Thank you for your excellent work on this library. I’ve used it for a  
dozen projects, and it has never caused me trouble.

and MacOS X) without problems. Works great.

Thanks.

And here. Also on Solaris and OSX, Oracle 10g. I even use it with  
the Instant Client _through an ssh tunnel_ so I can take my Powerbook  
and work in the cafe when I get sick of my office.

Has anyone managed to get the library to work with AIX, I’ve managed to  
get everything working on a windows platform but AIX is a different  
matter.

We’re using AIX 5.3. If anyone has any compiled binaries they can point  
me towards I’d be very grateful.

Thanks
