Does Oracle intent to maintain the Pro*Cobol in the market?

With the new power languages like java, the Pro*Cobol segment will survive in news releases?

HI
It will still support Cobol in order to cater to the clients who are still in mainframe systems and those clients who have their legacy systems in Cobol.

  • Does Oracle 8i personal edition has Pro*C ?

    Does Oracle 8i personal edition has Pro C precompiler in it? I installed Oracle 8i but removed it long back so forgot if it has ProC in it... If its not there, is it available somewhere to download from? Thanks.

    Oracle8i client installation will provide you with the Pro*C pre-compiler.

  • Unable to locate the Pro Cobol Compiler

    I'm installed Oracle 9i client using Oracle 9.2.0.2.0 for HP-UX.
    The Pro Cobol compiler is not present in any of the installation options.
    Where can I download Oracle Pro Cobol compiler for Oracle 9.2.0.2.0 for HP-UX?
    G-

    after some research I found out that the Pro Cobol compiler is not available on the HP Itanium for version 9.2.0.1, 9.2.0.2 and 9.2.0.3. I will not be available until 9.2.0.4 or later per Oracle on Metalink

    If both computers were configured identically, then they would both lose the same amount of battery life with respect to the same starting configuration - comparing apple to apples. I don't know how much the added RAM, etc. would reduce battery life, but it would be less for both models.
    Battery life is a tricky subject because most mfgr.s like to suggest as long a life as possible, but often do so under a set of conditions that are not common to most users. Apple is no different. Their computers do have good battery life, however. But not likely as long as what is in the ads for the typical user.

  • HT4413 To transfer everything from my Mac mini to a new Mac Pro do I need two displays? Once I have confirmed my mini is open while pressing T can I then disconnect my Cinema Display from the mini and connect it to the Pro to continue the transfer?

    Can I set up my Mac mini to transfer its contents to a new Mac Pro and then disconnect my Cinema Display and use it connected to the Pro to complete the transfer?  Do I actually need two displays to manage the transfer?

    It helps have 2 monitors, so that you can monitor data XFER, just my experience. If nothing else it allows you keep am eye on what is going on.

  • HT3820 once registered, the "pro" features are not turned on even though the "Pro" appears on the Quicktime icon.

    After downloading quicktime 7, I entered the registration code. The "pro" appeared on the quicktime logo and the "buy QT Pro" button went away however the pro features are not "on" or usable.

    After downloading quicktime 7, I entered the registration code. The "pro" appeared on the quicktime logo and the "buy QT Pro" button went away however the pro features are not "on" or usable.
    Did you open/load a file to the app? The "Pro" features are context adaptive and only "turn on" if content is both available and the feature can be applied to the particular type of content loaded.

  • NVL2 in pro cobol giving the error.

    For some reason we are getting an compiler error when we use NVL2 function in embedded sql statement in a pro-cobol module. Here is the output from the compiler. Do we have to add any options to recognize the new functions/keywords?

    Thanks,

    I'm not familiar with Pro*Cobol, but there's a similar issue with Pro*C, the parser does not recognize this built-in function. Given workaround is:
    1) Use NVL() instead of NVL2().
    2) Use Dynamic Sql in Pro*C. For example:
    EXEC SQL EXECUTE
    declare
    v_var varchar2(100);
    BEGIN
    execute immediate 'select nvl2(user, user, 'N/A') from dual' into v_var;
    END;
    END-EXEC;
    If that doesn't help, you should contact Oracle support.

  • Why does Oracle SQL query returning a date field without the time component

    Hi,
    I'm a novice SQL user & hv just installed Oracle SQL developer (Version 3.0.04, Build MAIN-04.34).
    I made the same SQL query using "Oracle SQL developer" & "TOAD for Oracle 9.0.1" but I got 2 different format on the same date field:
    On TOAD, I get the date field extracted as *04/26/2011 23:12:58*
    On Oracle, I get the date field extracted as *26/APR/11*
    Why is the Oracle result in a different format & missing the time component?
    Is there any option/preference that I need to set in Oracle SQL developer to get the full date/time format displayed?
    I've tried to set my the date format to DD/MON/RR HH12:MI:SSXFF AM under the preference -> database NLS but I still get the same format!
    Plse help!

  • Pro*Cobol abort without information...

    Not the correct forum for your question - this one deals with general RDBMS questions. Not general Oracle product questions.
    Have a look at the manual and at precompiler settings. By default ERRORS=YES, which means full error listing to the terminal when compiling. If this is set to NO, you will need to look in the log file for full error details. From your description, this setting would seem to be set to NO.
    Or this is how I understand from my quick look at the Pro*COBOL® Programmer's Guide. (documentation portal at http://tahiti.oracle.com)

    Hello,
    Reason: Your data might contain some foreign characters [non-english] ie., your server nls_lang settings might be different to the client nls_lang settings, as a result the new nls_lang characters will occupy extra bytes because of which even though it is apparent that you are using around 2000 bytes you may be using more than 4000 bytes. Examples Japanese characters seem to take 2 bytes per character, similarly russian takes 3 bytes per character.
    The ojdbc14.jar seems to be doing some check on this and if the characters are more than 4000 bytes it gives u the ora-01461 error but the new 10G ojdbc14.jar allows this.
    On the other hand you may be genuinely trying to insert more than 4000 bytes characters into varchar [example trying to insert the text values into a varchar()]
    You may want to try this:
    * Please download ojdbc14.jar from
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/index.htmla>
    * Replace the old $omwb_home/lib/ojdbc14.jar with the ojdbc14.jar that you have downloaded in the step above.
    Try a capture now.
    Thank you.
