Oracle DB driver/connectivity
Hi All,
We have developed an Erlang-Oracle driver to run over erlang runtime system. I was unable to find any articles by Oracle describing the DB connectivity protocol. To my knowledge at that point in time there is no way to connect to Oracle except through the standard JDBC/ODBC or through OCI and OCCI libraries. OCI and OCCI are C and C++ shared objects(DLLs) published by Oracle.
The DB driver built uses OCCI to connect to Oracle. Therefore the OCCI shared objects must be shipped with the driver. The OCCI shared objects are very large (~50mb) and platform dependent. (Although erlang binaries are portable)
