Folgende Konstanten werden von dieser Erweiterung definiert und stehen nur zur Verfügung, wenn die Erweiterung entweder statisch in PHP kompiliert oder dynamisch zur Laufzeit geladen wurde.
| Constant | Description | 
|---|---|
| OCI_ASSOC | Used with oci_fetch_all() and oci_fetch_array() to get results as an associative array. | 
| OCI_BOTH | Used with oci_fetch_all() and oci_fetch_array() to get results as an array with both associative and number indices. | 
| OCI_COMMIT_ON_SUCCESS | Statement execution mode for oci_execute() call. Automatically commit changes when the statement has succeeded. | 
| OCI_CRED_EXT | Used with oci_connect() for using Oracles' External or OS authentication. | 
| OCI_DEFAULT | See OCI_NO_AUTO_COMMIT. | 
| OCI_DESCRIBE_ONLY | Statement execution mode for oci_execute(). Use this mode if you want meta data such as the column names but don't want to fetch rows from the query. | 
| OCI_EXACT_FETCH | Obsolete. Statement fetch mode. Used when the application knows in advance exactly how many rows it will be fetching. This mode turns prefetching off for Oracle release 8 or later mode. The cursor is canceled after the desired rows are fetched which may result in reduced server-side resource usage. | 
| OCI_FETCHSTATEMENT_BY_COLUMN | Default mode of oci_fetch_all(). | 
| OCI_FETCHSTATEMENT_BY_ROW | Alternative mode of oci_fetch_all(). | 
| OCI_LOB_BUFFER_FREE | Used with OCILob::flush to free buffers used. | 
| OCI_NO_AUTO_COMMIT | Statement execution mode
           for oci_execute(). The transaction is not
           automatically committed when using this mode.  For
           readability in new code, use this value instead of the
           older, equivalent OCI_DEFAULTconstant. | 
| OCI_NUM | Used with oci_fetch_all() and oci_fetch_array() to get results as an enumerated array. | 
| OCI_RETURN_LOBS | Used with oci_fetch_array() to get the data value of the LOB instead of the descriptor. | 
| OCI_RETURN_NULLS | Used with oci_fetch_array() to get empty
           array elements if the row items value is null. | 
| OCI_SEEK_CUR | Used with OCILob::seek to set the seek position. | 
| OCI_SEEK_END | Used with OCILob::seek to set the seek position. | 
| OCI_SEEK_SET | Used with OCILob::seek to set the seek position. | 
| OCI_SYSDATE | Obsolete. | 
| OCI_SYSDBA | Used with oci_connect() to connect with the SYSDBA privilege. The php.ini setting oci8.privileged_connect should be enabled to use this. | 
| OCI_SYSOPER | Used with oci_connect() to connect with the SYSOPER privilege. The php.ini setting oci8.privileged_connect should be enabled to use this. | 
| OCI_TEMP_BLOB | Used with OCILob::writeTemporary to indicate that a temporary BLOB should be created. | 
| OCI_TEMP_CLOB | Used with OCILob::writeTemporary to indicate that a temporary CLOB should be created. |

| Constant | Description | 
|---|---|
| OCI_DTYPE_FILE | This flag tells oci_new_descriptor() to initialize a new FILE descriptor. | 
| OCI_DTYPE_LOB | This flag tells oci_new_descriptor() to initialize a new LOB descriptor. | 
| OCI_DTYPE_ROWID | This flag tells oci_new_descriptor() to initialize a new ROWID descriptor. | 
| OCI_D_FILE | The same as OCI_DTYPE_FILE. | 
| OCI_D_LOB | The same as OCI_DTYPE_LOB. |

| Konstanten | Beschreibung | 
|---|---|
| OCI_FO_ABORT(int) | Failover was unsuccessful and there is no option of retrying. | 
| OCI_FO_BEGIN(int) | Failover has detected a lost connection and failover is starting. | 
| OCI_FO_END(int) | Failover completed successfully. | 
| OCI_FO_ERROR(int) | Failover was unsuccessful but it gives the application the opportunity
     to handle the error and return OCI_FO_RETRYto retry failover. | 
| OCI_FO_NONE(int) | The user has not requested a failover type. | 
| OCI_FO_REAUTH(int) | An Oracle user has been re-authenticated. | 
| OCI_FO_RETRY(int) | The failover should be attempted again by Oracle.
     In case of an error while failing over to a new
     connection, TAF is able to retry the failover.
     Typically, the application code should sleep for
     a while before returning OCI_FO_RETRY. | 
| OCI_FO_SELECT(int) | The user has requested SELECT failover as well. It allows users with open cursors to continue fetching from them after failure. | 
| OCI_FO_SESSION(int) | The user has requested only session failover. For example, if a user's connection is lost, then a new session is automatically created for the user on the backup. This type of failover does not attempt to recover SELECTs. | 
| OCI_FO_TXNAL(int) | The user has requested a transaction failover. |
