[cx-oracle-users] cx_Oracle and OCI callbacks

[Anthony T. <ant...@gm...>]

All,

A little over a decade ago I added partial support for callbacks on OCI
functions. The documentation states that it is highly experimental and
should be used with caution. In fact, it was an idea that never really bore
any fruit and I have never personally used it. Subclassing connections and
cursors allows you to hook anything you would like in cx_Oracle's code
already and attempting to use the code on a connection not created by
cx_Oracle is difficult at best and was of no practical use. As such, I am
planning on dropping this code after 5.3 is released. If anyone out there
has found a use for this code and would appreciate it remaining, please let
me know! Thanks.
