Product Issues

The following sections contain information about issues related to Oracle Database 10g and associated products:

Oracle Database Installation, Configuration, and Upgrade Issues

Review the following sections for information about issues that affect Oracle Database installation, configuration, and upgrade:

Required Software

Oracle Database 10g for Mac OS X requires Mac OS X Server 10.3.6 and an additional software update available from Apple.


Note:

This software is supported only on Mac OS X Server.

To obtain Mac OS X Server 10.3.6 and the software update, send an email message to oracle_update_request@iservices.apple.com. You will receive an automatic response that contains links to the required patch and to the Mac OS X Server 10.3.6 installation software.


Note:

You do not need to include a message or title with the email.

To determine the version of the operating system, do one of the following:

  • Enter the following command:

    # sw_vers
    
    

    This command returns output similar to the following:

    ProductName: Mac OS X ServerProductVersion: 10.3.6BuildVersion: 7R28
    
    
  • Select About This Mac from the Apple menu.

Copy Required Font Files

Before installing the software, copy the font files from the fonts directory on the Oracle Database 10g CD-ROM to the /Library/Java/Home/lib/fonts directory on the system where you want to install the software. For RAC installations, copy the font files to the /Library/Java/Home/lib/fonts directory on each node of the cluster.

If you do not do this, runtime exceptions may occur when you access Oracle Enterprise Manager, iSQL*Plus, or iSearch through a browser that uses a multibyte character set, for example Japanese.

JDK Requirement

Before you install the software, you must verify that JDK 1.4.2_05 is installed on your system. To verify that this version of JDK is installed, enter the following command:

$ /Library/Java/Home/bin/java -version 

If it is not installed, use Software Update to install JDK version 1.4.2_05 or higher.

extjob Executable Required Directory Permissions

To enable the extjob executable to locate required libraries, the $ORACLE_HOME/lib directory and all of its parent directories must have execute permissions for group and other.

Enabling Automated Backups

While installing Oracle Database, the Specify Backup and Recovery Options screen may appear truncated if your system does not have the required fonts installed. If your system has only fixed-width fonts, you may not be able to fully specify the required information in the Backup Job Credentials area of the screen. To work around this issue, do not select Enable Automated Backups on this screen. After the installation is complete, use the Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Database Control to enable automated backups.

Oracle Software Owner Group

The group owner of the Oracle home directory must be the same as the primary group of the Oracle software owner, typically oinstall. If the group owner is different, an error similar to the following will occur during relinking:

/bin/chmod 6751 /u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1/bin/oracle
chmod: /u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1/bin/oracle: Operation not permitted

Stopping the Oracle Net Listener

On Mac OS X, make sure that Oracle Names Server (ONS) is running before entering the listener stop command. If ONS is not running, the listener stop command may cause the listener to hang. To start ONS, enter the following command:

$ onsctl start

This issue is tracked with Oracle bug 4052405.

Oracle Real Application Clusters Issues

Review the following sections for information about issues that affect Oracle Real Application Clusters:

Oracle CRS Silent Installation

If you perform a silent installation of Oracle CRS on multiple nodes, on a system that does not have other Oracle installations, the Installer does not set up the Oracle Inventory correctly. In this case, after the installation is complete, follow these steps:

  1. Run the orainstRoot.sh script on a local node.

  2. Copy the oraInventory directory from the local node to each of the remote nodes.

  3. Log in as the root user and run the following script on each remote node:

    oraInventory/orainstRoot.sh
    

Oracle CRS and RAC Installation Log File Messages

The installation log files for CRS and RAC installations might contain messages similar to the following:

/bin/tar: .../rootdeletenode: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
/bin/tar: .../rootdelete: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
/bin/tar: .../rootdeinstall: Cannot stat: No such file or directory

These messages do not indicate installation problems and can be ignored.

Oracle CRS Script Permissions

To enable Oracle CRS to start, after the system reboots ensure that the /System/Library/StartupItems/OracleCRS/OracleCRS script has execute permissions.

Remote Undo Tablespaces Do Not Autoexetend in RAC Seed Databases

If you create a RAC database with two or more instances and you choose to create General Purpose, Transaction Processing, or Data Warehouse databases, and if you use a shared cluster file system or Automatic Storage Management (ASM) for database files, then the Database Configuration Assistant (DBCA) creates undo tablespace datafiles with an initial size of 25 MB and AUTOEXTEND ON for the local instance but AUTOEXTEND OFF for remote instances.

You can set AUTOEXTEND ON for undo tablespace datafiles for remote instances after creating a RAC database as follows:

  1. Connect to the database instance on the node from which you ran DBCA:

    $ sqlplus "/ AS SYSDBA"
    
    
  2. Enter the following command to find the datafile names for UNDOTBS tablespaces for remote instances:

    SQL> SELECT file_name FROM SYS.DBA_DATA_FILES
         WHERE tablespace_name LIKE 'UNDOTBS%' AND AUTOEXTENSIBLE='NO';
    
    
  3. Set AUTOEXTEND ON for the datafiles that you found in the previous step:

    SQL> ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE datafile_name AUTOEXTEND ON;
    
    

Edit Startup Parameter File

Remove "Watchdog" from the Requires parameter in the following file:

/System/Library/StartupItems/OracleCRS/StartupParameters.plist

The Requires parameter should be defined as follows:

Requires = ("NetInfo", "Disks", "Network"); 

Installer Screen Not Translated Into Japanese

The Change Disk Discovery Path screen in the Installer is not translated into Japanense. This issue is tracked with Oracle bug 4108057.

Other Product Issues

Review the following sections for information about issues that affect other Oracle products:

Net Configuration Assistant Help

In the Net Configuration Assistant (NetCA) help, the link to the Select Oracle Context help topic is broken. The text for this topic is as follows:

Directory Usage Configuration, Select Oracle Context

Oracle administrative content has been found in more than one location in the directory. Oracle administrative content is stored in an Oracle Context, a subtree in the directory that stores Oracle entries.

From the list, select or enter the location you want to use as the default Oracle Context location from which this computer will access Oracle entries, such as connect identifiers.

Flashback Table or Flashback Analysis

If a user invokes the Flashback Table or Flashback Analysis operation, and that user has FLASHBACK ANY TABLE privileges but does not have specific flashback privileges on the objects that flashback is invoked on and does not have DBA privileges, then the following errors may occur:

ORA-02002: error while writing to audit trail 
ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [kzasps1], [4], [47], [],[],  

To fix this problem, as SYSDBA, grant the user FLASHBACK privilege on the objects that are referred to in the FLASHBACK TABLE statement and then invoke the flashback operation. For example:

SQL> GRANT FLASHBACK ON SCOTT.EMP_1 TO user1;

This issue is tracked through Oracle bug 3403666.

Oracle Internet Directory

This release includes the Oracle Internet Directory (OID) client tools, but it does not include OID server components. OID server components are included with Oracle Application Server 10g. If you require the OID server tools for Oracle Database components, then run them from an Oracle Application Server 10g installation.

The OID client tools include:

  • LDAP command-line tools

  • Oracle Internet Directory SDK

  • Oracle Directory Manager

The OID server components include the following servers and tools for starting and stopping them:

  • Directory server

  • Directory replication server

  • Directory integration server

Error When Viewing Period SQL Execution Plan in Korean

Viewing the execution plan of a Period SQL in Korean causes an internal server error. This problem is unique to Korean; it does not reproduce in Japanese or Chinese. The only workaround currently available is to run the product in a language other than Korean when you need to view this page.

Quick Tour Not Available in Oracle Change Management Pack

Quick Tour is not available in Oracle Change Management Pack. If you try to run it, then an error results.

Grid Features

Oracle Database New Features for Oracle Database 10g release 1 (10.1) lists two Grid features that are not available in the first release of Oracle Database 10g; Resonance and Transparent Session Migration. These features will be available in a future release.

Installing Enterprise Security Manager

To install Enterprise Security Manager (ESM), install Oracle Client and choose the Administrator installation type.

Full-Text Searching with Oracle Text

For full-text searching with Oracle Text, you must create XML tables manually.

If you will need to use Oracle Text indexes for text-based ora:contains searches over a collection of XML elements, then do not use XML schema annotation storeVarrayAsTable="true". This annotation causes element collections to be persisted as rows in an Index Organized Table (IOT). Oracle Text does not support IOTs.

To be able to use Oracle Text to search the contents of element collections, set parameter genTables="false" during schema registration. Then create the necessary tables manually, without using the clause ORGANIZATION INDEX OVERFLOW. The tables will then be heap-organized instead of index-organized (IOT), as shown in the following example:

CREATE TABLE PurchaseOrder of XMLTYPE
  XMLSCHEMA http://localhost:8080/home/SCOTT/poSource/xsd/purchaseOrder.xsd
  ELEMENT "PurchaseOrder"
  VARRAY "XMLDATA"."ACTIONS"."ACTION"
    STORE AS TABLE ACTION_TABLE ((PRIMARY KEY 
       (NESTED_TABLE_ID, ARRAY_INDEX)))
  VARRAY "XMLDATA"."LINEITEMS"."LINEITEM"
     STORE AS TABLE LINEITEM_TABLE ((PRIMARY KEY 
       (NESTED_TABLE_ID, ARRAY_INDEX)));

XDK Error Messages

XDK error messages are available at the XML Technology Center on the OTN Web site:

http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/xml/doc/production10g/Javaerrormsgs.html 

Creating a socketpair for javassl

If you use javassl in an Oracle application, the system might hang after you create a socketpair using the createSocket() method if:

  • host is localhost in the constructor createSocket (String host, int port, InetAddress localAddress, int localPort)

  • You use the constructor createSocket (InetAddress1, int, InetAddress2, int)

To work around this problem, use a fully qualified domain name, IP address, or 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost. This issue is tracked with Oracle bug 3939624.

Running Java Demonstrations

Before you run Java demonstrations, include the directory that contains the classes.jar file in the setting for the CLASSPATH environment variable (/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.4.2/Classes).

    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
		       Version 2, June 1991
 
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  USA
 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
 
			    Preamble
 
  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
your programs, too.
 
  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
 
  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.

   For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
rights.
 
  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
distribute and/or modify the software.
 
  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
authors' reputations.
 
  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
 
  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.
 
		   GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
 
  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
 
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
 
  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
along with the Program.
 
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

   2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
 
    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
 
    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
    parties under the terms of this License.
 
    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
 
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
 
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
collective works based on the Program.
 
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
the scope of this License.
 
  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
 
    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
 
    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
    customarily used for software interchange; or,
 
    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
    received the program in object code or executable form with such
    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
 
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
special exception, the source code distributed need not include
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
itself accompanies the executable.
 
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
 
  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
parties remain in full compliance.
 
  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
the Program or works based on it.
 
  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
this License.
 
  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
 
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
circumstances.
 
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
impose that choice.
 
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
 
  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
 
  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
address new problems or concerns.
 
Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
Foundation.
 
  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
 
	   NO WARRANTY
  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
 
  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
 
		     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
 
	    How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
 
  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
 
  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
 
    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
 
    This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by

    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
    GNU General Public License for more details.
 
    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
    along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
    Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  USA
 
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
 
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
when it starts in an interactive mode:
 
    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.

  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
 
  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
when it starts in an interactive mode:
 
    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.

The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
 
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:
 
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
`Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you may
consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General
Public License instead of this License.

The source code of libstdc++-v3 is distributed under version 2 of
the GNU General Public License, with the so-called "runtime exception," as
follows (or see any header or implementation file):
 
  "As a special exception, you may use this file as part of a free
  software library without restriction.  Specifically, if other files
  instantiate templates or use macros or inline functions from this file, or
  you compile this file and link it with other files to produce a executable,
  this file does not by itself cause the resulting executable to be
  covered by the GNU General Public License."

Documentation Accessibility

Our goal is to make Oracle products, services, and supporting documentation accessible, with good usability, to the disabled community. To that end, our documentation includes features that make information available to users of assistive technology. This documentation is available in HTML format, and contains markup to facilitate access by the disabled community. Standards will continue to evolve over time, and Oracle is actively engaged with other market-leading technology vendors to address technical obstacles so that our documentation can be accessible to all of our customers.

Accessibility of Code Examples in Documentation

JAWS, a Windows screen reader, may not always correctly read the code examples in this document. The conventions for writing code require that closing braces should appear on an otherwise empty line; however, JAWS may not always read a line of text that consists solely of a bracket or brace.
