Following up on last meetings discussion on supporting oracle: Oracle
JDBC drivers on Maven Central

Based on the I would like to remove the manual process of installing
ojdbc7 into your local repo, and replace with something like:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.oracle.ojdbc</groupId>
<artifactId>ojdbc8</artifactId>
<version>19.3.0.0</version>
</dependency>
Can I ask if anyone is using odjbc8 already?
I don't think this happened yet has it?
Oracle's first try at using Maven central was nearly succesful;
advancing insights made them decide to move the drivers to diffent
groupId's as described in the post om medium [1]
the TLDR:
- all versions now available (19.3.0.0, 18.3.0.0, 12.2.0.1 and some
11.2.0.4)
- new groupId for production jar's at com.oracle.database.jdbc
- net groupId for debug jars (postfixed with _g) at
com.oracle.database.jdbc.debug
- all have sources + javadoc jar's as required
so above snippet should be
<dependency>
<groupId>com.oracle.database.jdbc</groupId>
<artifactId>ojdbc8</artifactId>
<version>19.3.0.0</version>
</dependency>
for production use, or
<dependency>
<groupId>com.oracle.database.jdbc.debug</groupId>
<artifactId>ojdbc8_g</artifactId>
<version>19.3.0.0</version>
</dependency>
for debugging.
I can prepare a PR if you like.
Not sure where to a a note about the license "Oracle Free Use Terms and
Conditions (FUTC)"
(I think that would only concern geoserver as that would/could
distribute the driver jar with the extension. Some lawyer should decide
on that I guess.)
