Changes from 4.4.1 to 5.0
1) Added support for Python 3.0 with much help from Amaury Forgeot d'Arc.
2) Removed support for Python 2.3 and Oracle 8i.
3) Added support for full unicode mode in Python 2.x where all strings are
passed in and returned as unicode (module must be built in this mode)
rather than encoded strings
4) nchar and nvarchar columns now return unicode instead of encoded strings
5) Added support for an output type handler and/or an input type handler to be
specified at the connection and cursor levels.
6) Added support for specifying both input and output converters for variables
7) Added support for specifying the array size of variables that are created
using the cursor.var() method
8) Added support for events mode and database resident connection pooling
(DRCP) in Oracle 11g.
9) Added support for changing the password during construction of a new
connection object as well as after the connection object has been created
10) Added support for the interval day to second data type in Oracle,
represented as datetime.timedelta objects in Python.
11) Added support for getting and setting the current_schema attribute for a
session
12) Added support for proxy authentication in session pools as requested by
Michael Wegrzynek (and thanks for the initial patch as well).
13) Modified connection.prepare() to return a boolean indicating if a
transaction was actually prepared in order to avoid the error ORA-24756
(transaction does not exist).
14) Raise a cx_Oracle.Error instance rather than a string for column
truncation errors as requested by Helge Tesdal.
15) Fixed handling of environment handles in session pools in order to allow
session pools to fetch objects without exceptions taking place.
