// example code just has some convenient location for testing.

// An additional information about Oracle connection string available with Oracle Instant Client FAQ (<hostname>[:<port>][/<service_name>] ).
dim userID as string = ""
// A string containing a user name to use when establishing the connection. If sUserID parameter is empty, we request Oracle external authentication.
dim password as string = ""
// A string containing a password to use when establishing the connection.
// The plugin requires OCI version 7.3 or higher.
// The plugin tries to connect to Oracle using new OCI8 (Oracle 8 and higher) first.
// If it fails it tries to connect using OCI7.
// If you want to use directly OCI7 or OCI8 API you should set "UseAPI" connection
// option before specifying Oracle client or connecting to database.

// Disconnect is optional
// autodisconnect will occur in destructor if needed
