DBI::Row.column_names & case

[lede...@gmail.com]

Hello,

There is difference in Oracle and Posgtres in the case of
column_names values. Column names are uppercase in Oracle and lowercase
in Postgres. It is not a good thing that I (a next level food chain
developer) have to think about the case when accessing columns. It
should be either standartized on low/upper case or transparently
compared with the values of COL_NAME as in row['COL_NAME'], IMHO.

PS. as an Oracle ruby dbi library I use oci8.
