If you use BCB Pro and Oracle ODBC, you will be unhappy with performance and
the lack of support for all BDE component properties.

However, the BDE comes with native Oracle driver support. This requires the
Enterprise version of C++ Builder, and the Oracle client software. This
provides a stable and efficient driver interface through the BDE. It's also
a breeze to configure your connections.

While our ADO implementation supports Oracle very well, it is not as
full-featured as the BDE with native driver support. This is due to the fact
that ADO is (primarily) targeted at MSSQL and Access, and its reliance on
Oracle OLEDB. Example: trying to retrieve schema metadata for an Oracle
table, or other system data, can be problematic. Also notice that in-place
editors for SQL may not work with all Oracle databases.
