Re: ODCIConst.Success question (Oracle9 & Java1.3)

I think you'll have to define these constants yourself. Even sample Java code within Oracle's documentation has to define these constants. Take a look at:

http://otn.oracle.com/pls/db92/db92.to_URL?remark=drilldown&urlname=http:%2F%2Fdownload-west.oracle.com%2Fdocs%2Fcd%2FB10501_01%2Fappdev.920%2Fa96595%2Fdciappa1.htm%23631802

Note the following lines

  final static BigDecimal SUCCESS = new BigDecimal(0);   final static BigDecimal ERROR = new BigDecimal(1);

Cheers,
Dave
