Oraperl is no longer the official Database-Interface of Perl.
the actual line of development are the perl-modules
DBI and DBD::Oracle.
DBI is the generic interface for all database system. DBI calls
DBD::Oracle for Oracle specific stuff. DBD::Oracle itself uses
OCI-calls for communication to the database.
DBI and DBD::Oracle work with Oracle8. Though I don't know about the
new Oracle8 features like LOBs.
The modules can be downloaded from a CPAN-server. The nearest server
can be found at www.perl.com .
Cheers, Bernhard
