RE: What is OCI. What are its uses?
The Oracle Call Interface (OCI) is a set of low-level APIs (Application Programming Interface Calls) used to interact with Oracle databases. It allows one to use operations like logon execute parse fetch etc. OCI programs are normally written in C or C++ although they can be written in almost any programing language.


Unlike with the Oracle Precompilers (like Pro*C and Pro*COBOL) OCI programs are not precompiled.
