This is a maintenance release. Few new features and many fixed issues.
More than 50 % of issues are reported by Raimonds Simanovskis. Many thanks.
The Windows binary gem was compiled by mingw. It works with both Legacy
One-Click installer and RubyInstaller.
* New Features
- OCI8.error_message(message_no) -> string
Gets the Oracle error message specified by message id.
Its language depends on NLS_LANGUAGE.
Note: This method is unavailable if the Oracle client
version is 8.0.
# When NLS_LANG is AMERICAN_AMERICA.AL32UTF8
OCI8.error_message(1)
# => "ORA-00001: unique constraint (%s.%s) violated"
# When NLS_LANG is FRENCH_FRANCE.AL32UTF8
OCI8.error_message(1)
# => "ORA-00001: violation de contrainte unique (%s.%s)"
- OraNumber#dump -> string
Returns OraNumber's internal representation whose format
is same with the return value of Oracle SQL function DUMP().
OraNumber.new(100).dump #=> "Typ=2 Len=2: 194,2"
OraNumber.new(123).dump #=> "Typ=2 Len=3: 194,2,24"
OraNumber.new(0.1).dump #=> "Typ=2 Len=2: 192,11"
