| DdlUtils has support for the <a href="ext:oracle">Oracle database</a> for versions <strong>8.1.7</strong>
|
| and above.<br/>
|
| Info about the datatypes and SQL elements supported in this version can be found in the
|
| <strong>Oracle SQL Reference</strong>. You can access this documentation from the
|
| <a href="ext:oracle/otn">Oracle Technology Network</a>. Registration to this area is free.
|
| </p>
|
| <p>
|
| DdlUtils provides different platforms for Oracle v8, v9, and v10. The v9 platform adds support for |
| the native <code>TIMESTAMP</code> type, and the v10 platform handles the recycle bin that was |
| introduced in version 10 of the Oracle database.<br/> |
| Note that DdlUtils currently does not automatically detect the database version, so it will always |
| choose the v8 version. If you want to make use of the additional features, then you have to |
| specify the platform identifier manually.
|
| </p> |
| <p> </p> |
| <p> |
| Platform identifiers: |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li><code>Oracle</code></li> |
| <li><code>Oracle9</code></li> |
| <li><code>Oracle10</code></li> |
| </ul> |
| <p> </p> |
| <p> |
| Recognized JDBC drivers: |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li><code>oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver</code></li> |
| <li><code>oracle.jdbc.dnlddriver.OracleDriver</code></li> |
| </ul> |
| <p> </p> |
| <p> |
| Recognized JDBC sub protocols: |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li><code>jdbc:oracle:thin</code></li> |
| <li><code>jdbc:oracle:oci8</code></li> |
| <li><code>jdbc:oracle:dnldthin</code></li> |
