I have installed, Windows 2003 R2 plus SUA, but I can not find anything in SUA related to OCI or ODBC?
How do I go about compiling a C program that is using Oracle Call Interface on SUA?
Do I need to install Oracle on this?
Failing that, how do I go about compiling a program on SUA that uses ODBC to interface with SQL server?
Do I need to install one of the freeware ODBC packages on SUA?
Based on the Microsoft 'Whats new in 2003 R2' I had the impression the SUA woudl already include the ODBC and/or OCI headers and libraries for Client applications. Was I wrong here?
If anyone can help direct me to the right solution that woudl be great.
Thanks

The OCI connection is done to the Win32 API's (rather than Interix API's).
This happens by using the "mixed mode" compilation/linking method.
You do not need any of the stuff from /Tools.
You should find a README detailing how to created a mixed mode compile with the
downloaded Utilities and Libraries package from Microsoft.

Thanks for the information. I think I am getting closer to the answers I need.
I searched for all README files and could not find anything about mixed mode compiles.
The help information for cc & c89 talks about -N nostdc and makes a reference to ODBC. This is only place it talks about this.
I was compiling my code with gcc, but it sounds like I will need to switch to cc as I have a lot of Unix/Linux style C code but in this environment I want to link this with some native Windows object code.
If you can point me to some example of compiling in mixed mode that would be great.
Thanks

For mixed mode you should use cc/c89, but I believe that it can be done with gcc too.
There's a special flag to use.
I know the README is around somewhere... I'll have to take a look for it.

Ah, there it is.
It's called "Help_and_Releasenotes.doc" in the "Doc" sub-directory for wherever
you extracted the Utility and Libarary download for SUA/5.2 from the zip file.
