OWB 9.2.0.4 Patchset Now
Available
Mark Van De Wiel has advised
that the 9.2.0.4 patchset
for Oracle Warehouse Builder
9.2 is now available on
MOSC, using patch ID
3443542.
The patch is currently
available for Windows and
Solaris, with patches for
Linux, HP-UX, AIX and Tru-64
expected within the next
month.
The patchset addresses bugs
and issues with the 9.2
release, and the resultant
upgraded 9.2.0.4 version of
OWB is the version that the
10g release will be based
on.
According to Mark, the
10g version of OWB will be
released around one week
after the Windows version of
Oracle 10g Database, and the
only difference between OWB
10g and OWB 9.2.0.4 will be
the support for Oracle
Database 10g as a source and
target. The delay in the
release of OWB10g is due to
Oracle's desire to wait
until Oracle Database 10g is
released on Windows, as this
is the primary development
platform for OWB users.
The patch needs to be
applied to both client and
server, and is platform
independent; i.e. the same
patch is supplied for both
Windows and Unix.
When OWB 10g comes out,
it'll be included into the
10g Developer Suite bundle
(it's currently missing from
the developer preview
version), with the server
side elements eventually
being
bundled in by default
with the 10g Database
install.
