+   NAME
+     cdemo81.c - Basic OCI V8 functionality
+
+   DESCRIPTION
+
+ *  An example program which adds new employee
+ *  records to the personnel data base.  Checking
+ *  is done to insure the integrity of the data base.
+ *  The employee numbers are automatically selected using
+ *  the current maximum employee number as the start.
+ *
+ *  The program queries the user for data as follows:
+ *
+ *  Enter employee name:
+ *  Enter employee job:
+ *  Enter employee salary:
+ *  Enter employee dept:
+ *
+ *  The program terminates if return key (CR) is entered
+ *  when the employee name is requested.
+ *
+ *  If the record is successfully inserted, the following
+ *  is printed:
+ *
+ *  "ename" added to department "dname" as employee # "empno"
+
+   Demonstrates creating a connection, a session and executing some SQL.
+   Also shows the usage of allocating memory for application use which has the
+   life time of the handle.

+--------------------------------OCIAttrGet------------------------------------
+
+OCIAttrGet()
+Name
+OCI Attribute Get
+Purpose
+This call is used to get a particular attribute of a handle. 
+Syntax
+sword OCIAttrGet ( const void    *trgthndlp,
+                 ub4            trghndltyp,
+                 void          *attributep,
+                 ub4            *sizep,
+                 ub4            attrtype,
+                 OCIError       *errhp );
+Comments
+This call is used to get a particular attribute of a handle.
+See Appendix B,  "Handle Attributes",  for a list of handle types and their 
+readable attributes.
+Parameters
+trgthndlp (IN) - is the pointer to a handle type. 
+trghndltyp (IN) - is the handle type. 
+attributep (OUT) - is a pointer to the storage for an attribute value. The 
+attribute value is filled in. 
+sizep (OUT) - is the size of the attribute value. 
+This can be passed in as NULL for most parameters as the size is well known. 
+For text* parameters, a pointer to a ub4 must be passed in to get the length 
+of the string. 
+attrtype (IN) - is the type of attribute.
+errhp (IN/OUT) - an error handle which can be passed to OCIErrorGet() for 
+diagnostic information in the event of an error.

+OCIAttrSet()
+
+--------------------------------OCIAttrSet------------------------------------
+
+
+OCIAttrSet()
+Name
+OCI Attribute Set
+Purpose
+This call is used to set a particular attribute of a handle or a descriptor. 
+Syntax
+sword OCIAttrSet ( void       *trgthndlp,
+                 ub4         trghndltyp,
+                 void       *attributep,
+                 ub4         size,
+                 ub4         attrtype,
+                 OCIError    *errhp );
+Comments
+This call is used to set a particular attribute of a handle or a descriptor. 
+See Appendix B for a list of handle types and their writeable attributes.
+Parameters
+trghndlp (IN/OUT) - the pointer to a handle type whose attribute gets 
+modified. 
+trghndltyp (IN/OUT) - is the handle type. 
+attributep (IN) - a pointer to an attribute value. 
+The attribute value is copied into the target handle. If the attribute value 
+is a pointer, then only the pointer is copied, not the contents of the pointer.
+size (IN) - is the size of an attribute value. This can be passed in as 0 for 
+most attributes as the size is already known by the OCI library. For text*

+Description
+This call is used to perform a basic bind operation. The bind creates an 
+association between the address of a program variable and a placeholder in a 
+SQL statement or PL/SQL block. The bind call also specifies the type of data 
+which is being bound, and may also indicate the method by which data will be 
+provided at runtime.
+This function also implicitly allocates the bind handle indicated by the bindp 
+parameter.
+Data in an OCI application can be bound to placeholders statically or 
+dynamically. Binding is static when all the IN bind data and the OUT bind 
+buffers are well-defined just before the execute. Binding is dynamic when the 
+IN bind data and the OUT bind buffers are provided by the application on 
+demand at execute time to the client library. Dynamic binding is indicated by 
+setting the mode parameter of this call to OCI_DATA_AT_EXEC.
+Related Functions: For more information about dynamic binding, see 
+the section "Runtime Data Allocation and Piecewise Operations" on 
+page 5-16.
+Both OCIBindByName() and OCIBindByPos() take as a parameter a bind handle, 
+which is implicitly allocated by the bind call A separate bind handle is 
+allocated for each placeholder the application is binding.
+Additional bind calls may be required to specify particular attributes 
+necessary when binding certain data types or handling input data in certain 
+ways:
+If arrays of structures are being utilized, OCIBindArrayOfStruct() must 
+be called to set up the necessary skip parameters.
+If data is being provided dynamically at runtime, and the application 
+will be using user-defined callback functions, OCIBindDynamic() must 
+be called to register the callbacks.
+If a named data type is being bound, OCIBindObject() must be called to 
+specify additional necessary information.
+Parameters
+stmth (IN/OUT) - the statement handle to the SQL or PL/SQL statement 
+being processed.
+bindp (IN/OUT) - a pointer to a pointer to a bind handle which is implicitly 
+allocated by this call.  The bind handle  maintains all the bind information 
+for this particular input value. The handle is feed implicitly when the 
+statement handle is deallocated.
+errhp (IN/OUT) - an error handle which can be passed to OCIErrorGet() for 
+diagnostic information in the event of an error. 
+placeholder (IN) - the placeholder attributes are specified by name if 
+ocibindn() is being called.
+placeh_len (IN) - the length of the placeholder name specified in placeholder.
+valuep (IN/OUT) - a pointer to a data value or an array of data values of the 
+type specified in the dty parameter. An array of data values can be specified 
+for mapping into a PL/SQL table or for providing data for SQL multiple-row 
+operations. When an array of bind values is provided, this is called an array 
+bind in OCI terms. Additional attributes of the array bind (not bind to a 
+column of ARRAY type) are set up in OCIBindArrayOfStruct() call. 
+For a REF, named data type  bind, the valuep parameter is used only for IN 
+bind data. The pointers to OUT buffers are set in the pgvpp parameter 
+initialized by OCIBindObject(). For named data type and REF binds, the bind 
+values are unpickled into the Object Cache. The OCI object navigational calls 
+can then be used to navigate the objects and the refs in the Object Cache.
+If the OCI_DATA_AT_EXEC mode is specified in the mode parameter, valuep 
+is ignored for all data types. OCIBindArrayOfStruct() cannot be used and 
+OCIBindDynamic() must be invoked to provide callback functions if desired. 
+value_sz (IN) - the size of a data value. In the case of an array bind, this is
+the maximum size of any element possible with the actual sizes being specified 
+in the alenp parameter. 
+If the OCI_DATA_AT_EXEC mode is specified, valuesz defines the maximum 
+size of the data that can be ever provided at runtime for data types other than
+named data types or REFs. 
+dty (IN) - the data type of the value(s) being bound. Named data types 
+(SQLT_NTY) and REFs (SQLT_REF) are valid only if the application has been 
+initialized in object mode. For named data types, or REFs, additional calls 
+must be made with the bind handle to set up the datatype-specific attributes.
+indp (IN/OUT) - pointer to an indicator variable or array. For scalar data 
+types, this is a pointer to sb2 or an array of sb2s. For named data types, 
+this pointer is ignored and the actual pointer to the indicator structure or 
+an array of indicator structures is initialized by OCIBindObject(). 
+Ignored for dynamic binds.
+See the section "Indicator Variables" on page 2-43 for more information about 
+indicator variables.
+alenp (IN/OUT) - pointer to array of actual lengths of array elements. Each 
+element in alenp is the length of the data in the corresponding element in the 
+bind value array before and after the execute. This parameter is ignored for 
+dynamic binds.
+rcodep (OUT) - pointer to array of column level return codes. This parameter 
+is ignored for dynamic binds.
+maxarr_len (IN) - the maximum possible number of elements of type dty in a 
+PL/SQL binds. This parameter is not required for non-PL/SQL binds. If 
+maxarr_len is non-zero, then either OCIBindDynamic() or 
+OCIBindArrayOfStruct() can be invoked to set up additional bind attributes. 
+curelep(IN/OUT) - a pointer to the actual number of elements. This parameter 
+is only required for PL/SQL binds.
+mode (IN) - the valid modes for this parameter are:
+OCI_DEFAULT. This is default mode.
+OCI_DATA_AT_EXEC. When this mode is selected, the value_sz 
+parameter defines the maximum size of the data that can be ever 
+provided at runtime. The application must be ready to provide the OCI 
+library runtime IN data buffers at any time and any number of times. 
+Runtime data is provided in one of the two ways:
+callbacks using a user-defined function which must be registered 
+with a subsequent call to OCIBindDynamic(). 
+a polling mechanism using calls supplied by the OCI. This mode 
+is assumed if no callbacks are defined.
+For more information about using the OCI_DATA_AT_EXEC mode, see 
+the section "Runtime Data Allocation and Piecewise Operations" on 
+page 5-16.
+When the allocated buffers are not required any more, they should be 
+freed by the client.

+Comments
+This function sets up additional attributes which binding a named data type 
+or a REF. An error will be returned if this function is called when the OCI 
+environment has been initialized in non-object mode. 
+This call takes as a paramter a type descriptor object (TDO) of datatype 
+OCIType for the named data type being defined.  The TDO can be retrieved 
+with a call to OCITypeByName().
+If the OCI_DATA_AT_EXEC mode was specified in ocibindn() or ocibindp(), the 
+pointers to the IN buffers are obtained either using the callback icbfp 
+registered in the OCIBindDynamic() call or by the OCIStmtSetPieceInfo() call. 
+The buffers are dynamically allocated for the OUT data and the pointers to 
+these buffers are returned either by calling ocbfp() registered by the 
+OCIBindDynamic() or by setting the pointer to the buffer in the buffer passed 
+in by OCIStmtSetPieceInfo() called when OCIStmtExecute() returned 
+OCI_NEED_DATA. The memory of these client library- allocated buffers must be 
+freed when not in use anymore by using the OCIObjectFreee() call.
+Parameters
+bindp ( IN/OUT) - the bind handle returned by the call to OCIBindByName() 
+or OCIBindByPos(). 
+errhp ( IN/OUT) - an error handle which can be passed to OCIErrorGet() for 
+diagnostic information in the event of an error.
+type ( IN) - points to the TDO which describes the type of the program 
+variable being bound. Retrieved by calling OCITypeByName().
+pgvpp ( IN/OUT) - points to a pointer to the program variable buffer. For an 
+array, pgvpp points to an array of pointers. When the bind variable is also an 
+OUT variable, the OUT Named Data Type value or REF is allocated 
+(unpickled) in the Object Cache, and a pointer to the value or REF is returned,
+At the end of execute, when all OUT values have been received, pgvpp points 
+to an array of pointer(s) to these newly allocated named data types in the 
+object cache. 
+pgvpp is ignored if the OCI_DATA_AT_EXEC mode is set. Then the Named 
+Data Type buffers are requested at runtime. For static array binds, skip 
+factors may be specified using the OCIBindArrayOfStruct() call. The skip 
+factors are used to compute the address of the next pointer to the value, the 
+indicator structure and their sizes.
+pvszsp ( IN/OUT) - points to the size of the program variable. The size of the 
+named data type is not required on input. For an array, pvszsp is an array of 
+ub4s. On return, for OUT bind variables, this points to size(s) of the Named 
+Data Types and REFs received. pvszsp is ignored if the OCI_DATA_AT_EXEC 
+mode is set. Then the size of the buffer is taken at runtime.
+indpp ( IN/OUT) - points to a pointer to the program variable buffer 
+containing the parallel indicator structure. For an array, points to an array 
+of pointers. When the bind variable is also an OUT bind variable, memory is 
+allocated in the object cache, to store the unpickled OUT indicator values. At 
+the end of the execute when all OUT values have been received, indpp points 
+to the pointer(s) to these newly allocated indicator structure(s). 
+indpp is ignored if the OCI_DATA_AT_EXEC mode is set. Then the indicator 
+is requested at runtime.
+indszp ( IN/OUT) - points to the size of the IN indicator structure program 
+variable. For an array, it is an array of sb2s. On return for OUT bind 
+variables, this points to size(s) of the received OUT indicator structures.
+indszp is ignored if the OCI_DATA_AT_EXEC mode is set. Then the indicator

+Comments
+This call defines an output buffer which will receive data retreived from 
+Oracle. The define is a local step which is necessary when a SELECT statement 
+returns data to your OCI application.
+This call also implicitly allocates the define handle for the select-list item.
+Defining attributes of a column for a fetch is done in one or more calls. The 
+first call is to OCIDefineByPos(), which defines the minimal attributes 
+required to specify the fetch. 
+This call takes as a parameter a define handle, which must have been 
+previously allocated with a call to OCIHandleAlloc().
+Following the call to OCIDefineByPos() additional define calls may be 
+necessary for certain data types or fetch modes:
+A call to OCIDefineArrayOfStruct() is necessary to set up skip parameters 
+for an array fetch of multiple columns.
+A call to OCIDefineObject() is necessary to set up the appropriate 
+attributes of a named data type fetch. In this case the data buffer pointer 
+in ocidefn() is ignored.
+Both OCIDefineArrayOfStruct() and OCIDefineObject() must be called 
+after ocidefn() in order to fetch multiple rows with a column of named 
+data types.
+For a LOB define, the buffer pointer must be a lob locator of type 
+OCILobLocator , allocated by the OCIDescAlloc() call. LOB locators, and not 
+LOB values, are always returned for a LOB column. LOB values can then be 
+fetched using OCI LOB calls on the fetched locator.
+For NCHAR (fixed and varying length), the buffer pointer must point to an 
+array of bytes sufficient for holding the required NCHAR characters. 
+Nested table columns are defined and fetched like any other named data type. 
+If the mode parameter is this call is set to OCI_DYNAMIC_FETCH, the client 
+application can fetch data dynamically at runtime.
+Runtime data can be provided in one of two ways:
+callbacks using a user-defined function which must be registered with a 
+subsequent call to OCIDefineDynamic(). When the client library needs a 
+buffer to return the fetched data, the callback will be invoked and the 
+runtime buffers provided will return a piece or the whole data. 
+a polling mechanism using calls supplied by the OCI. This mode is 
+assumed if no callbacks are defined. In this case, the fetch call returns the 
+OCI_NEED_DATA error code, and a piecewise polling method is used 
+to provide the data.
+Related Functions: For more information about using the 
+OCI_DYNAMIC_FETCH mode, see the section "Runtime Data 
+Allocation and Piecewise Operations" on page 5-16 of Volume 1..

+on page 2-30.
+Parameters
+stmtp (IN) - a handle to the requested SQL query operation.
+defnp (IN/OUT) - a pointer to a pointer to a define handle which is implicitly 
+allocated by this call.  This handle is used to  store the define information 
+for this column.
+errhp (IN) - an error handle which can be passed to OCIErrorGet() for 
+diagnostic information in the event of an error.
+position (IN) - the position of this value in the select list. Positions are 
+1-based and are numbered from left to right. For example, in the SELECT 
+statement
+SELECT empno, ssn, mgrno FROM employees;
+empno is at position 1, ssn is at position 2, and mgrno is at position 3.
+valuep (IN/OUT) - a pointer to a buffer or an array of buffers of the type 
+specified in the dty parameter. A number of buffers can be specified when 
+results for more than one row are desired in a single fetch call.
+value_sz (IN) - the size of each valuep buffer in bytes. If the data is stored 
+internally in VARCHAR2 format, the number of characters desired, if different 
+from the buffer size in bytes, may be additionally specified by the using 
+OCIAttrSet(). 
+In an NLS conversion environment, a truncation error will be generated if the 
+number of bytes specified is insufficient to handle the number of characters 
+desired.
+dty (IN) - the data type. Named data type (SQLT_NTY) and REF (SQLT_REF) 
+are valid only if the environment has been intialized with in object mode. 
+indp - pointer to an indicator variable or array. For scalar data types, 
+pointer to sb2 or an array of sb2s. Ignored for named data types. For named 
+data types, a pointer to a named data type indicator structure or an array of 
+named data type indicator structures is associated by a subsequent 
+OCIDefineObject() call. 
+See the section "Indicator Variables" on page 2-43 for more information about 
+indicator variables.
+rlenp (IN/OUT) - pointer to array of length of data fetched. Each element in 
+rlenp is the length of the data in the corresponding element in the row after 
+the fetch. 
+rcodep (OUT) - pointer to array of column-level return codes
+mode (IN) - the valid modes are:
+OCI_DEFAULT. This is the default mode.
+OCI_DYNAMIC_FETCH. For applications requiring dynamically 
+allocated data at the time of fetch, this mode must be used. The user may 
+additionally call OCIDefineDynamic() to set up a callback function that 
+will be invoked to receive the dynamically allocated buffers and to set 
+up the memory allocate/free callbacks and the context for the callbacks. 
+valuep and value_sz are ignored in this mode.

+Comments
+This is a generic describe call that describes existing schema objects: tables,

+result of this call, the describe handle is populated with the object-specific 
+attributes which can be obtained through an OCIAttrGet() call.
+An OCIParamGet() on the describe handle returns a parameter descriptor for a 
+specified position. Parameter positions begin with 1. Calling OCIAttrGet() on 
+the parameter descriptor returns the specific attributes of a stored procedure 
+or function parameter or a table column descriptor as the case may be. 
+These subsequent calls do not need an extra round trip to the server because 
+the entire schema object description cached on the client side by 
+OCIDescribeAny(). Calling OCIAttrGet() on the describe handle can also return 
+the total number of positions.

+
+Comments
+Assign source locator to destination locator.  After the assignment, both 
+locators refer to the same LOB data.  For internal LOBs, the source locator's 
+LOB data gets copied to the destination locator's LOB data only when the 
+destination locator gets stored in the table.  Therefore, issuing a flush of 
+the object containing the destination locator will copy the LOB data. For 
+FILEs only the locator that refers to the OS file is copied to the table. The
+OS file is not copied.
+Note: The only difference between this and OCILobLocatorAssign is that this
+takes an environment handle whereas OCILobLocatorAssign takes an OCI service
+handle
+
+Parameters
+envhp (IN/OUT) - OCI environment handle initialized in object mode.
+errhp (IN/OUT) - The OCI error handle. If there is an error, it is recorded 
+in errhp and this function returns OCI_ERROR. Diagnostic information can be 
+obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().
+src_locp (IN) - LOB locator to copy from.

+OCI Lob/File Get Chunk Size
+
+Purpose
+When creating the table, the user can specify the chunking factor, which can
+be a multiple of Oracle blocks. This corresponds to the chunk size used by the
+LOB data layer when accessing/modifying the LOB value. Part of the chunk is
+used to store system-related information and the rest stores the LOB value.
+This function returns the amount of space used in the LOB chunk to store 
+the LOB value.

+
+Comments
+ Performance will be improved if the user issues read/write
+requests using a multiple of this chunk size. For writes, there is an added 
+benefit since LOB chunks are versioned and, if all writes are done on chunk
+basis, no extra/excess versioning is done nor duplicated. Users could batch 
+up the write until they have enough for a chunk instead of issuing several
+write calls for the same chunk.

+
+Comments
+Loads/copies a portion or all of a file value into an internal LOB as 
+specified.  The data is copied from the source file to the destination 
+internal LOB (BLOB/CLOB).  No character set conversions are performed 
+when copying the bfile data to a clob/nclob.  The bfile data must already
+be in the same character set as the clob/nclob in the database.  No
+error checking is performed to verify this.
+The source (src_filep) and the destination (dst_locp) LOBs must already exist.
+If the data already exists at the destination's start position, it is 
+overwritten with the source data. If the destination's start position is 
+beyond the end of the current data, a hole is created from the end of the data
+to the beginning of the newly written data from the source. The destination 
+LOB is extended to accommodate the newly written data if it extends 
+beyond the current length of the destination LOB. 
+It is an error to extend the destination LOB beyond the maximum length 
+allowed or to try to copy from a NULL LOB.
+Parameters
+svchp (IN) - the service context handle. 
+errhp (IN/OUT) - an error handle which can be passed to OCIErrorGet() for 
+diagnostic information in the event of an error. 
+dst_locp (IN/OUT) - a locator uniquely referencing the destination internal 
+LOB which may be of type blob, clob, or nclob. 
+src_filep (IN/OUT) - a locator uniquely referencing the source BFILE. 
+amount (IN) - the number of bytes to be copied.
+dst_offset (IN) - this is the absolute offset for the destination LOB. 
+For character LOBs it is the number of characters from the beginning of the 
+LOB at which to begin writing. For binary LOBs it is the number of bytes from 
+the beginning of the lob from which to begin reading. The offset starts at 1.
+src_offset (IN) - this is the absolute offset for the source BFILE.  It is 
+the number of bytes from the beginning of the LOB.  The offset starts at 1.

+
+Comments
+Assign source locator to destination locator.  After the assignment, both 
+locators refer to the same LOB data.  For internal LOBs, the source locator's 
+LOB data gets copied to the destination locator's LOB data only when the 
+destination locator gets stored in the table.  Therefore, issuing a flush of 
+the object containing the destination locator will copy the LOB data. For 
+FILEs only the locator that refers to the OS file is copied to the table. The
+OS file is not copied.
+Note : the only difference between this and OCILobAssign is that this takes
+a OCI service handle pointer instead of a OCI environment handle pointer
+
+Parameters
+svchp (IN/OUT) - OCI service handle initialized in object mode.
+errhp (IN/OUT) - The OCI error handle. If there is an error, it is recorded 
+in errhp and this function returns OCI_ERROR. Diagnostic information can be

+
+Parameters
+svchp (IN/OUT) - the service context handle. 
+errhp (IN/OUT) - an error handle which can be passed to OCIErrorGet() for 
+diagnostic information in the event of an error.
+locp (IN/OUT) - a LOB locator that uniquely references a LOB. 
+offset (IN) - On input, it is the absolute offset, for character LOBs in the 
+number of characters from the beginning of the LOB, for binary LOBs it is the 
+number of bytes. Starts from 1.
+amtp (IN/OUT) - On input, the number of character or bytes to be read. On 
+output, the actual number of bytes or characters read. 
+If the amount of bytes to be read is larger than the buffer length it is 
+assumed that the LOB is being read in a streamed mode. On input if this value 
+is 0, then the data shall be read in streamed mode from the LOB until the end

+the last piece read.  If a callback function is defined, then this callback 
+function will be invoked each time bufl bytes are read off the pipe. Each 
+piece will be written into bufp.
+If the callback function is not defined, then OCI_NEED_DATA error code will 
+be returned. The application must invoke the LOB read over and over again to 
+read more pieces of the LOB until the OCI_NEED_DATA error code is not 
+returned. The buffer pointer and the length can be different in each call

+Comments
+This call allows the password of an account to be changed. This call is 
+similar to OCISessionBegin() with the following differences:
+If the user authentication is already established, it authenticates 
+the account using the old password and then changes the 
+password to the new password
+If the user authentication is not established, it establishes a user 
+authentication and authenticates the account using the old 
+password, then changes the password to the new password.
+This call is useful when the password of an account is expired and 
+OCISessionBegin() returns an error or warning which indicates that the 
+password has expired. 
+Parameters
+svchp (IN/OUT) - a handle to a service context. The service context handle

+Comments
+This call is used to create an association between an OCI application and a 
+particular server. 
+This call initializes a server context handle, which must have been previously 
+allocated with a call to OCIHandleAlloc().
+The server context handle initialized by this call can be associated with a 
+service context through a call to OCIAttrSet(). Once that association has been 
+made, OCI operations can be performed against the server.
+If an application is operating against multiple servers, multiple server 
+context handles can be maintained. OCI operations are performed against 
+whichever server context is currently associated with the service context.
+Parameters
+srvhp (IN/OUT) - an uninitialized server context handle, which gets 
+initialized by this call. Passing in an initialized server handle causes an 
+error. 
+errhp (IN/OUT) - an error handle which can be passed to OCIErrorGet() for 
+diagnostic information in the event of an error.
+dblink (IN) - specifies the database (server) to use. This parameter points to
+a character string which specifies a connect string or a service point. If the 
+connect string is NULL, then this call attaches to the default host. The length
+of connstr is specified in connstr_len. The connstr pointer may be freed by the
+caller on return.
+dblink_len (IN) - the length of the string pointed to by connstr. For a valid 
+connect string name or alias, connstr_len must be non-zero.
+mode (IN) - specifies the various modes of operation.  For release 8.0, pass as
+OCI_DEFAULT - in this mode, calls made to the server on this server context 
+are made in blocking mode.

+OCISessionBegin()
+Name
+OCI Session Begin and authenticate user
+Purpose
+Creates a user authentication and begins a user session for a given server.
+Syntax
+sword OCISessionBegin ( OCISvcCtx     *svchp,
+                      OCIError      *errhp,
+                      OCISession    *usrhp,
+                      ub4           credt,
+                      ub4           mode);
+
+Comments
+For Oracle8, OCISessionBegin() must be called for any given server handle 
+before requests can be made against it. Also, OCISessionBegin() only supports 
+authenticating the user for access to the Oracle server specified by the 
+server handle in the service context. In other words, after OCIServerAttach() 
+is called to initialize a server handle, OCISessionBegin() must be called to 
+authenticate the user for that given server. 
+When OCISessionBegin() is called for the first time for the given server 
+handle, the initialized authentication handle is called a primary 
+authentication context. A primary authentication context may not be created 
+with the OCI_MIGRATE mode. Also, only one primary authentication context can 
+be created for a given server handle and the primary authentication context c
+an only ever be used with that server handle. If the primary authentication 
+context is set in a service handle with a different server handle, then an 
+error will result.
+After OCISessionBegin() has been called for the server handle, and the primary 
+authentication context is set in the service handle, OCISessionBegin() may be 
+called again to initialize another authentication handle with different (or 
+the same) credentials. When OCISessionBegin() is called with a service handle 
+set with a primary authentication context, the returned authentication context
+in authp is called a user authentication context. As many user authentication 
+contexts may be initialized as desired.
+User authentication contexts may be created with the OCI_MIGRATE mode. 
+If the OCI_MIGRATE mode is not specified, then the user authentication 
+context can only ever be used with the same server handle set in svchp. If 
+OCI_MIGRATE mode is specified, then the user authentication may be set 
+with different server handles. However, the user authentication context is 
+restricted to use with only server handles which resolve to the same database 
+instance and that have equivalent primary authentication contexts. Equivalent 
+authentication contexts are those which were authenticated as the same 
+database user.
+OCI_SYSDBA, OCI_SYSOPER, OCI_SYSASM, and OCI_PRELIM_AUTH may only be used 
+with a primary authentication context.
+To provide credentials for a call to OCISessionBegin(), one of two methods are 
+supported. The first is to provide a valid username and password pair for 
+database authentication in the user authentication handle passed to 
+OCISessionBegin(). This involves using OCIAttrSet() to set the 
+OCI_ATTR_USERNAME and OCI_ATTR_PASSWORD attributes on the 
+authentication handle. Then OCISessionBegin() is called with 
+OCI_CRED_RDBMS.
+Note: When the authentication handle is terminated using 
+OCISessionEnd(), the username and password attributes remain 
+unchanged and thus can be re-used in a future call to OCISessionBegin(). 
+Otherwise, they must be reset to new values before the next 
+OCISessionBegin() call.
+The second type of credentials supported are external credentials. No 
+attributes need to be set on the authentication handle before calling 
+OCISessionBegin(). The credential type is OCI_CRED_EXT. This is equivalent 
+to the Oracle7 `connect /' syntax. If values have been set for 
+OCI_ATTR_USERNAME and OCI_ATTR_PASSWORD, then these are 
+ignored if OCI_CRED_EXT is used.
+Parameters
+svchp (IN) - a handle to a service context. There must be a valid server 
+handle set in svchp.
+errhp (IN) - an error handle to the retrieve diagnostic information.
+usrhp (IN/OUT) - a handle to an authentication context, which is initialized 
+by this call.
+credt (IN) - specifies the type of credentials to use for authentication. 
+Valid values for credt are:
+OCI_CRED_RDBMS - authenticate using a database username and 
+password pair as credentials. The attributes OCI_ATTR_USERNAME 
+and OCI_ATTR_PASSWORD should be set on the authentication 
+context before this call.
+OCI_CRED_EXT - authenticate using external credentials. No username 
+or password is provided.
+mode (IN) - specifies the various modes of operation. Valid modes are:
+OCI_DEFAULT - in this mode, the authentication context returned may 
+only ever be set with the same server context specified in svchp. This 
+establishes the primary authentication context.
+OCI_MIGRATE - in this mode, the new authentication context may be 
+set in a service handle with a different server handle. This mode 
+establishes the user authentication context. 
+OCI_SYSDBA - in this mode, the user is authenticated for SYSDBA 
+access.
+OCI_SYSOPER - in this mode, the user is authenticated for SYSOPER 
+access.
+OCI_SYSASM - in this mode, the user is authenticated for SYSASM
+access.  Note that only an ASM instance can grant SYSASM access.
+OCI_PRELIM_AUTH - this mode may only be used with OCI_SYSDBA, OCI_SYSASM, 
+or OCI_SYSOPER to authenticate for certain administration tasks.

+                     ub4                 mode );
+Comments
+This function  is used to execute a prepared SQL statement.
+Using an execute call, the application associates a request with a server. On 
+success, OCI_SUCCESS is returned.
+If a SELECT statement is executed, the description of the select list follows 
+implicitly as a response. This description is buffered on the client side for 
+describes, fetches and define type conversions. Hence it is optimal to 
+describe a select list only after an execute. 
+Also for SELECT statements, some results are available implicitly. Rows will 
+be received and buffered at the end of the execute. For queries with small row 
+count, a prefetch causes memory to be released in the server if the end of 
+fetch is reached, an optimization that may result in memory usage reduction. 
+Set attribute call has been defined to set the number of rows to be prefetched
+per result set.
+For SELECT statements, at the end of the execute, the statement handle 
+implicitly maintains a reference to the service context on which it is 
+executed. It is the user's responsibility to maintain the integrity of the 
+service context. If the attributes of a service context is changed for 
+executing some operations on this service context, the service context must 
+be restored to have the same attributes, that a statement was executed with, 
+prior to a fetch on the statement handle. The implicit reference is maintained 
+until the statement handle is freed or the fetch is cancelled or an end of 
+fetch condition is reached.
+Note: If output variables are defined for a SELECT statement before a 
+call to OCIStmtExecute(), the number of rows specified by iters will be 
+fetched directly into the defined output buffers and additional rows 
+equivalent to the prefetch count will be prefetched. If there are no 
+additional rows, then the fetch is complete without calling 
+OCIStmtFetch().
+The execute call will return errors if the statement has bind data types that 
+are not supported in an Oracle7 server.
+Parameters
+svchp (IN/OUT) - service context handle. 
+stmtp (IN/OUT) - an statement handle - defines the statement and the 
+associated data to be executed at the server. It is invalid to pass in a 
+statement handle that has bind of data types only supported in release 8.0 
+when srvchp points to an Oracle7 server. 
+errhp (IN/OUT) - an error handle which can be passed to OCIErrorGet() for 
+diagnostic information in the event of an error. If the statement is being 
+batched and it is successful, then this handle will contain this particular 
+statement execution specific errors returned from the server when the batch is 
+flushed.
+iters (IN) - the number of times this statement is executed for non-Select 
+statements. For Select statements, if iters is non-zero, then defines must 
+have been done for the statement handle. The execution fetches iters rows into 
+these predefined buffers and prefetches more rows depending upon the prefetch 
+row count. This function returns an error if iters=0 for non-SELECT 
+statements.
+rowoff (IN) - the index from which the data in an array bind is relevant for 
+this multiple row execution. 
+snap_in (IN) - this parameter is optional. if supplied, must point to a 
+snapshot descriptor of type OCI_DTYPE_SNAP.  The contents of this descriptor 
+must be obtained from the snap_out parameter of a previous call.  The 
+descriptor is ignored if the SQL is not a SELECT.  This facility allows 
+multiple service contexts to ORACLE to see the same consistent snapshot of the 
+database's committed data.  However, uncommitted data in one context is not 
+visible to another context even using the same snapshot.
+snap_out (OUT) - this parameter optional. if supplied, must point to a 
+descriptor of type OCI_DTYPE_SNAP. This descriptor is filled in with an 
+opaque representation which is the current ORACLE "system change 
+number" suitable as a snap_in input to a subsequent call to OCIStmtExecute().  
+This descriptor should not be used any longer than necessary in order to avoid 
+"snapshot too old" errors. 
+mode (IN) - The modes are:
+If OCI_DEFAULT_MODE, the default mode, is selected, the request is 
+immediately executed. Error handle contains diagnostics on error if any. 
+OCI_EXACT_FETCH - if the statement is a SQL SELECT, this mode is 
+only valid if the application has set the prefetch row count prior to this 
+call. In this mode, the OCI library will get up to the number of rows 
+specified (i.e., prefetch row count plus iters). If the number of rows 
+returned by the query is greater than this value, OCI_ERROR will be 
+returned with ORA-01422 as the implementation specific error in a 
+diagnostic record. If the number of rows returned by the query is 
+smaller than the prefetch row count, OCI_SUCCESS_WITH_INFO will 
+be returned with ORA-01403 as the implementation specific error. The 
+prefetch buffer size is ignored and the OCI library tries to allocate all the 
+space required to contain the prefetched rows. The exact fetch semantics 
+apply to only the top level rows. No more rows can be fetched for this 
+query at the end of the call. 
+OCI_KEEP_FETCH_STATE - the result set rows (not yet fetched) of this 
+statement executed in this transaction will be maintained when the 
+transaction is detached for migration. By default, a query is cancelled 
+when a transaction is detached for migration. This mode is the default 
+mode when connected to a V7 server.

+Comments
+The fetch call works similar to the OCIStmtFetch call with the

+will be OCI_FETCH_NEXT, and the fetchOffset parameter will be 
+ignored. Applications are encouraged to use this new call. 
+
+A fetchOffset with OCI_FETCH_RELATIVE is equivalent to

+OCI_FETCH_NEXT with a value of 1, and equivalent to 
+OCI_FETCH_PRIOR with a value of -1. Note that the range of

+Comments
+Toggles between an Oracle8 service context handle and an Oracle7 Lda_Def.
+This function can only be called after a service context has been properly 
+initialized.
+Once the service context has been translated to an Lda_Def, it can be used in 
+release 7.x OCI calls (e.g., obindps(), ofen()).
+Note: If there are multiple service contexts which share the same server 
+handle, only one can be in V7 mode at any time.
+The action of this call can be reversed by passing the resulting Lda_Def to 
+the OCILdaToSvcCtx() function.
+Parameters
+svchp (IN/OUT) - the service context handle. 
+errhp (IN/OUT) - an error handle which can be passed to OCIErrorGet() for 
+diagnostic information in the event of an error. 
+ldap (IN/OUT) - a Logon Data Area for V7-style OCI calls which is initialized

+                     ub4          flags );
+Comments
+The transaction currently associated with the service context is committed. If 
+it is a distributed transaction that the server cannot commit, this call 
+additionally retrieves the state of the transaction from the database to be 
+returned to the user in the error handle.
+If the application has defined multiple transactions, this function operates 
+on the transaction currently associated with the service context. If the 
+application is working with only the implicit local transaction created when 
+database changes are made, that implicit transaction is committed.
+If the application is running in the object mode, then the modified or updated 
+objects in the object cache for this transaction are also committed.
+The flags parameter is used for one-phase commit optimization in distributed 
+transactions. If the transaction is non-distributed, the flags parameter is 
+ignored, and OCI_DEFAULT can be passed as its value. OCI applications 
+managing global transactions should pass a value of 
+OCI_TRANS_TWOPHASE to the flags parameter for a two-phase commit. The 
+default is one-phase commit.
+Under normal circumstances, OCITransCommit() returns with a status 
+indicating that the transaction has either been committed or rolled back. With 
+distributed transactions, it is possible that the transaction is now in-doubt 
+(i.e., neither committed nor aborted). In this case, OCITransCommit() 
+attempts to retrieve the status of the transaction from the server. 
+The status is returned.
+Parameters
+srvcp (IN) - the service context handle.
+errhp (IN) - an error handle which can be passed to OCIErrorGet() for 
+diagnostic information in the event of an error.

+Comments
+Detaches a global transaction from the service context handle. The transaction 
+currently attached to the service context handle becomes inactive at the end 
+of this call. The transaction may be resumed later by calling OCITransStart(), 
+specifying  a flags value of OCI_TRANS_RESUME.
+When a transaction is detached, the value which was specified in the timeout 
+parameter of OCITransStart() when the transaction was started is used to 
+determine the amount of time the branch can remain inactive before being 
+deleted by the server's PMON process.
+Note: The transaction can be resumed by a different process than the one 
+that detached it, provided that the transaction has the same

+                              DESCRIPTION
+******************************************************************************
+1 Threads Interface
+
+The OCIThread package provides a number of commonly used threading
+primitives for use by Oracle customers.  It offers a portable interface to
+threading capabilities native to various platforms.  It does not implement
+threading on platforms which do not have native threading capability.
+
+OCIThread does not provide a portable implementation of multithreaded 
+facilities.  It only serves as a set of portable covers for native 
+multithreaded facilities.  Therefore, platforms that do not have native 
+support for multi-threading will only be able to support a limited 
+implementation of OCIThread.  As a result, products that rely on all of 
+OCIThread's functionality will not port to all platforms.  Products that must 
+port to all platforms must use only a subset of OCIThread's functionality.  
+This issue is discussed further in later sections of this document.
+
+The OCIThread API is split into four main parts.  Each part is described
+briefly here.  The following subsections describe each in greater detail.
+
+ 1. Initialization and Termination Calls
+
+     These calls deal with the initialization and termination of OCIThread.
+     Initialization of OCIThread initializes the OCIThread context which is
+     a member of the OCI environment or session handle.  This context is 
+     required for other OCIThread calls.
+
+ 2. Passive Threading Primitives
+
+     The passive threading primitives include primitives to manipulate mutual
+     exclusion (mutex) locks, thread ID's, and thread-specific data keys.
+
+     The reason that these primitives are described as 'passive' is that while
+     their specifications allow for the existence of multiple threads, they do
+     not require it.  This means that it is possible for these primitives to
+     be implemented according to specification in both single-threaded and
+     multi-threaded environments.
+
+     As a result, OCIThread clients that use only these primitives will not
+     require the existence of multiple threads in order to work correctly,
+     i.e., they will be able to work in single-threaded environments without 
+     branching code.
+
+ 3. Active Threading Primitives
+
+     Active threading primitives include primitives dealing with the creation,
+     termination, and other manipulation of threads.
+
+     The reason that these primitives are described as 'active' is that they
+     can only be used in true multi-threaded environments.  Their
+     specifications explicitly require that it be possible to have multiple
+     threads.  If you need to determine at runtime whether or not you are in a
+     multi-threaded environment, call OCIThreadIsMulti() before calling an
+     OCIThread active primitive.
+
+
+1.1 Initialization & Termination
+==================================
+
+The types and functions described in this section are associated with the
+initialization and termination of the OCIThread package.  OCIThread must
+be properly initialized before any of its functionality can be used.
+OCIThread's process initialization function, 'OCIThreadProcessInit()',
+must be called with care; see below.
+
+The observed behavior of the initialization and termination functions is the
+same regardless of whether OCIThread is in single-threaded or multi-threaded
+environment.  It is OK to call the initialization functions from both generic
+and operating system specific (OSD) code.
+
+1.1.1 Types
+
+  OCIThreadContext - OCIThread Context
+  -------------------------------------
+
+    Most calls to OCIThread functions take the OCI environment or session 
+    handle as a parameter.  The OCIThread context is part of the OCI 
+    environment or session handle and it must be initialized by calling 
+    'OCIThreadInit()'.  Termination of the OCIThread context occurs by calling
+    'OCIThreadTerm()'.
+
+    The OCIThread context is a private data structure.  Clients must NEVER
+    attempt to examine the contents of the context.
+
+1.1.2  OCIThreadProcessInit
+
+  OCIThreadProcessInit - OCIThread Process INITialization
+  --------------------------------------------------------
+
+    Description
+
+      This function should be called to perform OCIThread process
+      initialization.
+
+    Prototype
+
+      void OCIThreadProcessInit();
+
+    Returns
+
+      Nothing.
+
+    Notes
+
+      Whether or not this function needs to be called depends on how OCI
+      Thread is going to be used.
+
+        * In a single-threaded application, calling this function is optional.
+          If it is called at all, the first call to it must occur before calls
+          to any other OCIThread functions.  Subsequent calls can be made
+          without restriction; they will not have any effect.
+
+        * In a multi-threaded application, this function MUST be called.  The
+          first call to it MUST occur 'strictly before' any other OCIThread
+          calls; i.e., no other calls to OCIThread functions (including other
+          calls to this one) can be concurrent with the first call.
+          Subsequent calls to this function can be made without restriction;
+          they will not have any effect.
+
+
+1.1.3 OCIThreadInit
+
+  OCIThreadInit - OCIThread INITialize
+  -------------------------------------
+
+    Description
+
+      This initializes OCIThread context.
+
+    Prototype
+
+      sword OCIThreadInit(void *hndl, OCIError *err);
+
+        hndl(IN/OUT): The OCI environment or session handle.
+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error and OCI_ERROR
+                     is returned, the error is recorded in err and diagnostic 
+                     information can be obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().
+
+    Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      It is illegal for OCIThread clients to try an examine the memory
+      pointed to by the returned pointer.
+
+      It is safe to make concurrent calls to 'OCIThreadInit()'.  Unlike
+      'OCIThreadProcessInit()',  there is no need to have a first call
+      that occurs before all the others.
+
+      The first time 'OCIThreadInit()' is called, it initilaizes the OCI
+      Thread context.  It also saves a pointer to the context in some system
+      dependent manner.  Subsequent calls to 'OCIThreadInit()' will return
+      the same context.
+
+      Each call to 'OCIThreadInit()' must eventually be matched by a call to
+      'OCIThreadTerm()'.
+
+  OCIThreadTerm - OCIThread TERMinate
+  ------------------------------------
+
+    Description
+
+      This should be called to release the OCIThread context.  It should be
+      called exactly once for each call made to 'OCIThreadInit()'.
+
+    Prototype
+
+      sword OCIThreadTerm(void *hndl, OCIError *err);
+
+        hndl(IN/OUT): The OCI environment or session handle.
+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error and OCI_ERROR
+                     is returned, the error is recorded in err and diagnostic 
+                     information can be obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().
+
+    Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      It is safe to make concurrent calls to 'OCIThreadTerm()'.
+
+      'OCIThreadTerm()' will not do anything until it has been called as
+      many times as 'OCIThreadInit()' has been called.  When that happens,
+      it terminates the OCIThread layer and frees the memory allocated for
+      the context.  Once this happens, the context should not be re-used.
+      It will be necessary to obtain a new one by calling 'OCIThreadInit()'.
+
+
+  OCIThreadIsMulti - OCIThread Is Multi-Threaded?
+  ------------------------------------------------
+
+    Description
+
+      This tells the caller whether the application is running in a
+      multi-threaded environment or a single-threaded environment.
+
+    Prototype
+      boolean OCIThreadIsMulti(void);
+
+    Returns
+
+      TRUE if the environment is multi-threaded;
+      FALSE if the environment is single-threaded.
+
+
+1.2 Passive Threading Primitives
+==================================
+
+1.2.1 Types
+
+The passive threading primitives deal with the manipulation of mutex, 
+thread ID's, and thread-specific data.  Since the specifications of these 
+primitives do not require the existence of multiple threads, they can be 
+used both on multithreaded and single-threaded platforms.
+
+1.2.1.1  OCIThreadMutex - OCIThread Mutual Exclusion Lock
+-----------------------------------------------------------
+
+  The type 'OCIThreadMutex' is used to represent a mutual exclusion lock
+  (mutex).  A mutex is typically used for one of two purposes: (i) to
+  ensure that only one thread accesses a given set of data at a time, or
+  (ii) to ensure that only one thread executes a given critical section of
+  code at a time.
+
+  Mutexes pointer can be declared as parts of client structures or as 
+  stand-alone variables.  Before they can be used, they must be initialized 
+  using 'OCIThreadMutexInit()'.  Once they are no longer needed, they must be
+  destroyed using 'OCIThreadMutexDestroy()'.  A mutex pointer must NOT be 
+  used after it is destroyed.
+
+  A thread can acquire a mutex by using either 'OCIThreadMutexAcquire()' or
+  'OCIThreadMutexTry()'.  They both ensure that only one thread at a time is
+  allowed to hold a given mutex.  A thread that holds a mutex can release it
+  by calling 'OCIThreadMutexRelease()'.
+
+
+1.2.1.2  OCIThreadKey - OCIThread Key for Thread-Specific Data
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+
+  A key can be thought of as a process-wide variable that has a
+  thread-specific value.  What this means is that all the threads in a
+  process can use any given key.  However, each thread can examine or modify
+  that key independently of the other threads.  The value that a thread sees
+  when it examines the key will always be the same as the value that it last
+  set for the key.  It will not see any values set for the key by the other
+  threads.
+
+  The type of the value held by a key is a 'void *' generic pointer.
+
+  Keys can be created using 'OCIThreadKeyInit()'.  When a key is created, its
+  value is initialized to 'NULL' for all threads.
+
+  A thread can set a key's value using 'OCIThreadKeySet()'.  A thread can
+  get a key's value using 'OCIThreadKeyGet()'.
+
+  The OCIThread key functions will save and retrieve data SPECIFIC TO THE
+  THREAD.  When clients maintain a pool of threads and assign the threads to
+  different tasks, it *may not* be appropriate for a task to use OCIThread
+  key functions to save data associated with it.  Here is a scenario of how
+  things can fail: A thread is assigned to execute the initialization of a
+  task.  During the initialization, the task stored some data related to it
+  in the thread using OCIThread key functions.  After the initialization,
+  the thread is returned back to the threads pool.  Later, the threads pool
+  manager assigned another thread to perform some operations on the task,
+  and the task needs to retrieve those data it stored earlier in
+  initialization.  Since the task is running in another thread, it will not
+  be able to retrieve the same data back!  Applications that use thread
+  pools should be aware of this and be cautious when using OCIThread key
+  functions.
+
+
+1.2.1.3  OCIThreadKeyDestFunc - OCIThread Key Destructor Function Type
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+  This is the type of a pointer to a key's destructor routine.  Keys can be
+  associated with a destructor routine when they are created (see
+  'OCIThreadKeyInit()').
+
+  A key's destructor routine will be called whenever a thread that has a
+  non-NULL value for the key terminates.
+
+  The destructor routine returns nothing and takes one parameter.  The
+  parameter will be the value that was set for key when the thread
+  terminated.
+
+  The destructor routine is guaranteed to be called on a thread's value
+  in the key after the termination of the thread and before process
+  termination.  No more precise guarantee can be made about the timing
+  of the destructor routine call; thus no code in the process may assume
+  any post-condition of the destructor routine.  In particular, the
+  destructor is not guaranteed to execute before a join call on the
+  terminated thread returns.
+
+
+1.2.1.4  OCIThreadId - OCIThread Thread ID
+--------------------------------------------
+
+  Type 'OCIThreadId' is the type that will be used to identify a thread.
+  At any given time, no two threads will ever have the same 'OCIThreadId'.
+  However, 'OCIThreadId' values can be recycled; i.e., once a thread dies,
+  a new thread may be created that has the same 'OCIThreadId' as the one
+  that died.  In particular, the thread ID must uniquely identify a thread
+  T within a process, and it must be consistent and valid in all threads U
+  of the process for which it can be guaranteed that T is running
+  concurrently with U.  The thread ID for a thread T must be retrievable
+  within thread T.  This will be done via OCIThreadIdGet().
+
+  The 'OCIThreadId' type supports the concept of a NULL thread ID: the NULL
+  thread ID will never be the same as the ID of an actual thread.
+

+1.2.2 Function prototypes for passive primitives
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+1.2.2.1 Mutex functions
+-------------------------
+
+  OCIThreadMutexInit - OCIThread MuteX Initialize
+  -----------------------------------------------
+
+    Description
+
+      This allocate and initializes a mutex.  All mutexes must be 
+      initialized prior to use.
+
+    Prototype
+
+      sword OCIThreadMutexInit(void *hndl, OCIError *err, 
+                               OCIThreadMutex **mutex);
+
+        hndl(IN/OUT): The OCI environment or session handle.
+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error and OCI_ERROR
+                     is returned, the error is recorded in err and diagnostic 
+                     information can be obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().
+
+        mutex(OUT):  The mutex to initialize.
+
+    Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      Multiple threads must not initialize the same mutex simultaneously.
+      Also, a mutex must not be reinitialized until it has been destroyed (see
+      'OCIThreadMutexDestroy()').
+
+  OCIThreadMutexDestroy - OCIThread MuteX Destroy
+  -----------------------------------------------
+
+    Description
+
+      This destroys and deallocate a mutex.  Each mutex must be destroyed 
+      once it is no longer needed.
+
+    Prototype
+
+      sword OCIThreadMutexDestroy(void *hndl, OCIError *err,
+                                  OCIThreadMutex **mutex);
+
+        hndl(IN/OUT): The OCI environment or session handle.
+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error and OCI_ERROR
+                     is returned, the error is recorded in err and diagnostic 
+                     information can be obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().
+
+        mutex(IN/OUT):   The mutex to destroy.
+
+    Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      It is not legal to destroy a mutex that is uninitialized or is currently
+      held by a thread.  The destruction of a mutex must not occur concurrently
+      with any other operations on the mutex.  A mutex must not be used after
+      it has been destroyed.
+
+
+  OCIThreadMutexAcquire - OCIThread MuteX Acquire
+  -----------------------------------------------
+
+    Description
+
+      This acquires a mutex for the thread in which it is called.  If the mutex
+      is held by another thread, the calling thread is blocked until it can
+      acquire the mutex.
+
+    Prototype
+
+     sword OCIThreadMutexAcquire(void *hndl, OCIError *err,
+                                 OCIThreadMutex *mutex);
+
+        hndl(IN/OUT): The OCI environment or session handle.
+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error, it is 
+                     recorded in err and this function returns OCI_ERROR.  
+                     Diagnostic information can be obtained by calling 
+                     OCIErrorGet().
+
+        mutex(IN/OUT):   The mutex to acquire.
+
+    Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      It is illegal to attempt to acquire an uninitialized mutex.
+
+      This function's behavior is undefined if it is used by a thread to
+      acquire a mutex that is already held by that thread.
+
+
+
+  OCIThreadMutexRelease - OCIThread MuteX Release
+  -----------------------------------------------
+
+    Description
+
+      This releases a mutex.  If there are any threads blocked on the mutex,
+      one of them will acquire it and become unblocked.
+
+    Prototype
+
+      sword OCIThreadMutexRelease(void *hndl, OCIError *err,
+                                  OCIThreadMutex *mutex);
+
+        hndl(IN/OUT): The OCI environment or session handle.
+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error and OCI_ERROR
+                     is returned, the error is recorded in err and diagnostic 
+                     information can be obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().
+
+        mutex(IN/OUT):   The mutex to release.
+
+    Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      It is illegal to attempt to release an uninitialized mutex.  It is also
+      illegal for a thread to release a mutex that it does not hold.
+
+
+  OCIThreadKeyInit - OCIThread KeY Initialize
+  -------------------------------------------
+
+    Description
+
+      This creates a key.  Each call to this routine allocate and generates 
+      a new key that is distinct from all other keys.
+
+    Prototype
+
+      sword OCIThreadKeyInit(void *hndl, OCIError *err, OCIThreadKey **key,
+                             OCIThreadKeyDestFunc destFn);
+
+        hndl(IN/OUT): The OCI environment or session handle.
+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error and OCI_ERROR
+                     is returned, the error is recorded in err and diagnostic 
+                     information can be obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().
+
+        key(OUT):    The 'OCIThreadKey' in which to create the new key.
+
+        destFn(IN):  The destructor for the key.  NULL is permitted.
+
+    Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      Once this function executes successfully, a pointer to an allocated and 
+      initialized key is return.  That key can be used with 'OCIThreadKeyGet()'
+      and 'OCIThreadKeySet()'.  The initial value of the key will be 'NULL' for
+      all threads.
+
+      It is illegal for this function to be called more than once to create the
+      same key (i.e., to be called more than once with the same value for the
+      'key' parameter).
+
+      If the 'destFn' parameter is not NULL, the routine pointed to by 'destFn'
+      will be called whenever a thread that has a non-NULL value for the key
+      terminates.  The routine will be called with one parameter.  The
+      parameter will be the key's value for the thread at the time at which the
+      thread terminated.
+      If the key does not need a destructor function, pass NULL for 'destFn'.
+
+
+  OCIThreadKeyDestroy - OCIThread KeY DESTROY
+  -------------------------------------------
+
+   Description
+
+     Destroy and deallocate the key pointed to by 'key'.
+
+    Prototype
+
+      sword OCIThreadKeyDestroy(void *hndl, OCIError *err, 
+                                OCIThreadKey **key);
+
+        hndl(IN/OUT): The OCI environment or session handle.
+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error and OCI_ERROR
+                     is returned, the error is recorded in err and diagnostic 
+                     information can be obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().
+
+        key(IN/OUT):  The 'OCIThreadKey' in which to destroy the key.
+ 
+    Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      This is different from the destructor function callback passed to the
+      key create routine.  This new destroy function 'OCIThreadKeyDestroy' is 
+      used to terminate any resources OCI THREAD acquired when it created 
+      'key'.  [The 'OCIThreadKeyDestFunc' callback type is a key VALUE 
+      destructor; it does in no way operate on the key itself.]
+
+      This must be called once the user has finished using the key.  Not
+      calling the key destroy function may result in memory leaks.
+
+
+
+
+1.2.2.2 Thread Key operations
+-------------------------------
+
+  OCIThreadKeyGet - OCIThread KeY Get value
+  -----------------------------------------
+
+    Description
+
+      This gets the calling thread's current value for a key.
+
+    Prototype

+      sword OCIThreadKeyGet(void *hndl, OCIError *err, OCIThreadKey *key,
+                            void **pValue);
+
+        hndl(IN/OUT): The OCI environment or session handle.
+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error and OCI_ERROR
+                     is returned, the error is recorded in err and diagnostic 
+                     information can be obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().
+
+        key(IN):          The key.
+
+        pValue(IN/OUT):   The location in which to place the thread-specific
+                          key value.
+
+    Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      It is illegal to use this function on a key that has not been created
+      using 'OCIThreadKeyInit()'.
+
+      If the calling thread has not yet assigned a value to the key, 'NULL' is
+      placed in the location pointed to by 'pValue'.
+
+
+  OCIThreadKeySet - OCIThread KeY Set value
+  -----------------------------------------
+
+    Description
+
+      This sets the calling thread's value for a key.
+
+    Prototype
+
+      sword OCIThreadKeySet(void *hndl, OCIError *err, OCIThreadKey *key,
+                            void *value);
+
+        hndl(IN/OUT): The OCI environment or session handle.
+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error and OCI_ERROR
+                     is returned, the error is recorded in err and diagnostic 
+                     information can be obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().
+
+        key(IN/OUT): The key.
+
+        value(IN):   The thread-specific value to set in the key.
+
+    Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      It is illegal to use this function on a key that has not been created
+      using 'OCIThreadKeyInit()'.
+

+
+        tid (OUT):   Pointer to the thread ID to initialize.

+
+      This sets one 'OCIThreadId' to another.
+
+    Prototype

+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error and OCI_ERROR

+                     information can be obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().
+
+        tidDest(OUT):   This should point to the location of the 'OCIThreadId'
+                        to be set to.
+
+        tidSrc(IN):     This should point to the 'OCIThreadId' to set from.
+
+    Returns

+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      'tid' should be initialized by OCIThreadIdInit().
+
+
+  OCIThreadIdSetNull - OCIThread Thread Id Set Null
+  ---------------------------------------------------------
+
+    Description
+
+      This sets the NULL thread ID to a given 'OCIThreadId'.

+
+        hndl(IN/OUT): The OCI environment or session handle.
+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error, it is 
+                     recorded in err and this function returns OCI_ERROR.  
+                     Diagnostic information can be obtained by calling 
+                     OCIErrorGet().
+
+        tid(OUT):    This should point to the 'OCIThreadId' in which to put
+                     the NULL thread ID.
+
+    Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.

+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      'tid' should be initialized by OCIThreadIdInit().
+
+      When OCIThread is used in a single-threaded environment,
+      OCIThreadIdGet() will always place the same value in the location
+      pointed to by 'tid'.  The exact value itself is not important.  The
+      important thing is that it is not the same as the NULL thread ID and
+      that it is always the same value.
+
+
+  OCIThreadIdSame - OCIThread Thread Ids Same?

+
+        hndl(IN/OUT): The OCI environment or session handle.
+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error and OCI_ERROR
+                     is returned, the error is recorded in err and diagnostic 
+                     information can be obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().

+        result(IN/OUT): Pointer to the result.
+
+    Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      If 'tid1' and 'tid2' represent the same thread, 'result' is set to TRUE.
+      Otherwise, 'result' is set to FALSE.
+
+      'result' is set to TRUE if both 'tid1' and 'tid2' are the NULL thread ID.
+
+      'ti1d' and 'tid2' should be initialized by OCIThreadIdInit().
+
+
+  OCIThreadIdNull - OCIThread Thread Id NULL?
+  ---------------------------------------------
+
+    Description
+
+      This determines whether or not a given 'OCIThreadId' is the NULL thread
+      ID.

+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error and OCI_ERROR
+                     is returned, the error is recorded in err and diagnostic 
+                     information can be obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().
+
+        tid(IN):    Pointer to the 'OCIThreadId' to check.
+
+        result(IN/OUT): Pointer to the result.
+
+    Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      If 'tid' is the NULL thread ID, 'result' is set to TRUE.  Otherwise, 
+      'result' is set to FALSE.
+
+      'tid' should be initialized by OCIThreadIdInit().
+
+
+1.3 Active Threading Primitives
+=================================
+
+The active threading primitives deal with the manipulation of actual
+threads.  Because the specifications of most of these primitives require
+that it be possible to have multiple threads, they work correctly only in
+the enabled OCIThread; In the disabled OCIThread, they always return
+failure.  The exception is OCIThreadHandleGet(); it may be called in a 
+single-threaded environment, in which case it will have no effect.
+
+Active primitives should only be called by code running in a multi-threaded
+environment.  You can call OCIThreadIsMulti() to determine whether the 
+environment is multi-threaded or single-threaded.
+
+
+1.3.1  Types
+--------------
+
+1.3.1.1    OCIThreadHandle - OCIThread Thread Handle
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+  Type 'OCIThreadHandle' is used to manipulate a thread in the active
+  primitives:  OCIThreadJoin()and OCIThreadClose().  A thread handle opened by
+  OCIThreadCreate() must be closed in a matching call to
+  OCIThreadClose().  A thread handle is invalid after the call to
+  OCIThreadClose().
+
+  The distinction between a thread ID and a thread handle in OCIThread usage
+  follows the distinction between the thread ID and the thread handle on
+  Windows NT.  On many platforms, the underlying native types are the same.

+
+    Notes
+
+      'thnd' should be initialized by OCIThreadHndInit().
+
+
+  OCIThreadCreate - OCIThread Thread Create
+  -----------------------------------------
+
+    Description
+
+      This creates a new thread.
+
+    Prototype
+
+      sword OCIThreadCreate(void *hndl, OCIError *err,
+                            void (*start)(void *), void *arg,
+                            OCIThreadId *tid, OCIThreadHandle *tHnd);
+
+        hndl(IN/OUT): The OCI environment or session handle.
+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error and OCI_ERROR
+                     is returned, the error is recorded in err and diagnostic 
+                     information can be obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().
+
+        start(IN):    The function in which the new thread should begin
+                      execution.
+
+        arg(IN):      The argument to give the function pointed to by 'start'.
+
+        tid(IN/OUT):  If not NULL, gets the ID for the new thread.
+
+        tHnd(IN/OUT): If not NULL, gets the handle for the new thread.
+
+    Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      The new thread will start by executing a call to the function pointed
+      to by 'start' with the argument given by 'arg'.  When that function
+      returns, the new thread will terminate.  The function should not
+      return a value and should accept one parameter, a 'void *'.
+
+      The call to OCIThreadCreate() must be matched by a call to
+      OCIThreadClose() if and only if tHnd is non-NULL.
+
+      If tHnd is NULL, a thread ID placed in *tid will not be valid in the
+      calling thread because the timing of the spawned thread's termination
+      is unknown.
+
+      'tid' should be initialized by OCIThreadIdInit().
+
+      'thnd' should be initialized by OCIThreadHndInit().
+
+
+
+  OCIThreadJoin - OCIThread Thread Join
+  -------------------------------------
+
+    Description
+
+      This function allows the calling thread to 'join' with another thread.
+      It blocks the caller until the specified thread terminates.
+
+    Prototype
+
+      sword OCIThreadJoin(void *hndl, OCIError *err, OCIThreadHandle *tHnd);
+
+        hndl(IN/OUT): The OCI environment or session handle.
+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error and OCI_ERROR
+                     is returned, the error is recorded in err and diagnostic 
+                     information can be obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().
+
+        tHnd(IN):    The 'OCIThreadHandle' of the thread to join with.
+
+    Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      'thnd' should be initialized by OCIThreadHndInit().
+
+      The result of multiple threads all trying to join with the same thread is
+      undefined.
+
+
+  OCIThreadClose - OCIThread Thread Close
+  ---------------------------------------
+
+   Description
+
+     This function should be called to close a thread handle.
+
+   Prototype
+
+     sword OCIThreadClose(void *hndl, OCIError *err, OCIThreadHandle *tHnd);
+
+        hndl(IN/OUT): The OCI environment or session handle.
+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error and OCI_ERROR
+                     is returned, the error is recorded in err and diagnostic 
+                     information can be obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().
+
+        tHnd(IN/OUT):    The OCIThread thread handle to close.
+
+   Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+   Notes
+
+      'thnd' should be initialized by OCIThreadHndInit().
+
+      Both thread handle and the thread ID that was returned by the same call
+      to OCIThreadCreate() are invalid after the call to OCIThreadClose().
+
+
+
+  OCIThreadHandleGet - OCIThread Thread Get Handle
+  ------------------------------------------------
+
+    Description
+
+      Retrieve the 'OCIThreadHandle' of the thread in which it is called.
+
+    Prototype
+
+      sword OCIThreadHandleGet(void *hndl, OCIError *err,
+                               OCIThreadHandle *tHnd);
+
+        hndl(IN/OUT): The OCI environment or session handle.
+
+        err(IN/OUT): The OCI error handle.  If there is an error and OCI_ERROR
+                     is returned, the error is recorded in err and diagnostic 
+                     information can be obtained by calling OCIErrorGet().
+
+        tHnd(IN/OUT):      If not NULL, the location to place the thread
+                           handle for the thread.
+
+     Returns
+
+      OCI_SUCCESS, OCI_ERROR or OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+
+    Notes
+
+      'thnd' should be initialized by OCIThreadHndInit().   
+
+      The thread handle 'tHnd' retrieved by this function must be closed 
+      with OCIThreadClose() and destroyed by OCIThreadHndDestroy() after it
+      is used.
+
+
+
+
+1.4 Using OCIThread
+=====================
+
+This section summarizes some of the more important details relating to the use
+of OCIThread.
+
+  * Process initialization
+
+    OCIThread only requires that the process initialization function
+    ('OCIThreadProcessInit()') be called when OCIThread is being used in a
+    multi-threaded application.  Failing to call 'OCIThreadProcessInit()' in
+    a single-threaded application is not an error.
+
+  * OCIThread initialization
+
+    Separate calls to 'OCIThreadInit()' will all return the same OCIThread
+    context.
+
+    Also, remember that each call to 'OCIThreadInit()' must eventually be
+    matched by a call to 'OCIThreadTerm()'.
+
+  * Active vs. Passive Threading primitives
+
+    OCIThread client code written without using any active primitives can be
+    compiled and used without change on both single-threaded and
+    multi-threaded platforms.
+
+    OCIThread client code written using active primitives will only work
+    correctly on multi-threaded platforms.  In order to write a version of the
+    same application to run on single-threaded platform, it is necessary to 
+    branch the your code, whether by branching versions of the source file or 
+    by branching at runtime with the OCIThreadIsMulti() call.

+                              DESCRIPTION
+
+-----------------------------OCIXmlDbInitXmlCtx---------------------------------
+Name
+OCIXmlDbInitXmlCtx
+Purpose
+To get a xmlctx structure initialized with error-handler and XDB callbacks. 
+Syntax
+struct xmlctx *OCIXmlDbInitXmlCtx (OCIEnv           *envhp,
+                                 OCISvcCtx        *svchp, 
+                                 OCIError         *err, 
+                                 params_ocixmldb *params,
+                                 int               num_params);
+Parameters
+envhp (IN) - The OCI environment handle
+svchp (IN) - The OCI service handle
+errhp (IN) - The OCI error handle
+params (IN)- This contains the following optional parameters :
+   (a) OCIDuration dur (IN - The OCI Duration (Default: OCI_DURATION_SESSION)
+   (b) void (*err_handler) (sword, (const oratext *) (IN) - 
+       Pointer to the error handling function (Default: null)
+num_params (IN) - Number of parameters to be read from parameter params.
+                  If the value of num_params exceeds the size of array 
+                  "params", unexpected behavior will result.
+
+Returns

+      If this mode is not specified then the columns returned is the union
+      of the NEW columns plus the OLD columns that are not present in the 
+      NEW column list.

+   NAME
+       OCIXStreamOutLCRCallbackReceive - OCI Receive LCR stream using Callbacks
+   DESCRIPTION
+       This API is used to get the LCR stream from the outbound server using 
+       callbacks to gain better performance. The user must supply a callback 
+       function to be invoked for each LCR received. If some row changes 
+       in the stream may contain LOB/LONG/XMLType columns then the data for
+       those columns are returned to the user in chunks. To receive those row
+       changes, the user must provide a second callback to be invoked to
+       process each chunk data.
+
+       If there is an LCR available in the stream, the processlcr_cb function 
+       is invoked immediately. After the processlcr_cb function exits, if the 
+       current LCR contains additional chunks then the processchunk_cb function
+       is invoked for each chunk belonging to that LCR.  
+
+       If there is no LCR in the stream when the idle timeout expires (see
+       OCI_ATTR_XSTREAM_IDLE_TIMEOUT), this call returns a null LCR with 
+       OCI_SUCCESS code.

+   NOTES

+        with commit position below this have been received by the XStream
+        outbound server.
+
+      - If the LCR contains non-chunked column(s), the duration of that LCR is
+        limited to the processlcr_cb function. If the LCR contains some 
+        chunk data then the duration of the LCR is extended until all the 
+        chunks have been processed (that is, when the flag passing to
+        processchunk_cb function does not have OCI_XSTREAM_MORE_ROW_DATA flag
+        set). If the user wants to access the LCR data at a later time, a 
+        copy of the LCR must be made.  The client callback should not modify 
+        or free the LCR passing to the callback. 
+
+        If the OCIXSTREAM_OUT_ATTACH_APP_FREE_LCR mode is passed to 
+        OCIXStreamOutAttach call then the application is in charge of calling
+        OCILCRFree to free each LCR. Note, this mode does not apply to the

+        immediately after each OCIXStreamOutChunkReceive call.
+        
+      - The given usrctxp is passed to both callbacks.
+
+      - An ACK interval is the interval in seconds which the outbound
+        server receives the processed LWM or the inbound server sends

+       has expired.
+
+       The client must not modify the LCR received from the outbound server.
+       The duration of each LCR is until the next OCIXStreamOutLCRReceive call.

+       immediately after each OCIXStreamOutChunkReceive call.
+
+       To avoid network round trip for every OCIXStreamOutLCRReceive call, 
+       the connection is tied to this call to let the server fill up 
+       the network buffer with LCRs so subsequent calls can quickly receive 
+       the LCRs from the network. The server ends each call at the 
+       transaction boundary after an ACK interval has elapsed since the start
+       of the call or when the idle timeout expires. See

+       errhp       (IN/OUT) - Error Handle to which errors should be reported
+       column_name     (IN) - Name of column for which data is sent.
+                              Column names must be canonicalized and must 
+                              follow Oracle naming conventions.
+       column_name_len (IN) - Length of column name.
+       column_dty      (IN) - LCR column data type (must be SQLT_CHR or 
+                              SQLT_BIN).

+                                OCI_LCR_COLUMN_XML_DIFF
+       column_csid     (IN) - Column character set id. This is required only
+                              if the column is an XMLType column (i.e., 
+                              column_flag has OCI_LCR_COLUMN_XML_DATA bit set).
+       chunk_bytes     (IN) - Chunk data length in bytes.
+       chunk_data      (IN) - Chunk data buffer.
+       flag            (IN) - If OCI_XSTREAM_MORE_ROW_DATA is set, it means

+RETURNS
+   OCI_SUCCESS - Successful call.
+   OCI_ERROR   - Error encountered. Execute OCIErrorGet to get information
+                 about the error.
+NOTES
+ - This function must be called while OCIXStreamInLCRSend is in progress.
+   
+ - This function is valid only if the associated LCR's cmd type is
+   INSERT, UPDATE or LOB_WRITE. It can be invoked multiple times for the
+   same LCR. 
+
+ - This API is not valid for LOB_ERASE and LOB_TRIM LCRs.
+
+ - The chunk values for different columns can not be interleaved. If a 
+   column contains multiple chunks, this procedure must be called 
+   consecutively using the same column name before proceeding to a new column. 
+   The ordering in which the LOB/LONG/XMLType column values are set is 
+   irrelevant. 
+
+ - The OCI_LCR_COLUMN_LAST_CHUNK must be specified for the last chunk of
+   each column. 
+
+ - Only one column can be specified for LOB_WRITE operation.
+
+ - For NCLOB or varying width CLOB, the input buffer must be in 
+   AL16UTF16 format.
+
+ - For INSERT operation, each LOB/LONG/XMLType column, with value set using 
+   OCIXStreamInChunkSend, must be included in the current LCR's NEW 
+   column list. The value of that LOB/LONG/XMLType column must be set to 
+   null and must have OCI_LCR_COLUMN_EMPTY_LOB flag defined.

+
+  oracchf : Check cursor cache consistency flag. If set AND oradbgf
+            is set, then directs SQLLIB to perform cursor cache
+            consistency checks before every cursor operation
+            (OPEN, FETCH, SELECT, INSERT, etc.).
+  oradbgf : Master DEBUG flag. Used to turn all DEBUG options
+            on or off.
+  orahchf : Check Heap consistency flag. If set AND oradbgf is set,
+            then directs SQLLIB to perform heap consistency checks
+            everytime memory is dynamically allocated/free'd via
+            sqlalc/sqlfre/sqlrlc. MUST BE SET BEFORE 1ST CONNECT
+            and once set cannot be cleared (subsequent requests
+            to change it are ignored).
+  orastxtf: Save SQL stmt text flag. If set, then directs SQLLIB
+            to save the text of the current SQL stmt in orastxt
+            (in VARCHAR format).
+  orastxt : Saved len and text of current SQL stmt (in VARCHAR
+            format).
+  orasfnm : Saved len and text of filename containing current SQL
+            stmt (in VARCHAR format).
+  oraslnr : Saved line nr within orasfnm of current SQL stmt.
+ 
+  Cursor cache statistics. Set after COMMIT or ROLLBACK. Each
+  CONNECT'd DATABASE has its own set of statistics.
+ 
+  orahoc  : Highest Max Open OraCursors requested. Highest value
+            for MAXOPENCURSORS by any CONNECT to this DATABASE.
+  oramoc  : Max Open OraCursors required. Specifies the max nr
+            of OraCursors required to run this pgm. Can be higher
+            than orahoc if working set (MAXOPENCURSORS) was set
+            too low, thus forcing the PCC to expand the cache.
+  oracoc  : Current nr of OraCursors used.
+  oranor  : Nr of OraCursor cache reassignments. Can show the
+            degree of "thrashing" in the cache. Optimally, this
+            nr should be kept as low as possible (time vs space
+            optimization).
+  oranpr  : Nr of SQL stmt "parses".
+  oranex  : Nr of SQL stmt "executes". Optimally, the relation-
+            ship of oranex to oranpr should be kept as high as
+            possible.
+ 
+ 
+  If the symbol ORACA_NONE is defined, then there will be no ORACA
+  *variable*, although there will still be a struct defined.  This
+  macro should not normally be defined in application code.
+
+  If the symbol ORACA_INIT is defined, then the ORACA will be
+  statically initialized. Although this is not necessary in order
+  to use the ORACA, it is a good pgming practice not to have
+  unitialized variables. However, some C compilers/OS's don't
+  allow automatic variables to be init'd in this manner. Therefore,
+  if you are INCLUDE'ing the ORACA in a place where it would be
+  an automatic AND your C compiler/OS doesn't allow this style
+  of initialization, then ORACA_INIT should be left undefined --
+  all others can define ORACA_INIT if they wish.

+  NAME
+    ORI - OCI navigational interface
+
+  DESCRIPTION
+
+    This section is intended to give a brief introduction to the navigational
+    interfaces.  Readers can refer to the documents listed in the section 
+    'RELATED DOCUMENTS' for more information. 
+
+    PURPOSE 
+       The Oracle Call Interface (OCI) supports navigational access of objects.
+       In the navigational paradigm, data is represented as a graph of objects 
+       connected by references.  Objects in the graph are reached by following
+       the references.
+
+    OBJECT ENVIRONMENT
+
+      The object environment is initialized when the OCI environment handle is
+      initialized with the object option.  An object environment contains a
+      heap which buffers type instances in memory.  The object environment also
+      contains an object cache which keeps track of the objects in the object 
+      environment.  Readers can refer to the "Functional Specification for 
+      Programmatic Interface" for more information about the object 
+      environment. 
+
+    INSTANCE, OBJECT AND VALUE
+
+      An OTS instance is an occurence of a type specified by the Oracle Type 
+      System (OTS). This section describes how an OTS instance can be 
+      represented in OCI. In OCI, an OTS instance can be classified based on
+      the type, the lifetime and referencability (see the figure below):
+
+      1) A persistent object is an instance of an object type. A persistent
+         object resides in a row of a table in the server and can exist longer
+         than the duration of a session (connection). Persistent objects can be
+         identified by object references which contain the object identifiers.
+         A persistent object is obtained by pinning its object reference.
+
+      2) A transient object is an instance of an object type. A transient 
+         object cannot exist longer than the duration of a session, and it is 
+         used to contain temporary computing results. Transient objects can 
+         also be identified by references which contain transient object
+         identifiers.
+
+      3) A value is an instance of an user-defined type (object type or 
+         collection type) or any built-in OTS type.  Unlike objects, values of 
+         object types are identified by memory pointers, rather than by 
+         references.  
+
+         A value can be standalone or embbeded.  A standalone value is usually
+         obtained by issuing a select statement.  OCI also allows the client
+         program to select a row of object table into a value by issuing a SQL
+         statement.  Thus, a referenceable object (in the database) can be 
+         represented as a value (which cannot be identified by a reference).
+         A standalone value can also be an out-of-line attribute in an object 
+         (e.g varchar, raw) or an out-of-line element in a collection (e.g.
+         varchar, raw, object).
+      
+         An embedded value is phyiscally included in a containing instance.
+         An embedded value can be an in-line attribute in an object (e.g.
+         number, nested object) or an in-line element in a collection.
+
+         All values are considered to be transient by OCI, e.g. OCI does not
+         support automatic flushing a value to the database, and the client has
+         to explicitly execute a SQL statement to store a value into the 
+         database. For embedded values, they are flushed when their containing
+         instance are flushed.

+
+    REFERENCEABLE OBJECT, STANDALONE OBJECT, EMBEDDED OBJECT
+
+       In the reminding of this include file, the following term will be used:
+       1) The term 'object' can be generally referred to a persistent object,
+          a transient object, a standalone value of object type, or an embedded
+          value of object type.
+       2) The term 'referenceable object' refers to a persistent object or a 
+          transient object.
+       3) The term 'standalone object' refers to a persistent object, a
+          transient object or a standalone value of object type.
+       4) The term 'embedded object' referes to a embbeded value of object 
+          type.
+
+    META ATTRIBUTES 
+
+      There is a set of meta-attributes that are defined for standalone 
+      objects.  A meta-attribute can be transient or persistent. A 
+      transient meta-attribute is applicable to an instance only when it is 
+      in memory. A persistent meta-attribute can be applicable to an instance 
+      that is in the disk. 
+
+      The set of user visible meta-attributes for persistent objects are:
+      1) existent (persistent) : Does the object exist?
+      2) nullness (persistent) : Null information of the instance
+      3) locked   (persistent) : Is the object locked?
+      4) pinned    (transient) : Is the object being accessed by the client?
+      5) dirty     (transient) : Has the object been modified?
+      6) allocation duration (transient) : see below
+      7) pin duration        (transient) : see below
+
+      The set of user visible meta-attributes for transient objects are:
+      1) existent  (transient) : Does the object exist?
+      2) nullness  (transient) : Null information of the instance 
+      3) pinned    (transient) : Is the object being accessed by the client? 
+      4) dirty     (transient) : Has the object been modified?
+      4) allocation duration (transient) : see below
+      5) pin duration        (transient) : see below
+
+      The set of user visible meta-attributes for standalone values of object  
+      type or collections are:
+      1) allocation duration (transient) : see below
+      2) nullness            (transient) : Null information of the instance 
+                                           (of an object type)
+
+    NULLNESS OF AN INSTANCE 
+
+      Each standalone object is associated with a null structure which keeps 
+      the null information about the object.  A null indicates the absence of 
+      data. The null structure itself contains null indicators that represent:
+        1) atomic nullness : a null value that pertains to the whole object 
+        2) null status of the individual attribute in the object 
+
+      The layout of a null structure in memory resembles that of the object,
+      except that the null structure has additional indicators to represent 
+      the atomic nullness for each object. 
+
+      An non-existent object is different than an object that is atomically 
+      null. A atomically null object is an existing object that has no data. 
+
+    MEMORY LAYOUT OF AN OBJECT
+
+      A standalone object in memory is composed of a top level memory chunk, 
+      a null structure and optionally, a number of secondary memory chunks. 
+      For a DEPARTMENT object type,
+
+          OBJECT TYPE department
+          {
+              dep_name      varchar2(20),
+              budget        number,
+              manager       person,              /o person is an object type o/
+              employees     collection of person
+          }
+
+      Each instance of DEPARTMENT will has a top level memory chunk which
+      contains the top level attributes such as dep_name, budget, manager and
+      employees.  The attributes dep_name and employees are themselves pointers
+      to the additional memory (the secondary memory chunks). The secondary
+      memory is for the out-of-line attribute (e.g. varray).
+
+    CONSISTENCY MODEL
+
+      Each pin operation behaves like a distinct SQL select.  Thus, the object 
+      cache does not guarantee consistency for a graph of objects.  In order to
+      retrieve a consistent graph of objects, the user has to explicitly start 
+      a serializable transaction or a read-only transaction. 
+
+    DURATION
+      In OCI, a duration is used to specify 
+
+        1) the length of memory allocation of an instance 
+           When each instance is allocated, it is associate with an allocation
+           duration.  The memory occupied by the object is freed automatically 
+           at the end of its allocation duration. The allocation duration of an
+           instance cannot be changed.  
+
+        2) the length of pinning of an object
+           When each object is pinned, the client has to give a pin duration 
+           which specify the length of time that the object is intended to be
+           used.  It is an user error to specify a pin duration longer than an
+           allocation duration of the object. An object is completely unpinned 
+           at the end of its pin duration (see OCIObjectUnpin()). 
+
+      An OCI program can use the allocation duration and the pin duration to 
+      automatically free the memory of the instances:
+       1) Transient objects and values are freed at the end of the allocation
+          duration.
+       2) Persistent objects ARE freed at the end of the allocation duration.
+          Persistent objects CAN be freed at the end of the pin duration when
+          the objects are completely unpinned. The persistent objects are said
+          to be aged out. See OCIObjectUnpin() for more details.
+
+      There are 3 predefined duration: session, transaction, call.  The time 
+      spans of these durations are defined based on the programming model 
+      presented by OCI. The call duration is mapped to the transaction 
+      duration in the client-side environment. See oro.h for the macros defined
+      for these 3 durations.
+
+      A pin duration can be promoted. For example, if an object is pinned with
+      duration 1, and the object is later pinned with duration 2, the pin 
+      routine will try to find a duration that is longer or equal to the 
+      length of both duration 1 and duration 2.  The pin duration of the object
+      is set to the that duration. The object is automatically unpinned only 
+      after both duration 1 and duration 2 are terminated.

+   DESCRIPTION:
+
+        This function pins a referenceable object instance given the object
+        reference. The process of pinning serves three purposes:
+
+        1) locate an object given its reference. This is done by the object
+           cache which keeps track of the objects in the object heap.  
+
+        2) notify the object cache that an object is being in use. An object 
+           can be pinned many times. A pinned object will remain in memory 
+           until it is completely unpinned (see OCIObjectUnpin()). 
+
+        3) notify the object cache that a persistent object is being in use 
+           such that the persistent object cannot be aged out.  Since a 
+           persistent object can be loaded from the server whenever is needed, 
+           the memory utilization can be increased if a completely unpinned 
+           persistent object can be freed (aged out), even before the 
+           allocation duration is expired.  
+
+        Also see OCIObjectUnpin() for more information about unpinning.
+
+        FOR PERSISTENT OBJECTS:
+
+        When pinning a persistent object, if it is not in the cache, the object
+        will be fetched from the persistent store. The allocation duration of
+        the object is session. If the object is already in the cache, it is
+        returned to the client.  The object will be locked in the server if a 
+        lock option is specified. 
+
+        This function will return an error for a non-existent object.  
+
+        A pin option is used to specify the copy of the object that is to be 
+        retrieved: 
+
+        1) If option is OCI_PIN_ANY (pin any), if the object is already 
+           in the environment heap, return this object. Otherwise, the object 
+           is retrieved from the database.  This option is useful when the 
+           client knows that he has the exclusive access to the data in a 
+           session.
+
+        2) If option is OCI_PIN_LATEST (pin latest), if the object is 
+           not cached, it is retrieved from the database.  If the object is 
+           cached, it is refreshed with the latest version. See 
+           OCIObjectRefresh() for more information about refreshing.
+
+        3) If option is OCI_PIN_RECENT (pin recent), if the object is loaded
+           into the cache in the current transaction, the object is returned.
+           If the object is not loaded in the current transaction, the object
+           is refreshed from the server.
+
+        FOR TRANSIENT OBJECTS:
+
+        This function will return an error if the transient object has already 
+        been freed. This function does not return an error if an exclusive 
+        lock is specified in the lock option. 
+

+   DESCRIPTION:
+        This function refreshes an unmarked object with data retrieved from the
+        latest snapshot in the server. An object should be refreshed when the 
+        objects in the cache are inconsistent with the objects at 
+        the server:
+        1) When an object is flushed to the server, triggers can be fired to
+           modify more objects in the server.  The same objects (modified by 
+           the triggers) in the object cache become obsolete.
+        2) When the user issues a SQL or executes a PL/SQL procedure to modify
+           any object in the server, the same object in the cache becomes
+           obsolete.
+
+        The object that is refreshed will be 'replaced-in-place'. When an
+        object is 'replaced-in-place', the top level memory of the object will 
+        be reused so that new data can be loaded into the same memory address. 
+        The top level memory of the null structre is also reused. Unlike the
+        top level memory chunk, the secondary memory chunks may be resized and
+        reallocated.  The client should be careful when holding onto a pointer 
+        to the secondary memory chunk (e.g. assigning the address of a 
+        secondary memory to a local variable), since this pointer can become 
+        invalid after the object is refreshed.
+
+        The object state will be modified as followed after being refreshed: 
+          - existent : set to appropriate value
+          - pinned   : unchanged 
+          - allocation duration : unchanged

+          OCI_OBJECTPROP_LIFETIME 
+            This identifies whether the given object is a persistent
+            object (OCI_OBJECT_PERSISTENT) or a 
+            transient object (OCI_OBJECT_TRANSIENT) or a
+            value instance (OCI_OBJECT_VALUE).
+            'property' argument must be a pointer to a variable of 
+            type OCIObjectLifetime.
+            
+          OCI_OBJECTPROP_SCHEMA
+            This returns the schema name of the table in which the 
+            object exists. An error is returned if the given object 
+            points to a transient instance or a value. If the input 
+            buffer is not big enough to hold the schema name an error 
+            is returned, the error message will communicate the 
+            required size. Upon success, the size of the returned 
+            schema name in bytes is returned via 'size'.
+            'property' argument must be an array of type text and 'size'
+            should be set to size of array in bytes by the caller.
+
+          OCI_OBJECTPROP_TABLE
+            This returns the table name in which the object exists. An 
+            error is returned if the given object points to a 
+            transient instance or a value. If the input buffer is not 
+            big enough to hold the table name an error is returned, 
+            the error message will communicate the required size. Upon 
+            success, the size of the returned table name in bytes is 
+            returned via 'size'. 'property' argument must be an array 
+            of type text and 'size' should be set to size of array in 
+            bytes by the caller.
+            
+          OCI_OBJECTPROP_PIN_DURATION
+            This returns the pin duration of the object.
+            An error is returned if the given object points to a value 
+            instance. Valid pin durations are: OCI_DURATION_SESSION and
+            OCI_DURATION_TRANS.
+            'property' argument must be a pointer to a variable of type 
+            OCIDuration.
+            
+          OCI_OBJECTPROP_ALLOC_DURATION
+            This returns the allocation duration of the object.
+            Valid allocation durations are: OCI_DURATION_SESSION and
+            OCI_DURATION_TRANS.
+            'property' argument must be a pointer to a variable of type 
+            OCIDuration.
+            
+          OCI_OBJECTPROP_LOCK
+            This returns the lock status of the 
+            object. The possible lock status is enumerated by OCILockOpt.
+            An error is returned if the given object points to a transient
+            or value instance.
+            'property' argument must be a pointer to a variable of 
+            type OCILockOpt.
+            Note, the lock status of an object can also be retrieved by
+            calling OCIObjectIsLocked().
+
+          OCI_OBJECTPROP_MARKSTATUS
+            This returns the status flag which indicates whether the
+            object is a new object, updated object and/or deleted object.
+            The following macros can be used to test the mark status
+            flag:
+
+              OCI_OBJECT_IS_UPDATED(flag)
+              OCI_OBJECT_IS_DELETED(flag)
+              OCI_OBJECT_IS_NEW(flag)
+              OCI_OBJECT_IS_DIRTY(flag)
+
+            An object is dirty if it is a new object or marked deleted or 
+            marked updated.
+            An error is returned if the given object points to a transient
+            or value instance. 'property' argument must be of type 
+            OCIObjectMarkStatus.
+            
+          OCI_OBJECTPROP_VIEW
+            This identifies whether the specified object is a view object
+            or not. If property value returned is TRUE, it indicates the
+            object is a view otherwise it is not.
+            'property' argument must be of type boolean.
+

+   DESCRIPTION:
+        This function starts a new user duration.  A user can have multiple
+        active user durations simultaneously. The user durations do not have
+        to be nested.
+ 
+        The object subsystem predefines 3 durations :
+          1) session     - memory allocated with session duration comes from
+                           the UGA heap (OCI_DURATION_SESSION). A session 
+                           duration terminates at the end of the user session.
+          2) transaction - memory allocated with transaction duration comes
+                           from the UGA heap (OCI_DURATION_TRANS). A trans-
+                           action duration terminates at the end of the user
+                           transaction.
+          3) call        - memory allocated with call duration comes from PGA
+                           heap (OCI_DURATION_CALL). A call duration terminates
+                           at the end of the user call.
+ 
+        Each user duration has a parent duration.  A parent duration can be a
+        predefined duration or another user duration.  The relationship between
+        a user duration and its parent duration (child duration) are:
+ 
+         1) An user duration is nested within the parent duration. When its
+             parent duration terminates, the user duration will also terminate.
+         2) The memory allocated with an user duration comes from the heap of
+             its parent duration. For example, if the parent duration of an
+             user duration is call, then the memory allocated with the user
+             duration will also come from the PGA heap.
+
+        This function can be used as both part of cartridge services as well 
+        as without cartridge services.
+        The difference in the function in the case of cartridge and 
+        non-cartridge services is:
+                In case of cartridge services, as descibed above a new user
+        duration is created as a child of the "parent" duration.
+                But when used for non-cartridge purposes, when a pre-defined
+        duration is passed in as parent, it is mapped to the cache duration
+        for that connection (which is created if not already present) and 
+        the new user duration will be child of the cache duration.
+
+   RETURNS:
+        if environment handle and service handle is null or if error 
+        handle is null return OCI_INVALID_HANDLE.
+        if operation suceeds, return OCI_SUCCESS.
+        if operation fails, return OCI_ERROR.

+  NAME
+
+    ORID - Oracle Object Interface for Dynamic Data Access
+
+  DESCRIPTION
+
+    This file contains declarations for C object interface functions including
+    the dynamic object data access operations that allow callers to dynamically
+    access and manipulate objects; these operations include getting and setting
+    attributes of an object.  These dynamic object operations are for accessing
+    and manipulation objects whose types are not known at compile-time.

+                greater than i, such that OCITableExists(j) is true
+      OCITablePrev(i) - OCITable return pointer to the largest position j,
+                less than i, such that OCITableExists(j) is true

+   The generic collection is represented by the type 'OCIColl'. The following
+   operations OCIColl*() are provided on a generic collection:
+     - get current size of collection
+     - get upper bound of collection
+     - get pointer to an element given its index
+     - set element at given index (assign element)
+     - append an element 
+     - trim the given number of elements from the end of the collection
+     - collection assignment
+
+   The following iterator based scanning functions are also provided on a
+   generic collection. These functions make use of an iterator which is
+   defined to be of type OCIIter.
+
+     - create an iterator for scanning collection
+     - destroy iterator
+     - reset iterator to the beginning of collection
+     - get pointer to current element pointed by iterator
+     - get pointer to next element
+     - get pointer to previous element
+
+   The collections variable-length array (varray) and nested table
+   are sub-types of generic collection. This means that the OCIColl*() 
+   functions can also be used to manipulate varray and nested table.
+
+   The varray is represented by OCIArray type and nested table by OCITable.
+   Besides OCIColl*() functions no additional functions are provided for
+   manipulating varrays. The OCIColl*() functions are a complete set of 
+   functions to manipulate varrays.
+
+   Besides OCIColl*() functions, the following functions OCITable*() can be 
+   used to manipulate nested table. The OCITable*() functions operate on 
+   nested tables only and should not be used on a varray.
+
+     - delete an element at index i. Note that the position
+       ordinals of the remaining elements of the table is not changed by the
+       delete operation. So delete creates "holes" in the table.
+     - check if an element exists at the given index i
+     - return the smallest value of i for which exists(i) is true
+     - return the largest value of i for which exists(i) is true
+     - return pointer to the smallest position j, greater than i, such that 
+       OCITableExists(j) is true
+     - return pointer to the largest position j, less than i, such that 
+       OCITableExists(j) is true
+
+   For binding variables of type OCIColl* or OCITable* in OCI calls
+   (OCIBindByName(), OCIBindByPos() and OCIDefineByPos()) use the external

+  NAME
+
+    ORT - ORacle's external open Type interface to the open type manager (OTM)
+
+  DESCRIPTION
+
+    The open type manager interface includes dynamic type operations to
+    create, delete, update, and access types.  See the "Functional
+    Specification for Oracle Object Call Interface (Objects Project),
+    Version 1.0" for a user level description of the OTM.  For a more
+    detailed description, see the "Component Document for the Open Type
+    Manager, Version 1.0".
+
+    NOTE: MOST Of the functions in this header file are being desupported.
+          Please use the OCIDescribeAny interface as described in oci.h
+          instead.
+          The OCIType, OCITypeElem, OCITypeMethod abstract types continue
+          to be supported. The only two functions that remain to be documented
+          are OCITypeArrayByName and OCITypeArrayByRef.
+          All obsolete types/functions are marked accordingly below.
+

+  an automatic AND your C compiler/OS doesn't allow this style
+  of initialization, then SQLCA_INIT should be left undefined --
+  all others can define SQLCA_INIT if they wish.
+
+  If the symbol SQLCA_NONE is defined, then the SQLCA variable will
+  not be defined at all.  The symbol SQLCA_NONE should not be defined
+  in source modules that have embedded SQL.  However, source modules
+  that have no embedded SQL, but need to manipulate a sqlca struct
+  passed in as a parameter, can set the SQLCA_NONE symbol to avoid
+  creation of an extraneous sqlca variable.
