Re:RE: SQLPlus was Oracle - "can you imagine" ;-)

Stephane,

    I remember using Pro*C with Lattice C and/or Vax C on Oracle 4. Was a whole lot more efficient than iag/iap. Damn, those were the days when a mouse was an optional item on your desktop that normally outlived the rest of the PC. That is IF you had a PC!!

I forgot about the name change fron HLI to OCI, but the core functionality, the ability to embed SQL in a 3GL, was there which was the gist of my claim.

   Wrong. OCI came with Oracle6 (1988). Was called 'HLI' then.

  Oracle 5 too.
