This property specifies the Oracle data type.

Declaration

// C#
public OracleDbType OracleDbType { get; set; }

Property Value

An OracleDbType enumerated value.

Remarks

Default = OracleDbType.Varchar2

If the OracleParameter object is used for Array Bind or PL/SQL Associative Array Bind execution, OracleDbType is the data type of each element in the array.

The OracleDbType property and DbType property are linked. Therefore, setting the OracleDbType property changes the DbType property to a supporting DbType.
