Hello all,

Is possible to use oci.dll without installing oracle client?

Of is, what files and setting need to be done?

I need for windows xp platform.

Thanks in advance,
Ion Lupascu (tojocky)

I found the solution!

It is possible to copy the files: oci.dll, ociw32.dll (in case if you use oracle7 or explicit set oci.dll/so libname) and oraociei10.dll.

In u++ first of all need to set library path explicit by using the method: OCI8SetDllPath(<full oci.dll/so address path>)
or OCI7SetDllPath(<full oci.dll/so address path>) if you use oracle7.

Not needed if they are in the same dir as .exe.

You also need tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora config files in the same dir as .dlls.
