Are there any libraries available for connecting to an Oracle or DB2 database available for objective C. And is there any type of exception handling available within objective C so as to give an application or more gracefull exit rather than a core dump. It seems to me that objective C may be more prone to this behavior. Also what is the status of GNUStep and will GNUStep offer they same objects and methods that Apple has provided so that we don't have to code for two differing platforms?????

  Yes. Apple's EOF has connections for Oracle. For DB2 I know their ODBC adaptor works.
  
  And, Yes, there is exception handling. NS_DURING... is similar to Java's try {} block.
