Last time I used OCI was w/ v5. It makes no sense to work in OCI, cuz writing embedded SQL makes so much more sense and is lots faster. just run it thru the pre-compiler & voilá! there's your OCI.
mySQL is fine, but there's so much missing from it that I haven't spent any more time on it, now that Larry has Oracle back on the Macintosh.
BTW, I heard these same comments about 'easier to program', etc. from my DOS buddies back when I started programming the Mac in the mid-80's.
