Where can I find the listing of ODP to CLR type mapping? On Oracle database, the NUMBER(9,0) type comes out in .NET app as System.Decimal from the MS Oracle driver, but as System.Int32 from ODP driver. I need an exact specification of types coming out from database (not the CLR to DB parameter mapping).
Run this simple test to get mappings for SqlServer and Oracle (both MS and ODP.NET drivers):
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Data;
using System.Data.SqlClient;

using Oracle.DataAccess.Client;

{

private static string SqlServerConnectionString = @"";
private static string OracleConnectionString = @"";
private static void WriteHeader(string title)
{
Console.WriteLine("----------------------------------------------------------");
Console.WriteLine("-- {0}", title);
Console.WriteLine("----------------------------------------------------------");
}
private static void WriteRow(string key, string value)
{
Console.WriteLine("{0}\t\t{1}", key.PadRight(30, ' '), value);
}
private static void EnumerateTypes(IDbConnection connection, string template, IEnumerable<string> types)
{
EnumerateTypes(connection, template, types, (arg1, arg2) => { });
}
private static void EnumerateTypes(IDbConnection connection, string template, IEnumerable<string> types, Action<string, string> action)
{
connection.Open();
using (var command = connection.CreateCommand())
{
foreach (var type in types)
{
var value = "";
command.CommandText = string.Format(template, type);
try
{
using (var reader = command.ExecuteReader())
{
if (reader.Read())
value = reader[0].GetType().FullName;
else
value = "<no data read>";
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
value = ex.Message;
}
WriteRow(type, value);
action(type, value);
}
}

Stefan, I had the same question myself.
You may find the answer here, in the installed DevArt DotConnect for Oracle Help documentation: ms-help://Devart.Data.Oracle/dcOracle/DataTypeMapping.html
You may want to browse online, in DevArt's website to find the same info: http://www.devart.com/dotconnect/oracle/docs/DataTypeMapping.html
Both are under the chapter entitled, "Entity Framework Data Type Mapping".
