[Mono-list] Problem with Oracle and Mono Charset...

[Daniel Morgan]

I recently committed a fix to svn trunk HEAD for strings in 
OracleParameter to use OCIUnicodeToCharSet for Oracle data types dates, 
CLOBs, VARCHAR2/CHAR, etc...

Can you try your tests again to see if they work now?  I do not know 
French to test the changes.  :-)
