[Zope] How do I use a Z Oracle Connection in a script?

[J. Cone]

Hello Dieter,

Please cancel the question below.  I decided I was having the same problem
as Jeff Hotz ([Zope] Python Script Permission Problem) and to adopt the
same solution.  I have extended my pluggable brain and made it go.  The
relevant code is:

  def saveProfile(self, dbase, profile):
    csr = dbase.cursor
    csr.execute("update fred set profile = :prof "
                "where id = :id",
                prof=Binary(profile),# Binary here prevents truncation
                id = self.id);
    dbase._finish()

  <dtml-call "saveProfile(Oracle_database_connection(), newProfile)">

Thanks for your help,
J. Cone.
