All,

I've done database development using embedded SQL in C++ connecting to mSQL and MySQL servers. This required a header file and linking in a library so that my application had access to the database calls.

Is there a similar capability in Oracle, that is, will I be able to use embedded SQL from within C++ to query a server? I went through some of the online docs, but had a tough time finding this explicitly stated.

If not, what is the preferred way to connect? Is there a better way? We're planning on a C++ application in Solaris or Linux, the Oracle server will be running on either a Solaris x86 or Sparc.

Thanks for the info,
