OTL 4.0, Example 59 (Using OTL/OCI8 in Pro*C/C++ environment)

Example 59 (Using OTL/OCI8 in Pro*C/C++ environment)

This example demonstrates how to use OTL/OCI8 classes in the Pro*C/C++ environment (or in any other third-party library, based on OCI8). The assumption is that the primary connection is made in Pro*C/C++ and the OTL connect object gets attached to that primary connection.
