Francois Degrelle's blog about some Oracle technologies

It allows having the same behaviour on the Web that the one it has on the C/S version. The When-List-Changed trigger would fire only when the mouse is clicked or when the Enter key is pressed, but not when the end-user types a letter to filter the list.

Hello there,

I would be pleased to present the brilliant work of a nice French person, who has developped a library, capable of encapsulating the so complex OCI interface.
It is a powerful workaround for those C programmers that are not totally satisfied with the Pro*C stuff, and want to handle the powerful OCI without the headache that comes with.

Here is the summary of what his tool can do that I quote as he wrote himself:

Introduction

The OCILIB library :

• Encapsulates OCI (Oracle Call Interface which is powerful but complex)
• Hides OCI complexity
• Proposes instead a simple, readable and reusable API
• Offers up to 310 simple and straightforward APIs.

Introduction

Main features

• Data binding
• Integrated smart define and fetch mecanisms
• Full Unicode support on all platorms
• Multi row fetching
• Binding array Interface for fast and massive bulk operations
• Reusable Statements
• Connection Pooling
• Global Transactions
• Returning DML feature support
• ROWIDs support
• Named Types (Object types) support (User or Builtin)
• Cursors
• PL/SQL blocks
• PL/SQL Ref cursors and Nested tables
• LOB (BLOBs/ FILEs)
• Supports lobs > 4Go
• Long datatype (piecewise operations)
• Provides "All in one" Formatted functions (printf's like)
• Smallest possible memory usage
• Date/time management
• Timestamps and Intervals support
• Error handling
• Describe database schema objects
• Access columns by index or name
• Hash tables API
• Portable Threads and mutexes API
• Supports static / shared oracle linkage
• Support runtime loading (no OCI libs required at compile / time)
• Great performances (straight OCI encapsulation)
