Datatype Mapping Rules for Sybase to Oracle

Datatype Mapping Rules for Sybase to Oracle: "Datatype Mapping Rules for Sybase to Oracle

The conversion of datatypes from Sybase to Oracle needs to be addressed in three steps. The first step is deciding which physical datatypes in Sybase map to which physical datatypes in Oracle, maintaining the same or greater precision. The second step is to lay out which Uniface datatype and packing codes currently are being used to generate the existing Sybase physical datatypes in existing Uniface applications. And then lastly decide if some Uniface datatype and packing codes must change to generate a physical type under Oracle that more closely matches the Sybase to Oracle datatype map from step one"
