[Phpwiki-talk] Oci8 (Oracle) backend

[Philippe V. <Phi...@to...>]

Hi!

Since I have seen some requests in the forum and on the list regarding 
the Oracle backend, i have made some cleanup in my code, and here is the 
result...

The patch file in attachement is a patch against today's CVS (but should 
work against phpWiki 1.3.10 as well).

It contains:

    * doc/INSTALL.oci8: new file -- a bit of doc
    * lib/WikiDB/backend/PearDB.php: a couple of patches to make PearDB
      more 'portable' (was too much MySQL specific), plus some hooks to
      be able to support some Oracle specifics.
    * lib/WikiDB/backend/oci8.php: new file -- the backend itself
    * schemas/oci8.sql: new file -- table creation

As far as I have tested, the patch does not break MySQL backend, and 
should have no impact on the PostgreSQL one (not tested though).
For the Oracle side, everything should work except the full text search 
(would require Intermedia Text).

Do not hesitate to report issues.
