GNU gcc and Oracle 10g/11g on Solaris x86-64- examples?

We are looking at developing an Oracle database app on the above platform. We have the Solaris Studio 12.2, but one of the programmers has a visual impairment which makes using the GUI difficult.
I "think" one might be able to use the GNU gcc series compilers ( which she is familiar with) to develop an app that runs on Solaris, and accesses the database on the same server using the Oracle libraries, but I am unclear on the details. Can someone point me in the right direction to get the information needed, or sample code for using the gcc compilers for database access????

I believe you can use gcc for developing Oracle database programs on Solaris. But the best place to ask about database development is in an Oracle database forum:
http://forums.oracle.com/forums/main.jspa?categoryID=84
and look under the Database entry.

  • Help with oracle 10g install on solaris x86

    hi, i downloaded solaris 10 from oracle site (sol-10-u8-ga-x86-dvd.iso) and i have installed it on vmware. i was going through the installation guide for oracle 10 for solaris x86 and while on the pre-installation steps, i issued this command
    # /bin/isainfo -kv
    and it gave me
    # 64-bit amd64 kernel modules
    instead of
    # 32-bit i386 kernel modules
    as the guide expected.
    please what can i do, cos the guide says if i dont see the later, the installation cannot complete.
    thnx

    First check you Operating System Bit information whether it is 64 or 32 bit , for this first check any of the command path
    Example ls command
    $ which ls
    /usr/sbin/ls
    $ file /usr/sbin/ls
    It will show you whether your OS is 64 bit or 32 bit and accordingly download the software from below link ,if it is showing 64 bit os then you have to download 64 bit database software .

  • Which 10g release supports Solaris x86 version 10?

    Hi,
    I downloaded Oracle 10.1.0.3 for Solaris x86. When I installed it, I got error, saying I can only install this version on Solaris 9 x86. Do you have any idea which Oracle 10g version supports Solaris x86 version 10?
    Thanks
    L

    Hi,
    If we believe metalink, Oracle 10gR1 is already certified for Solaris x86
    Solaris Operating System x86 Version 10
    Oracle Database - Enterprise Edition Version 10g
    Status: Certified
    Certification Note:
    Install Information:
    o 1. Execute runInstaller with the -ignoreSysPrereqs option.
    o 2. Select 'Do not create a starter database' when installing Oracle 10g.
    o 3. During installation, the warning message 'SUNWsprox package not installed' can be ignored. Press Continue to resume the installation.
    o 4. Download and install patch 4186426 from metalink.oracle.com after installing Oracle 10g software.
    o 5. If you have an End User Solaris 10 distribution, install the SUNWuiu8 package prior to installing the 10g client.
    Have you run installer like recommended in point 1 ?
    For 10gR2, you need to wait december for certification.
    Nicolas.

  • Slow Problems with Oracle Forms 10g and Oracle Database 11g

    Hi, I wonder if there is a compatibility problem between Version 10.1.2.0.2 32 Oracle Forms and Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production. This is because my application runs correctly on a version of Oracle Database 10g, and when we migrated the database to an Oracle Database 11g, slowness problems came out.
    Thanks.

    We have the same issue happening with our custom forms and with some of the standard forms in EBSO. So far we have found that the form invoking a view causes ridiculous slowness in opening the form (40 mins). Using a table access has shortened the open time significantly. At this time Oracle DBAs at OOD have no clear idea why it is happening.
    we are on 11.1 database with 11.5 EBSO

  • How do I map Hitachi SAN LUNs to Solaris 10 and Oracle 10g ASM?

    Hi all,
    I am working on an Oracle 10g RAC and ASM installation with Sun E6900 servers attached to a Hitachi SAN for shared storage with Sun Solaris 10 as the server OS. We are using Oracle 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3) RAC clusterware
    for the clustering software and raw devices for shared storage and Veritas VxFs 4.1 filesystem.
    My question is this:
    How do I map the raw devices and LUNs on the Hitachi SAN to Solaris 10 OS and Oracle 10g RAC ASM?
    I am aware that with an Oracle 10g RAC and ASM instance, one needs to configure the ASM instance initialization parameter file to set the asm_diskstring setting to recognize the LUNs that are presented to the host.
    I know that Sun Solaris 10 uses /dev/rdsk/CwTxDySz naming convention at the OS level for disks. However, how would I map this to Oracle 10g ASM settings?
    I cannot find this critical piece of information ANYWHERE!!!!
    Thanks for your help!

    Yes that is correct however due to use of Solaris 10 MPxIO multipathing software that we are using with the Hitachi SAN it does present an extra layer of complexity and issues with ASM configuration. Which means that ASM may get confused when it attempts to find the new LUNs from the Hitachi SAN at the Solaris OS level. Oracle Metalink note 396015.1 states this issue.
    So my question is this: how to configure the ASM instance initialization parameter asm_diskstring to recognize the new Hitachi LUNs presented to the Solaris 10 host?
    Lets say that I have the following new LUNs:
    /dev/rdsk/c7t1d1s6
    /dev/rdsk/c7t1d2s6
    /dev/rdsk/c7t1d3s6
    /dev/rdsk/c7t1d4s6
    Would I set the ASM initialization parameter for asm_diskstring to /dev/rdsk/c7t1d*s6
    as correct setting so that the ASM instance recognizes my new Hitachi LUNs? Solaris needs to map these LUNs using pseudo devices in the Solaris OS for ASM to recognize the new disks.
    How would I set this up in Solaris 10 with Sun multipathing (MPxIO) and Oracle 10g RAC ASM?
    I want to get this right to avoid the dreaded ORA-15072 errors when creating a diskgroup with external redundancy for the Oracle 10g RAC ASM installation process.

  • When will Oracle 10g/11g support Windows Server 2008 and AIX6.1

    Hi all
    I'm sorry if I post it in a wrong place... But I really want to know when will Oracle 10g/11g support Windows Server 2008 and AIX 6.1?
    I've searched in metalink but found nothing useful. Is there anybody can give me a link of Oracle's roadmap for platform support?
    Thanks!

    Oracle does not announce release dates and neither
    does any other software company.But Oracle does have a very good track record of supporting their products on new windows releases extremely close to the windows release date. Clearly they can't support on an unreleased platform though. Given that the launch of Server 2008 isn't even complete worldwide yet (19th March in the UK for example) it would seem that this enquiry is a little premature.

  • Oracle 10g/11g to Sql Server 2005 Migration

    Dear All,
    I am a beginner to this migration Activities..
    We have designed one Application which is havin Database as Oracle 10g.
    and We had another small Application which is having Sql Server 2005 has Database.
    Daily we need to convert DB of Oracle to Sql server DB in order to acces recent updated data..
    Pls help me how to convert Database in Oracle 10g/11g to Database in sqlserver 2005..

    Hello,
    this is an Oracle forum and we are handling here migrations from foreign databases to an Oracle database.
    For migrations in the other direction, in your case from Oracle to MS SQL Server, you need to read the Microsoft pages, e.g.:
    http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2005/en/us/migration.aspx
    Daily we need to convert DB of Oracle to Sql server DB in order to acces recent updated data..Normally a migration is not a daily process, so I guess that you just want to transfer data from Oracle to SQL Server on a daily basis. If that is the case, you should consider to use our Gateways. Please start reading here:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/gateways/index-100140.html
    Using the Database Gateway for MS SQL Server (DG4MSQL) or the Database Gateway for ODBC (DG4ODBC) you can copy your data from your Oracle database to your SQL Server database, using a database link in the Oracle database.
    Please let me know whether this answer helped you.
    Regards

  • Oracle 10G/11G with JBuilder

    Hi Gurus,
    I am new bie in the Java development world. I am looking for purchasing a laptop on which I can install Oracle (either 10G or 11G does not matter) and JBuilder as the project on which I am going to work on uses JBuilder tool.
    I have two questions
    1) Is Windows 8 comptaible with Oracle 10G or 11G ?
    2) Also can I install JBuilder on a Windows 8 Laptop ?
    Regards
    Fm

    Thanks Timo for getting back to me so promptly. I do understand that this forum is not for JBuilder as Oracle uses JDeveloper to do the same stuff.
    But can u specifically answer my question
    1) Is Windows 8 compatible with Oracle 10G/ 11G ?
    2) Assuming if its not yet compatible with Oracle 11G. Can we safely install JBuilder on Windows 7 and use it with Oracle 10G.
    Please advise. I value advise from experts like you.
    Cheers !

  • Oracle 10g / 11g is ROLAP/MOLAP/HOLAP?

    Hi Greets,
    Can any one please tell me whethe the available version of Oracle 10G /11g OLAP
    is ROLAP or MOLAP or HOLAP.
    Thanks
    Anandraj

    The OLAP Option is highly integrated with the Oracle database by this stage (11.1). Metadata is stored in the data dictionary and the primary access mechanism is SQL. So traditional terms like ROLAP, MOLAP, and HOLAP are getting hard to apply. But at a broad level you could say the following.
    ROLAP was supported in 10g based on CwM metadata and the Java OLAP API as query tool. (Both Discoverer for OLAP and the Excel Add-In use the Java OLAP API.) CwM was deprecated in 10.2 and ROLAP in general has received no new development for years. So while it technically still works in 11g, I would not recommend it.
    MOLAP (i.e. the Analytic Workspace) is supported in both 10g and 11g. In 10g the metadata is managed by AWXML, and in 11g it is managed using by the OLAP API. In both cases you can access the data via SQL, the OLAP API, or OLAP DML. In 11g you can also integrate with the Materialized View system.
    The MOLAP implementation is faster and more scalable than the ROLAP version, and all development and future plans centre around MOLAP.

  • Oracle 10g/11g database use on UEK versus Red Hat kernel? How widely used?

    Greetings
    is there any official or semi-official information regarding how widely used is Oracle UEK to run Oracle 10g/11g database (RAC or single-node) versus running Oracle database on Red Hat Linux or on Oracle Linux with Red Hat kernel ?
    I am asking because at my customer site there is a perception that Red Hat (or Oracle Linux with Red Hat kernel) is much more widely used in production to run Oracle 10g/11g database and therefore it will provide better stability even if the performance may be somewhat reduced compared to Oracle UEK option.
    So I need some sort of approximate percentage numbers of how well is UEK used in Linux Oracle community to run Oracle 10g/11g databases.
    Many thanks.
    Yuri B

    The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence. Well, in my opinion, a higher market share does not reflect the quality or reliability of a product. Take MS Windows for example. Unfortunately, the reason for success is often not due to knowledge and experience, but rather due to fear and sheep effect or herd behavior.
    Perhaps you can use other arguments or questions to help you to make a decision, eg.:
    Oracle has a better understanding of what Oracle products require than Red Hat.
    Oracle takes full responsibility for the OS and Database, no finger pointing.
    Oracle tries to provide a better product than the RHEL kernel.
    The Oracle UEK kernel contains Oracle driver software, not available for RHEL 6 or later.
    Oracle updates are free of charge, RHEL requires a subscription.
    Oracle as a company is about 20 times bigger than Red Hat.
    There can be reasons that require the use of the original RHEL kernel, for instance if the vendor of a specific driver for your hardware demands it. But otherwise...

  • Please help me, a problem when install oracle 10g on the solaris 10

    currently, I am installing the oracle 10g on the solaris 10, I am using DHCP and
    my computer has no hostname, the following is copied from the 10g document,
    When you run Oracle Universal Installer, an error may occur if name resolution is not set up. To avoid this error, before you begin installation, you must ensure that host names are resolved only through the /etc/hosts file.
    To ensure that host names are resolved only through the /etc/hosts file:
    1.
    Verify that the /etc/hosts file is used for name resolution. You can do this by checking the hosts file entry in the nsswitch.conf file as follows:
    # cat /etc/nsswitch.conf | grep hosts
    The output of this command should contain an entry for files.
    2.
    Verify that the host name has been set by using the hostname command as follows:
    # hostname
    The output of this command should be similar to the following:
    myhost.mycomputer.com
    currently, when I use hostname command, it is unknown, what should I do to add
    my hostname? thanks

    Since this is related to Solaris, you will most likely get a better/faster response on a Sun Solaris forum rather than here.

  • Our Java application is built with java 1.4 version and oracle 10g

    Our Java application is built with java 1.4 version and oracle 10g version database, is it possible to upgrade oracle database to 11g?

    is it possible to upgrade
    Yes. SE and the other editions have a migration/upgrade utility, not seeing any mention of that program in the XE license docs. To upgrade to 11gR2 from 10g, the 10g instance must be at patch 10.2.0.2 or higher.
    So if you're a GUI dba, might be out of luck. But the the XE install has the catalog upgrade scripts that need to be run, there is a MOS note explaining the manual upgrade steps.
    Or set up a brand new 11g database instance and datapump your user schema(s) from the 10g instance to the new 11g instance. The database doesn't care what java version you're using, it just does what its told with the data. DDL, DCL, DML ... its not much different. Quite a few new features in 11g.
    But if you're after JVMs that piece is not supported with XE.
