RE: [U2] connection within UniVerse and Oracle
We came up with a novel solution to pass data back and forth between UV (10.1.8 on HP-UX) and Oracle (10.1.0.3 on IA HP-UX). We wrote a GCI wrapper for the Oracle OCI client that allowed us to call a set of stored procedures we wrote on Oracle from Databasic. This allows us to connect, enqueue, dequeue and commit using Oracle Advanced Queues. They work very well. We never really had much luck with ODBC on Unix for UV.

Re[2]: [U2] connection within UniVerse and Oracle
I think i would only use vb.net IF there was something specific that the uv odbc connection does not provide. I have found that for most applications the ODBC connection is not too slow and for most MV guys it is much easier and faster to learn the vb.net. And the price is right ..

BCI is supposed to work for this, but it really depends on the precise combination of operating system and ODBC data source. We were never able to talk to Sybase from UniData running on HP-UX, but hopefully you'll have better luck. If there is a driver and driver manager available for your combination, then you should be in business. -- Wendy ... who hopes we put the list config back the way it was... --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] connection within UniVerse and Oracle
We use OpenLink ODBC drivers to get Universe 10.1.14 to talk to MS SQL Server 2000 We use the standard Basic SQL Client Interfaces and have no problems Initial setup is a bit a of pig though Bob -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Wendy Smoak Sent: 28 February 2006 14:40 To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2] connection within UniVerse and Oracle On 2/27/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am trying to establish a connection between UniVerse 10.1 ( aix unix ) and Oracle (Window 2003), has anyone done this before?
