Did you meet any problems when using Ruby-Oci8?
Or do you expect any new functions/enhancements regarding Ruby-Oci8?

Ruby/OCI8 is one of my favorite Ruby libraries. Very nice.
The only thing I have occasionally wanted is better support for
URL-style connect strings, rather than needing Net8/TNS-style entries.
There are connect strings supported by the InstantClient that OCI8
cannot handle.
Someone at Oracle should help out with that hint hint.

Yes, please.

Can you give us an example of the URL you prefer best? For instance, if
the connect string is “hr/[email protected]:1521/orcl”, what is the
URL-style connect string you expect for it?

Just what you’ve written there would be fine by me.
To my knowledge, ruby/oci8 does not allow that syntax.
