Hi everyone ,

Any one using oracle database in windev 20 ?

I need to convert my Existing Windev Application with HFSQL C/S to ORACLE.

Is there any Change need in my existing codes while converting to ORACLE.

Is am able to check the application in oracle without purchasing ( can i use any trial version for testing) ??

Is it easy to convert the existing database to ORACLE ??

Is the connection between oracle and windev have any complication ??


I already converted my existing application to postgreSQL and MySQL that Works well.
But am not aware of ORACLE.


Please Mention Your valuable Comments

Hi SSP,

Sorry, I don't have an answer but if no-one else gives you the required advice here then try the Google+ WinDev-US community via the following link. There's a number of guys there who would most likely give you some great advice.

There you go:

Any one using oracle database in windev 20 ?
Ans. 'been used since 7.5 and it works well with ODBC and best with
Native driver.

I need to convert my Existing Windev Application with HFSQL C/S to ORACLE.
Ans. Possible but NOT EASY and best to acquire NATIVE DRIVER from
pcSoft if you want to use H... command in wx.

Is there any Change need in my existing codes while converting to ORACLE.
YES. A lot as from my experience, esp SP (Stored Procedures).
The conversion can be lengthy if your windev project was big.

Is am able to check the application in oracle without purchasing ( can i use any trial version for testing) ??
Ans. Give it a go as there's no penalty.

Is it easy to convert the existing database to ORACLE ??
Not quite even if you are experienced in both.

Is the connection between oracle and windev have any complication ??
Yes if you're a beginner.

I already converted my existing application to postgreSQL and MySQL that Works well.
But am not aware of ORACLE.

It's a BIG JUNGLE ie spending 10 times effort to get a little result and mostly
unexpected results do happen quite often and tuning faster speed of Oracle is
a mystery.

Cheers

King

With the native access is easy to start moving from one db engine to another.
If you already converted from HF/CS to postgreSQL and MySQL you know that in some situations you have to change your code and maybe the analisys.

If you are talking about a trial version of ORACLE check this page http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/database-technologies/express-edition/overview/index.html
unfortunately there is no trial version of native access
