Vendor's Description (from Readme files, web site, etc.):

dbExpress driver for Oracle is lightweight database driver which provides fast and high performance access to Oracle database server. Using DBExpOda driver is the very same as one of standard dbExpress drivers supplied by Borland. It can work using Oracle Call Interface (OCI) or SQL*Net directly. DBExpOda supports Oracle 7, Oracle 8, Oracle 8i and Oracle 9i. Driver requires Oracle software installed on client side to access through OCI. In case of working through SQL*Net TCP/IP protocol required only.

Using DbxOda gives you the following advantages:

  • Direct SQL*Net protocol support. This feature allows driver to work in NET mode without Oracle client software;
  • Supports some additional options such as LongStrings, EnableBCD, FetchAll and others;
  • Linux compatible;
  • Extended monitoring capabilities with DB Monitor utility.
