Hey guys,

We have a few processes at work that are a too slow for the business's liking and could benefit from a D rewrite. Biggest issue is that I haven't been able to find any support for a querying an Oracle database, which we need to try this out.

Anyone have something I might have missed? Thanks.

Did you consider ODBC yet? It might give you at least basic accesS.

odbc bindings I believe is still in etc.c package distributed with dmd.

I think you should be able to use OCI with the help of dpp [0],
just by including the headers ("oci.h") and linking with the library.

You can try to get one of the OCI examples [1], use D syntax and compile it with dpp.

Hope it helps,
Edi

I don't use Oracle, but usually google is your friend (just search for oracle dlang).

I brought the deimos driver up to date for dmd and phobos.
