Failover support question

Post by waeberd » Thu 31 Jan 2008 10:30

Hi,

I'd love to add "failover support" to my application as described in the help file (handling failed connections gently, retrying to reconnect etc).

But in my examples the OnFailover event is never fired.

Questions:
* Does this work in NET mode?
* Does this work with every Oracle distribution, especially when there is only a single instance oracle server?

Any help is appreciated, this sounds very promising...

Thanks, Daniel

edit:
* oh yes, I'm using ODAC VCL version 5.70.1.33!

nevermind, found it!

1) Upgrade to ODAC6
2) Read the gread pdf manual, "15.18 Working in an unstable network"

Guess that should solve the problem!

Regards, Daniel
