Does ODP.NET require Oracle Client installation?

The latest ODAC releases ship with Oracle instant client so you don't need to install the full client.

The latest ODAC releases ship with Oracle instant client so you don't need to install the full client. (32 bit release) (64 bit release).

The ODP. NET does require native OCI DLLs (~130 MB). Probably the easiest way to get all the necessary files is to download the "Oracle Data Access Components with XCopy deployment" from oracle.com.

For your reference, the following DLLs are used by ODP. NET at run-time: oci. Dll Oracle.DataAccess.

Dll (the managed ODP. NET assembly itself) orannzsbb11. Dll oraociei11.

Dll OraOps11w. Dll BTW, you'll need to be careful whether you are using 32-bit or 64-bit native Oracle DLLs - you must match them with the "bitness" of your managed code. This is especially tricky if you are building for "Any CPU" so the bitness is not fixed.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
