# oracle_adapter.rb -- ActiveRecord adapter for Oracle 8i, 9i, 10g
#
# Original author: Graham Jenkins
#
# Current maintainer: Michael Schoen <schoenm@earthlink.net>
#
#########################################################################
#
# Implementation notes:
# 1. Redefines (safely) a method in ActiveRecord to make it possible to
#    implement an autonumbering solution for Oracle.
# 2. The OCI8 driver is patched to properly handle values for LONG and
#    TIMESTAMP columns. The driver-author has indicated that a future
#    release of the driver will obviate this patch.
# 3. LOB support is implemented through an after_save callback.
# 4. Oracle does not offer native LIMIT and OFFSET options; this
#    functionality is mimiced through the use of nested selects.
#    See http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/ask/f?p=4950:8:::::F4950_P8_DISPLAYID:127412348064

      # This is an Oracle/OCI adapter for the ActiveRecord persistence
      # framework. It relies upon the OCI8 driver, which works with Oracle 8i
      # and above. Most recent development has been on Debian Linux against
      # a 10g database, ActiveRecord 1.12.1 and OCI8 0.1.13.
      # See: http://rubyforge.org/projects/ruby-oci8/
      #
      # Usage notes:
      # * Key generation assumes a "${table_name}_seq" sequence is available
      #   for all tables; the sequence name can be changed using
      #   ActiveRecord::Base.set_sequence_name. When using Migrations, these
      #   sequences are created automatically.
      # * Oracle uses DATE or TIMESTAMP datatypes for both dates and times.
      #   Consequently some hacks are employed to map data back to Date or Time
      #   in Ruby. If the column_name ends in _time it's created as a Ruby Time.
      #   Else if the hours/minutes/seconds are 0, I make it a Ruby Date. Else
      #   it's a Ruby Time. This is a bit nasty - but if you use Duck Typing
      #   you'll probably not care very much. In 9i and up it's tempting to
      #   map DATE to Date and TIMESTAMP to Time, but too many databases use
      #   DATE for both. Timezones and sub-second precision on timestamps are
      #   not supported.
      # * Default values that are functions (such as "SYSDATE") are not
      #   supported. This is a restriction of the way ActiveRecord supports
      #   default values.
      # * Support for Oracle8 is limited by Rails' use of ANSI join syntax, which
      #   is supported in Oracle9i and later. You will need to use #finder_sql for
      #   has_and_belongs_to_many associations to run against Oracle8.
