cx_Oracle 4.3.2

cx_Oracle is a Python extension module that allows access to Oracle, and conforms to the Python database API specifications. cx_Oracle module is currently built against Oracle 8.1.7, Oracle 9.2, and Oracle 10.2.
This API has been defined to encourage similarity between the Python modules that are used to access databases. By doing this, we hope to achieve a consistency leading to more easily understood modules, code that is generally more portable across databases, and a broader reach of database connectivity from Python.
The interface specification consists of several sections:
- Module Interface
- Connection Objects
- Cursor Objects
- DBI Helper Objects
- Type Objects and Constructors
- Implementation Hints
- Major Changes from 1.0 to 2.0
Enhancements:
- This release adds methods to LOB objects in order to improve performance of reading/writing LOB values.
- It also fixes support for native doubles and floats in Oracle 10g.
- Support was added for autocommit mode and reading/writing the size of the statement cache.
- A hook for returning objects other than tuples from cursors was also added.
