GnuCash Oracle File Format

[David T.]

Jon--

Welcome to GnuCash. 


If you install the appropriate database drivers, yes, you may save in one of the approved database formats. However, there is little to be gained by this at this time. 


And the only way you'll be able to use Oracle would be if you were to write the driver for it.

Cheers,
David

Subject: GnuCash Oracle File Format
 
Hi, I'm a newbie to GnuCash, running v 2.4.7 on Fedora 14. I'm working
through the online doco, and have successfully created an XML file for my
chosen accounts. 

When choosing option File -> Save As..., XML was the only available option
for my GnuCash file. If I had SQLite3, mySQL or PostgreSQL installed on my
F14 box (none presently are), presumably I could have chosen one of these
database file options instead of XML. Is that understanding correct, and if
so, would GnuCash go on to create the database, or would I need to first
create the database before nominating it as the GnuCash file object?

My preferred GnuCash file option is to use an Oracle database. Is there any
way of using Oracle instead of SQLite2, mySQL or PostgreSQL for this
purpose? 

TIA,
  Jon
