[cx-oracle-users] Lightweight/built-in Oracle client

[Aaron H. <ne...@gm...>]

Hello All,

Using cx_Oracle, I'm trying to establish a connection to a remote database.
I tried to deploy my tool on a terminal without any kind of Oracle client
software. While I run Oracle client software on my machine, I'd prefer to
not have to deploy Oracle client on any terminal wishing to use this tool.
As I read through the mailing list, a similar question was posed, but I
don't know if a client solution was ever included into cx_Oracle

  I can definitely add something like that to the setup.py that comes
 with cx_Oracle. If anyone on this list has done the same thing with
  Windows and Cygwin I'd like to know the changes needed for those
 platforms.


The other proposed solution included using the OIC. If cx_Oracle has no
alternative, I'll make use of this, but I just wanted to see if anyone had a
brighter idea. I am using a w32 environment, connecting to Oracle 9i DB

Thank you,
Aaron H.
