Pro*C vs. Oracle Call Interface...

Hello, world.

  I've been writing C/Oracle programs under a very old version of Oracle for DOS (around 5.1, I think), and I found the Oracle Call Interface routines *much* easier to use than the Pro*C preprocessor, so that's what I've been using. Now, though, I've moved to v6 under Unix, and I find that the OCI routines are no longer documented in the Pro*C manual (although they are still in the library and my programs still work).
  My questions are, should I change my programs to use Pro*C? Should I write future programs using Pro*C instead of OCI? Does anybody else prefer OCI to Pro*C?

Thanks,
dave
