There was a free one from borland, I downloaded I think you can find it, if you can't I can send you if I found it.

I'm wanting to play around with PL/SQL Native Compilation. Windows 2000 and XP Professional, both 9iR2 and 10g on each machine. It looks like the only *supported* C compiler is MS Visual C++ 6.0 (I came across a few papers saying that the supported compilers would be the same as the supported compilers for Pro*C, and that's the only compiler listed on Metalink as supported for Pro*C in my environments). I also read, though, that some people do indeed use non-supported compilers. Those references, though, were to UNIX variants. So, have any of you used PL/SQL NCOMP in the Windows environment, and used a compiler other than the Visual C++ 6.0 one? I'd prefer a free one as this is simply experimenting on my own private machines ;-) Regards, Larry G.
