Subject: compiling Sybperl for Sybase 11.9.2 on Sun
Date: Jan 4 1999 5:31AM

This is just a note to outline some problems I appear to have had compiling Sybperl
I am compiling Sybperl 2.10 using:
Solaris 2.6
Perl 5.5
Sybase 11.9.2

I am compiling with Dynamic Loading and the DO_TIE flag.  In fact I didn't need to edit
the CONFIG file at all though I tried a few things to eliminate the problems.
The only thing I had to change was my LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Initially I seem to have had a problem with one of the Sybase header files:
ctpublic.h which is included in CTlib.xs
ctpublic.h includes a header file called sqlda.h. There is no sqlda.h!


In file included from CTlib.xs:38:
/opt/sybase/include/ctpublic.h:20: sqlda.h: No such file or directory
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `CTlib.o'
Current working directory /tmp/sybperl-2.10/CTlib
*** Error code 1

---------------------------------------------------------------------

When I edited CTlib.xs and changed ctpublic.h to cspublic.h
things seemed to compile ok
but when I run the tests I get the following errors.
I have been able to install the compiled libraries despite this.
They seem to do what I require them to do so far...
I was just wondering how serious the change I made to CTlib.xs was
and how serious these test errors were:
