[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-514) getDatabaseMajorVersion unsupported by some Oracle drivers

[David Lee Lambert (JIRA)]

    [ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-514?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=39827#action_39827 ] 

David Lee Lambert commented on HHH-514:
---------------------------------------

Bug still present in hibernate 3.6 ... I just ran into it.  I have the Oracle 10g driver lying around here somewhere,  but it's still annoying.  Shouldn't there be some way to catch this exception and fall back to the "9i" behavior?
