Hi, Has anybody user Lazarus, SqlDB and Oracle? Is there any major issues, or is it smooth sailing. I want to try out the free Oracle Database 10g Express Edition under Linux. http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/xe/index.html

Based on the amount of things you want to try and do, I estimate that there must be at least 11 clones of you in South Africa.

Or else you live in a time-warped part of the time/space continuum.

Michael.

Transactions are not supported. Further it should work, it's rather straight-forward.

And if you find something strange, just let me know.

sqlDB for Oracle doesn't yet support for Oracle's storedproc that returning a cursor. I had reported this a few months back, both in this list and the bug tracker. No fixes or working solution is done yet. CMIIW.

hehehe... And my body is feeling the strain!!! 2 weeks before I have a well deserved 3 week holiday which includes a 8 day motorcycle tour with my very pregnant wife. :-) I can't wait!

Anyway, I don't want to use Oracle in production, I simply want to add it to the FPC+tiOPF persistence layer tests. At the moment I only test Firebird persistence layers like SqlDB_IB and FBLib. Seeing the FPC+tiOPF supports other database backends as well, I just feel it fair to test those as well. MySQL and Oracle are the first two that came to mind. So as you can see, it's not a high priority at all, but would be a nice to have, to make sure all FPC+tiOPF persistence layers work as expected.

Luckily I don't use StoredProcs and the tiOPF test suite doesn't either. :-)

I wish I could go with you. My motorcycle is built for such trips :-)

I just kitted my bike out with leather saddlebags and a new screen to make the long haul a bit more comfortable. What motorcycle do you have? I've got a Yamaha Dragstar Classic (the fat one). I'm eagerly looking at the BMW 1200RT, but my wife is not convinced. :-( She loves cruisers too much. :-)

And to make this thread on-topic again. Lazarus rocks! ;-)

PS:
So much for the "light" edition or Oracle. It's over 200MB to download! The latest Firebird Server 2.1 came in at 5MB. :-)
