Oracle instant client for Windows x64 (the download size makes it... not
so instant though)

It's called "instant" client, because it does not need any installation
compared to the "usual" client.
I know, don't get me started on ORACLE_HOME etc...
Do you know why it's not compiled on Win64?
Do you want the reason why it's not compiled in the view of fpmake (a)
or in a technical view (b)?
(a) No wonder as the OS list for Oracle is
"SqldbConnectionOSes-SqldbWithoutPosgresOSes"
(b) Maybe nobody needed it yet. I myself might be the first one at all
who wanted to interface with Oracle on Windows directly without ODBC. ;)
Note: I had yet no real success with the Oracle connection on Windows
(32 Bit). I'm still investigating the exact reasons, so I can report
approbiate bugs (one reason seems to be that the calling convention in
the oracle interface unit is wrong).
Can't remember whether I've tried running it at all... But since it has
been committed surely it must have been working for at least some people!??!
Maybe it was only really tested on Linux...
Regards,
Sven
