This is the header of the cadabra source file.
;;;; The original version of this code was copyright (c) 1999-2000 Cadabra Inc.
;;;; It was placed in the public domain by Cadabra in January 2000.
;;;;
;;;; The implementors of the original version were Winton Davies
;;;; <wdavies@cadabra.com> and William Newman <william.newman@airmail.net>.
;;;; known issues:
;;;; * The code will leak C resources if errors occur in the the wrong
;;;; places, since it doesn't wrap its allocation/deallocation
;;;; logic in the necessary EVAL-WHENs to prevent this. (This could be
;;;; easily be an issue for long-running processes which recover from
;;;; database errors instead of simply terminating when they occur. It's
;;;; not an issue for programs which consider database errors so abnormal
;;;; that they die immediately when they encounter one.)
;;;; * Instead of reading Oracle header files automatically, this code
;;;; uses constants, types, and function signatures manually transcribed
;;;; from the Oracle header files. Thus, changes in the header files
;;;; may require manual maintenance of the code. (This version was written
;;;; for Oracle 8.1.5.)
