#10224 closed (fixed)

Oracle backend: raw binary field breaks

Description

Support for raw binary Oracle can be useful when interfacing django with an existing database.
In db/backends/oracle/base.py such field wrongly falls back to unicode decode.
See attachment for a possible simple fix (the decoding of the binary data is then left to the application, possibly using binascii.b2a_hex).
