Christopher Jones continues his previous update on the status of the new OCi8 functionality for PHP in a new post mentioning the bundling up of a recent version into a standalone package.

Antony Dovgal took a snapshot of the OCI8 extension that shipped with PHP 5.2.4 and bundled it up standalone in PECL as OCI8 1.2.4. Windows binaries are here.

Fixes included in this packages DLL include:

• statement caching
• LOB functionality
• error handling methods
