using DBI
2 messages · Bond, Stephen, chao gai
The way MySQL works, I use RMySQL to contact, which in turn uses DBI. There is a library ROracle which, from the manual, works the same. Hence I would start by looking at Roracle for the connection and proceed from there. Kees

can anybody provide a reference to a document on using DBI and what is
needed to make it work?
I try: drv=dbDriver("Oracle")
and it complains about not finding a function.
The DBI.pdf does not require anything else installed, but looking at the
archive I discovered there is more stuff to be installed.
This is on Solaris 5.10 with a full Oracle install, so all Oracle libs
are available and sqlplus works.
I am trying to connect remotely to another Oracle instance.
Thank you very much
