[TYPO3-dev] PostgreSQL native drive for TYPO3 status update... and question about : 102: These fields are not properly

[ries van Twisk]

Hey Moreno,

do you think we should write a native driver for oracle aswell??

I think the tool I wrote to migrate an MySQL database to PostgreSQL,
will also work on Oracle. However I don't have any oracle experience..
The only difference I see between Oracle and PostgreSQL is that
empty strings are handles as NULL values. But I think
they are tricking that in TYPO3 core as I have seen from a couple of  
queries.

I am not planning to do it yet... but after I finished this proof of  
concept...
