Hi,

I know 9i isn't supported etc. etc.

We have an old application here which can't be upgraded quickly but it would be nice if it could connect to 11g or later. Among other things if Developer 9i could connect to current versions it would let our developers look for potential problems introduced by going to 11g or later on the database side.

Developer 9i apparently uses an early version of the 9i client which uses a connection trigger the newer databases don't like. Developer 9i was never updated to fix this issue apparently, probably the expectation was that people would move on to DS 10g.

(Reminds me of the old days when iAS 1.0.2 had two homes crammed together, one 6i, one 8i)

Has anyone managed to either:
a) replace the Developer 9i client with the 9.2 client or
b) force 11g or later to accept connections from Developer 9i or the Oracle 9.1 client.
