After you download and compile the library... follow these steps:

I have the opportunity to test out OCI vs Pro*C and to my surprise Pro*C (Oracle 10g) has advanced so much that the timing I get is very very CLOSE to OCI. For most cases, Pro*C should suffice and it is much easier to code and debug. My few cents worth of opinion :)
