Publisher’s description

Oracle 10g Instant Client is the easiest way for PHP to connect to a remote Oracle database, requiring installation of only three libraries. The Instant Client libraries used by PHP access Oracle's current API, called OCI8. PHP Oracle 8 Functions can call Oracle 8.1.7, 9.x, or 10.x directly, or optional abstraction classes like PEAR MDB2 and ADOdb can be used for convenience. The older PHP "Oracle" extension can also be used with Instant Client but it calls a deprecated Oracle API. To use Instant Client with PHP 4 or 5 on Apache, follow the steps given in this paper.
