I convert Sybase applications to Oracle and I convert Oracle
applications to Sybase depending on what the client wants. It is not
that great of a problem. The DDLs are quite similar except that I have
to do some emulation for certain datatypes. The hard part is
conversion of functions, stored procedures and packages which I
usually have to rewrite. The application in question will take me a
little over a week to modify which is a lot less time than waiting a
few months or whatever for Oracle to come up with a certified release.
The customer wanted it a couple weeks ago and he wanted it on a Linux
box! The right way, the wrong way and the customer way.
