You're missing `.api` here, just like belowimport com.typesafe.slick.driver.oracle.OracleDriver._
//import slick.driver.MySQLDriver.api._
Switching between different database types is done the easiest by using DatabaseConfig, as shown in http://www.typesafe.com/activator/template/slick-multidb-3.1.If there is a major shift then this would be a major concern as my application would be talking to Oracle for sometime and post that would be talking to PostGres. I would not like to make any major changes in application then due to this migration.
