80.LIB |
ORACLE_HOME\RDBMS80\XA |
XA.H |
ORACLE_HOME\RDBMS80\XA |
You can also use TP monitor statements in your client programs. The use of the XA API is also supported from both Pro*C and Oracle Call Interface (OCI). In either case, the XA80.DLL must be contained in the execution path of the calling program.
