Oracle Object Oriented Database Interface (O3DBI)
0.1
This is the programmers manual for the O3DBI (Oracle Object-Oriented Database Interface) library. This manual contains all information needed by programmers developing new applications or converting existing applications to run in the Oracle environment. It is also intended for O3DBI developers for maintenance the library itself.
O3DBI (Oracle Object-Oriented Database Interface) is a C++ class library using Oracle Call Interface (OCI) directly and allows to create lightweight and fast applications working with Oracle databases. O3DBI hides the complexity of the low-level OCI C-Interface from the user and provides an ease-of-use C++ Interface. O3DBI is written in ANSI C++ and uses STL (Standard Template Library) for being platform independent.
To keep the developers manual consistent with the source code, the O3DBI source code is equipped with comments which can be read and evaluated by the documentation system Doxygen, developed by Dimitri van Heesch. This developer manual is the result of a compilation with Doxygen, it is extracted directly from the sources.
Tests are important components of the quality assurance. The O3DBI library is predestined to be tested automatically, ideally in a post-build-step during compilation. For this task O3DBI is using CppUnit, written by Baptiste Lepilleur, for unit testing. Please refer Testing O3DBI library for detailed informationa about using CppUnit in O3DBI library.
