[stellation-res] Oracle stuff.
|
Hello,

> dba/programmer, don't hesitate.
Well, I could use a hand to get the Oracle backend up-to-date. The back-end
is not working at the moment, since Oracle threats the empty string as NULL.
The current DB abstraction code creates tables with a lot of columns on
non-NULL. One example is the Comments table. If you provide an empty comment
(empty string, being ""), Oracle inserts a NULL and the constraint is
violated. We will have to come up with an Oracle specific implementation
that takes care of this problem. Try out Stellation with an Oracle backend,
browse the code and put your comments on the list.
The code is quite old already because I haven't got a lot of time the past
months due to changing new jobs, relatives ending up in the hospital and a
four week holiday. I should have some time in the coming weeks, but you
never know...
