different between OCIPlogon and ora_logon

[alexnico]

Hello everybody, what is the different between these functions:

OCIPLogon(username, password, [database]) and
ora_logon(username@database, password).

I found these functions to connect to Oracle database, but where is the different?

Thank you!
