You have a point Maciej - but I got used to DCOracle2 and so far it has performed quite well. I link it with Oracle lib32 libraries, but use it with ora lib 64-bit libraries in the path. So far, there has been no issues I am aware of. The only thing that came up recently is how to use it with a stored procedure returning a ref cursor. This has been resolved, with a new issue on how to handle Ora TimeStamp data type which is crashing DCOracle2 with a segmentation fault on Sun Solaris (DCOracle2 exits fine with an actual error message on Windows XP. By the way I am using now DCOracle2 with Oracle 10 using the archive you sent me. So far, I have not run into any problems. However, I need to make a summary of what needs to be done to keep the scripts in one set for various platforms (Windows and Sun etc...) using C macros (DEFs), instead of allowing them to diverge.

So do you really have to use DCOracle2? I see that your code is plain python. You're not using Zope database adapter here(?) so maybe it is better to use something that is in active developement like cx_Oracle or SQLRelay? You'll avoid some problems, eg. DCOracle2 is not 64 bit compatible. -- Maciej Wisniowski _______________________________________________ Zope-DB mailing list Zope-DB@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-db
