The Oracle API that the Oracle provider uses (OCI) has not changed since at least Oracle 8. There used to be some minor compile problems with Oracle 10 (but not because of API incompatibility, but because of a changed file structure), that has has been fixed in the latest release. But the Oracle provider doesn't handle LOBs very well (even if you use an older version of Oracle). Not many open source applications does, Perl is the only one I know about. The problem with the Perl code is that it uses very old and deprecated functions (or perhaps only function names) which makes it bad for studying anyhow. _______________________________________________ gnome-db-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-db-list
