Are there Oracle bindings for HDBC anywhere? The HDBC project page talks about Oracle backends but there isn't an Oracle-specific driver listed (I assume one can reach an Oracle backend through the ODBC interface?).
Yes, I was a bit confused by that, as well.
I started writing Oracle bindings for HDBC based on the Takusen code. It was done mostly for playing than for anything else and certainly isn't production ready, but it is available in a darcs repo at http://thiagoarrais.com/repos/hdbc-oracle in case anyone is interested. This code isn't ready for prime time yet and I'm looking for some that *is*. Is there such a thing already?
Yes, HSQL supports Oracle natively, through OCI. hsql-oracle isn't on hackage, only in the repository. I don't know how Takusen's oci code looks, but I would suspect that porting HSQL Oracle code to HDBC could be simpler, because HDBC and HSQL are quite similar in their interfaces, unlike Takusen. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
