cx_oracle fails because of "b" in version string

[zak k]

6.0b1 causes a ValueError near line 706 in sqlalchemy\dialects\oracle\cx_oracle.py

    if hasattr(self.dbapi, 'version'):
        verlist = list()
        for version_part in self.dbapi.version.split('.'):
            version_part = version_part.split('b')[0]
            verlist.append(int(version_part))
        self.cx_oracle_ver = tuple(verlist)
    else:
        self.cx_oracle_ver = (0, 0, 0)

was my fix for this but you may have a better way

ok

Use regexp to parse cx_oracle version string

Fixed bug in cx_Oracle dialect where version string parsing would fail for cx_Oracle version 6.0b1 due to the "b" character. Version string parsing is now via a regexp rather than a simple split.

This problem still happens on 1.1.9 version. When this fix will be available on a stable release?
