Our SW includes component that uses ODP.NET, we upgraded ODP.NET to 18c to benefit from the new OracleCredential class.

Problem: According to the Oracle.NET team, ODP.NET 18c would support only 18c clients, yet, we still need to support other Oracle client versions, 12.1 for example.
Are there any patches to ODP.NET versions earlier than 18c which includes the new OracleCredential class?

I spoke to the Product Managers for this:

"OracleCredential class was added to the latest 11.2.0.4 bundle patch. As you've seenit's part of 18c. We plan to add it to the latest 12.1 and 12.2 patches."

Hope this helps.
