This patch is to provide Oracle support for drupal.

There are 2 files here.
One are the new/appended .install files for core.
and the other is the database.oracle.inc database driver.

This has been tested against 8i/9i/10g.

If anyone would like to further test this, I can give you an Oracle DB Tablespace that you can use to test this patch against head.

Once this gets stabalized, then a MS-SQL port is on the way.


Note: Your db connect URL string should look something like:
$db_url = 'oracle://user:password@oracle.server.location/';
Of course, there can be discussion later about including some option connection paramters (e.g. TCP/IP, Pipes, User type, etc.).

Version: x.y.z » 4.7.x-dev

What version of drupal does this patch work for? Are there any bugs or does it work without issue?

I was forced to set a version so I set it to 4.7 figuring that was the version. But that's just a guess.

Whatever the version for the original patch, it will need to be implemented for HEAD before it can be committed.
