*add constant's alias, coz others do have aliases
*change protos (oops =))
*add notices to collection functions
*change coll_element_get & coll_assign to inform user, that this type of element is not supported yet.
change almost all func names to match naming conventions
keep ocifetchinto & *buffering for awhile - they will be rewritten soon
old names are kept as aliases
rename constant and add library check to config.m4
add info lines to see if Collection & Temp Lob support enabled or not
add OCI_THREADED to use thread safe OCI mode with ZTS (should fix bug #26558)
@- added ZTS connection pooling support to the oci extension
@ connections will now be pooled per process and not
@ per thread anymore. the number of persistent and active
@ connections is now also shown in the phpinfo() output (harald)
ocitelllob(); [ OCI_Lob->tell(); ] - ftell(); analogue for Lobs
ociwritelob(); [ OCI_Lob->write(); ] - fwrite(); analogue for Lobs
ocitruncatelob(); [ OCI_Lob->truncate(); ] - ftruncate(); analogue for Lobs
ocieraselob(); [ OCI_Lob->erase(); ] - erases specified part of a Lob (for BLOBs it means zero-filling, for CLOBs - space-filling)
ociflushlob(); [ OCI_Lob->flush(); ] - flushes Lob buffer (if buffering was enabled before)
ocisetbufferinglob(); [ OCI_Lob->setBuffering(); ] - turns on/off buffering for the current Lob
ocigetbufferinglob(); [ OCI_Lob->getBuffering(); ] - gets buffering' current state
ocirewindlob(); [ OCI_Lob->rewind(); ] - rewind(); analogue for Lobs
ocireadlob(); [ OCI_Lob->read(); ] - fread(); analogue for Lobs
ocieoflob(); [ OCI_Lob->eof(); ] - feof(); analogue for Lobs
ociseeklob(); [ OCI_Lob->seek(); ] - fseek(); analogue for Lobs
ocilobgetlength(); [ OCI_Lob->getLength(); ] - filesize(); analogue for Lobs
ociappendlob(); - appends data from a Lob to another Lob
ocicopylob(); - copies data from a Lob to another Lob
ociisequallob(); - compares 2 Lobs and checks if they are equal
TODO cleanup
and other minor fixes
Nuke a sprintf (slooow)
And embed the charset as part of the hashed details (persistent conn key),
because the function otherwise happily returns incompatible connections.
(e.g. US7ASCII vs. UTF8; the client-side charset is not alterable once a
connection has been established.)
