It doesn't really buy you anything when used from Python - just adds one more layer to worry about :-) See the MS MDAC roadmap for more details: http://msdn.microsoft.com/data/mdac/default.aspx?pull=/library/en-us/dnmdac/html/data_mdacroadmap.asp It is interesting to see things like e.g. DAO which was en vogue a few years ago being listed as obsolete data access technology. >> BTW, would calling it mxOracle Zope DA help ?

Hi Cynthia, Cynthia Kiser wrote: When you do our own connection management, are you able to avoid DCOracle2 leaking connections? In our Zope 2.6.1/DCOracle2-1.3b server, we accumulate sessions where Oracle is waiting for a response from Zope, but Zope apparently thinks it closed that connection and opened a new one. If you google for my name, Oracle and Zope you'll find lots of information on the problem ;-) It's basically ZOracleDA's funny idea of connection pooling that causes the problem. Unless your ZSQL methods are hammered heavilly, you'll see plenty of unused oracle sessions. These aren't being leaked as you suggest, just not used very often. This results in "Oracle Not Connected" errors if your DBA sets a timeout on unused Oracle sessions... Manually closing and reopening the connection does not clean up the forgotten sessions, so I periodically (~monthly) restart the Zope server to clean up. Control Panel -> Database -> Main -> Flush Cache will have the same effect... me with the impression that its connection closing function did not work.

for functions, you can do something like select my_function_result() from dual (assuming your function returns a scalar of some kind.) for procedures, you can do the DCOracle2 Stored Procedure (might be called ZOracleDA Stored Procedure in your install...) OTOH I've found the procedure objects a bit flaky.
