[vwnc] Oracle on MacOSX-Intel

Roland Wagener wrote

Hi Everybody

as Oracle unveiled a long awayted software called 'InstantClient for
MacOSX-Intel' last week, a solution for VisualWorks seemed very near to
finaly use Store on our Oracle server directly from the Mac. For those
who dare try the fresh and unknown, look at package
        GHOracleMacOSXIntelEXDI  version 0.3

and _please_ read the package AND the class comment!

We only have two people here running on Intel-Macs, so testing was
limited to those two machines. Setup problems seem likely, because you
probably need an old or existing Oracle 8 or 9 setup for PPC-MacOSX.
Anyway, it can be done, and it seems pretty fast!

For Cincom: If you like the solution, you are free to use it.

Good Luck

Roland Wagener

Hi Roland,

I got this to work with a non threaded connection. However, I am trying
to use Glorp, which seems to want a threaded connection. Have you
had any success with that?

Thanks!

Sorry Michael, but I haven't looked into the ThreadedOracleConnect
version yet. But .. I just gave it a try, see package version
        GHOracleMacOSXIntelEXDI (0.4,heeg)+

in public repository.
However, the package needs OracleThapiEXDI as a prerequisite, please
load it before attempting to upgrade GHOracleMacOSXIntelEXDI to the new
version. And .. I just tested that the login works, I didn't run any
extensive tests here!

But please tell me if it works ;-)
