Ruby-oci8 2.1.3 is released. This is the Oracle module using OCI8 API.

 http://rubyforge.org/projects/ruby-oci8/

New Features
------------

### {OCI8::Cursor#statement}

It returns the text of the SQL statement prepared in the cursor.

    cursor = conn.parse("select * from country where country_code = 'ja'")
    cursor.statement # => "select * from country where country_code = 'ja'"

See: [github issue #16](https://github.com/kubo/ruby-oci8/issues/16)

Specification changes
---------------------

### License was changed to 2-clause BSD-style license.

The former license was same with old ruby (<= 1.9.2) license.

### Oracle object type's DATE field type

Ruby-oci8 had returned a DateTime object when Oracle object type's DATE
field type was accessed. Now it returns a Time object.

Fixed Issues
------------

-   Fix to work with procedures and functions that return temporary lobs.

    See: [github issue #20](https://github.com/kubo/ruby-oci8/issues/20)

accessed.
