Re: [PHP4BETA] OCI8 API question

Hello all, I work for an Internet start-up named Core Technologies that is using PHP and MySQL. We are in the process of converting to Oracle. Question: There was a documented problem with the PHP3 Oracle API (as cited in "Core PHP Programming " by Leon Atkinson) that had to do with executing stored procedures. Apparently they can be executed, but the results cannot be returned. The suggested workaround was to code the procedures to write results to a temporary table, and do a subsequent read to get them. This is a severe performance penalty to pay partcularly for large databases with high volume access. Does anyone know if this problem been resolved in PHP4/OCI8? If not, who would be the right person to talk to for more information and/or assistance in getting it resolved? I actually sent e-mail to Zend but have not gotten a response as yet. I called as well, but they are on holiday at the moment (Israel Independence Day). Thanks in advance.
