Regarding Relinking for Windows Users

Relinking is not required for Windows users (but it is required for UNIX users and is explained in the next section). Windows users access Oracle through a .DLL file detected at runtime.


Note: Oracle 32-bit users need to set up an alias for the database they are connecting to using Oracle's "SQLNet Easy Configuration" or a similar tool. For example, to set up an alias called "sun10" that has these settings:

Protocol: TCP/IP
Host Name: SUN10
Database Instance: ORCL

You should then test this alias using SQL*Plus with a login of "username@sun10". Once this configuration is verified, you can set the "ORA_LOGIN" variable in the COBOL configuration file to that value. Example "ORA-LOGIN username@sun10".
Information on Oracle's "SQLNet Easy Configuration" can be found in your Oracle documentation.
