Обсуждение: orafce

 Hi Paolo,

   we have recently migrated orafce to github
 (https://github.com/orafce/orafce) and are in the middle of the process
 for migrating the mailing list to Google Groups.

   You are better off asking here:
 https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/orafce-general

 Thanks,
 Gabriele

some basic oracle function can be implemented with simple sql
functions as wrappers PostgreSQL functions

CREATE VIEW public.dual AS SELECT 'X'::varchar AS dummy;
REVOKE ALL ON public.dual FROM PUBLIC;
GRANT SELECT, REFERENCES ON public.dual TO PUBLIC;
