What is Reddit's opinion of dotConnect?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

I don't know if the Oracle client includes ODBC.

I always do a custom install and then select SQL*Net, Oracle utilities and ODBC.

If you are using dotConnect for Oracle , I usually install the Oracle ODAC

It never takes more than a few minutes to get the Oracle client working on desktops or servers, although I have been supporting Oracle a few decades.

I have seen people try and install the Oracle client multiple times which leaves registry keys pointing to old Oracle Home directories.

I usually manually remove the Oracle software and the Oracle registry keys and then do a clean Oracle client install.

Removing Oracle Database Client Software

32 bit computer [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE]

32 bit oracle installed on 64 bit computer [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ORACLE]

These guys make one: https://www.devart.com/dotconnect/entityframework.html.

It's not free but not prohibitively expensive either.

I've used them back in the EF non-Core days and their support was top notch.

I found the solution,

Use Devart.Data.Oracle.EFCore Nugget package version 9.6.659

and follow this tutorial https://www.devart.com/dotconnect/oracle/docs/EFCore-Database-First-NET-Core.html

Thank you everyone
