There are a couple of questions floating around about this, but none have been really answered.
Basically - is there currently an implementation of ODP.NET for enlib (6.0) currently being used? Or will I have to go down the route of writing a mapping / custom DAO for ODP.NET?
The generic database can only get me so far, it falls flat with Oracle stored procedures (the dreaded 'Parameter discovery is not supported for connections using GenericDatabase. You must specify the parameters explicitly, or configure the connection to use a type deriving from Database that supports parameter discovery' error)
I am aware of the entlibcontrib project - but this seems to be on hold/dead as it has not had a new realease since 2011/entlib 5.0.
Any pointers, or advice about custom DAO development for entlib, would be appreciated.
Here's our official stand on this:
I haven't come across an implementation of ODP.NET for EntLib6. If you do end up updating the one available on EntLibContrib for v5.0, please post it to the contrib site for others to benefit from. Should be fairly straightforward, no major changes to DAAB in v6.
I wish I had a better answer for you, but at the end of the day it comes down to prioritization of stories for the release and this one wasn't high enough of the stackrank for my team to pick up.
