Why Oracle Names have been discontinued in Oracle 10g

Hello,
I wanted to know why Oracle Names is not supported in Oracle 10g? Desupporting Oracle Names in future releases on Oracle is a big decision, as most of the sites still use Oracle 8i for legacy applications, which does not support OID. Translation tunnel between Oracle 8i ONAMES and Oracle 10g OID can be used... but what is the reason for not supportin ONAMES in Oracle 10g?
Regards
Sudhanshu

ONames is an obsolete technology. I suspect Oracle wanted to eliminate the need to support a code line that has an obvious replacement.
Those customers who still use Oracle8i obviously don't care about being supported by Oracle. Anyone who has a useable support contract will likely have upgraded, especially since Oracle gave lots of warning about desupporting Oracle8i, and even extended the desupport date.
Besides, there really is no conflict - use ONames for the unsupported legacy systems and OiD for the new systems. Or ... use the Oracle9i ONames & Oracle9i client against an Oracle 10g environment.

  • Getting an error that the iMessage cannot be initialized - why now, I have been using it for the last 3 years?

    I cannot send iMessages anymore (have been able to do so for the last 3 years) and when I go Settings / Messages / the iMessage is OFF so when I turn it on it returns an error saying that iMessage cannot be initialized and that I should sign on with my Apple ID, which I did, but it still gives me the error.
    Why is this happening and what can be done?

    It won't be anything to do with Acrobat.
    It may well be something with whatever created the PDF, the settings in whatever made the PDF, etc.
    Does this happen with every PDF that you do not recreate by printing to PDF (I presume from Acrobat)?
    If this is limited to particular PDFs from a particular application and the creator of the PDF is not an Adobe product, what created them?
    If it is just some PDFs, can you upload one to dropbox.com and provide a link to it?

  • Can anyone explain why my posts have been removed???

    It seems that for some reason my posts from yesterday have been removed. I can't imagine why that would happen, I didn't breach any code of conduct, and my topics were inline with the general theme of the forums.
    If anyone could explain this to me I would be really appreciative.

    Or it could be that because you have won theobviously
    off-topic What Am I? that you have been
    categorized as an off-topic poster and all yourposts
    will be watched with a finger on the deletebutton..
    our administrators have been most diligent inremoving

  • Why Oracle 10g is called so?

    Why is it not Oracle 10i? What is the difference between Oracle 9i and Oracle 10g?
    What for i and g stands?

    The i first appeared at Designer release 6i and was added to state that this version was "internet enabled". The first version which fully supported a three tier approach (database, application server, web browser). The i lasted up until version 10g in which the g stands for "grid". This version is grid enabled.

  • Are there any good basic/feature phones that have been discontinued?

    My brother currently has the Samsung Intensity II and it's giving him a lot of problems. After troubleshooting with tech support it is best for him to replace the phone. The insurance deductible is $45 but the phone will likely be refurbished. I am seeking a non-smartphone for him that I can purchase via eBay or Craigslist. Because he is 16, he wants some type of smartphone. Preferably the iPhone or a low/mid-grade Android phone. I won't allow him to get a smartphone until he gets a job and pays for the phone and monthly data plan.
    I am sort of disappointed in the selection of basic phones on the Verizon website - there are only 7 phones under $100. It seems backwards that there are 23 smartphones under $100. The conspiracy theorist in me would think this is a ploy to coax customers to move towards smartphones but I digress. I have been looking at the Samsung Brightside and the ZTE Adamant (discontinued - not offered on vzw.com) and they seem pretty cool and reasonably priced on eBay. Are there any other basic or feature phones that you would recommend [including discontinued and upcoming phones]?
    I would rather not purchase a phone directly through Verizon so that it does not extend the contract or interfere with his upgrade date (to ensure that he will be able to afford the phone of his choice when he is ready).

    Another vote for the Env3 - son and daughter both had them (18 and 21) and they were more than adequate phones and worked well for them.  My son (now nearing 24) is still using his though he is eligible for an upgrade now - he likes it and sees no reason to change until it quits on him.
    The Alias (original) was a good phone for my daughter before her Env3, and I really enjoyed my LG Voyager, touchscreen.  None of the phones require a data plan, if you can find them.

    Where do you backup your contacts?
    If to iCloud, is there another device sharing your Apple iCloud ID? If there is, anything done to contacts by the other device will be synced to your iPhone contacts.  The same is true of anything done to contacts by a computer on icloud.com.  Go to icloud.com and check to see if your contacts are still there.
    If you back them up  to a computer through iTunes, then you can recover your contacts by re-syncing them from your computer to your iPhone.

  • My Photoshop Elements moved my pix from iPhoto but the picture names have been lost???

    I installed  a copy of Photoshop Elements 12 yesterday.  I had been using iPhoto and had literally hundreds of pictures, each with an aphpa-numeric names.  I imported the photos from IPhoto into Elements 12, but there are no longer identifying names on any picture.   Where are the names?  There is a column of numeric file names in [Organizer] along  the left sides - which mean nothing to me.  I have tried every button I could find and searched the Photoshop Elements for Dummies for a possible solution.  I asked two friends familiar with full blown Photoshop and they are perplexed.  So am I.  Has anybody any useful suggestions?  Thank you

    If you used the "from iPhoto" command, you made duplicates of your iphoto library photos. Just delete them and then decide how you want to proceed. "From iPhoto" is to be used if you decide you want to use the elements organizer exclusively and not iphoto anymore, but you don't have to do that. You can make a small test catalog with just some photos from iphoto, or you can set up PSE as your external editor from iphoto, or you can export photos from iphoto to the desktop, edit them in PSE and then reimport them back to iphoto as new images.
    Which would you like to try?

  • My contact names have been replaced with their phone numbers. How do I change their numbers back to their names?

    Hi,
    I just returned from an international trip yesterday. I noticed that all my i cloud contacts were erased when I arrived in England. I am very certain that they were all working fine on my phone before I left for the trip. When I go into my messages, only the phone numbers of my contacts exist, not the names of the people. I'm guessing this problem was caused by travelling overseas. How do I get my contacts back. Someone please help!

    This happened to me too, and my pictures dissapeared.  If you click the number, a drop down menu will appear and you can choose add to exisitig or create new contact. 50% of the time I am able to see the contact in my list the other %50 I have to create a new contact. When you do either of these the name will show versus the number. I think this is a bug with the latest update.

  • How do i get itunes to accept my debit card. When i fist made my account everything was fine but after a few purchases it was declined, i have money in my account so i do not know why it would have been declined. My bankacount says it should go through?

    I set up everything with no problems the first time. I have money in my account and i made a few purchases though the app store, then all the sudden it says my card is declined... but i havemoney in my account, it makes me try to change my billing informaton. I contacted my bank and they said there is no reason that my card should be getting declined. I cannot download anything, or update the downloads that i already have... this is so fusturating, any ideas to fix this.

    This was changed. Apple no longer accepts debit cards as an acceptable form of payment. This Apple support page lists all accepted forms of payment.

    Windows 7 includes DirectX 11 in its baseline and it is not necessary to install another version of it.  Your problems may be caused by the installation of the version of DirectX you installed.  Uninstall the one you installed and see if you
    still have the errors.

    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications (including Safari) first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
    After installing Flash Player, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’. If you are running 10.6.8 or later:
    When you have installed the latest version of Flash, relaunch Safari and test.
    If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then in System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser, but check this also:
