In general, on Windows, it's best to just use ActiveState Perl and the
PPM package manager to install a pre-built version of DBD::Oracle.
PPM package manager to install a pre-built version of DBD::Oracle however only version 1.17 is available there.

If you built Perl with gcc, read README.wingcc.txt as well as this file.


Oracle Instant Client 11.1.0.6.0 Notes

So far I have managed to get it to Makefile and compile test and install and work. However it seems one needs to set "NLS_LANG" to a valid value
in the environment variables.

As well IC 11 seems to have trouble finding the .ORA files. A quick fix for this is to add "TNS_ADMIN"
to the environment variables and point it to where your .ORA files are.
