Subject: Ada, OCI, double with Encina
Organization: Federal Systems Company (IBM)
Lines: 13

Can someone help me with the following two questions:

1) Is there an Ada version of OCI or is it supported only in C?
Does the Pro*Ada precompiler produce Ada code or C code?

2) When we try to update (insert/update) a table column that is
defined as NUMBER(11,2) using a double (using Pro*C), we get
a 'mdiv zero' error when our application uses Encina.  Without
Encina, it works fine, and using a VARCHAR host variable works in either
case.  Does anyone know why (does Encina use a different math library)?
