"Objects" demo fails

upscene · Post by **upscene** » Mon 30 May 2005 15:30

Hi,

When running the Objects demo, I get this error when clicking the "Open" button:

---------------------------
Data type is not supported.
---------------------------

I used the "Create" button and it created everything, but this doesn't work...

I'm trying to use objects etc within the DBMS_DEBUG package and I figured I'd try the ODAC demos first...

Are you using Net option - object data types are not supported with Net option, if not then pls. specify your ODAC version, Oracle Client/Server versions and IDE version.

Hello Alex,

Yes - I was using the "net" option.

Why isn't this supported? I seem to be running into that more often than not...

Could you upgrade the NET option to support everything the OCI connectivity layer does? Of what use is the NET option if it doesn't properly?

Not all Oracle features could be implemented in "Net" mode, for more information about Net option restrictions see "Working with ODAC Net" topic in ODAC help.

Right, reading through the limitations...

Are there plans to support the currently unsupported stuff?

For example, this: BreakExec procedure does not work - has been fixed in a recent update.

We are going to support whole OCI functionality with Net option but not in the nearest time.
