Currently, Oracle database driver expects
db_name
parameter for Oracle system identifier (SID) anddb_host
for host name, and both of them are mandatory.This PR may make
db_name
parameter allow net service name or (easy) connection identifier along with SID, such as:In cases above
db_host
anddb_port
parameters are not necessary.Note: To specify net service name or connection identifier, DBD-Oracle 1.70 or better is required: See CPAN RT #91775 for details.My misunderstanding.
