I've started a couple of threads on this forum recently trying to figure out similar problems and currently compiling GDAL 1.9.2 from source on Windows looks like my best option - but STILL I'm getting nowhere. I can't believe how much time this is taking!
I've set up my nmake.opt file with everything it needs for OCI: # Add ORACLE support. # Uncomment the following line to enable OCI Oracle Spatial support. ORACLE_HOME = C:\app\mirawan\product\11.2.0 # Uncomment the following if you prefer to build OCI support as a plugin. # OCI_PLUGIN = YES !IFDEF ORACLE_HOME OCI_LIB = $(ORACLE_HOME)\client_1\sdk\lib\msvc\oci.lib OCI_INCLUDE = -I$(ORACLE_HOME)\client_1\sdk\include !ENDIF I've verified several times that the relevant files are where I think they are. I can compile and install with nmake /f makefile.vc and nmake /f makefile.vc install with no trouble. No error messages related to OCI are reported in the build output, even in debug mode (nmake /f makefile.vc DEBUG=1). However when I try to open an OCI data source I just see 'Unable to open datasource ... with the following drivers'. I also tried adding OCI support as a plugin but this was even more frustrating - I followed the steps here <http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/BuildingOnWindows> to compile plugins and nmake ran without any error but apparently nothing changed. TBH I don't even know if I'm looking at the correct plugin - I assume I want georaster for all Oracle support but I can't find any useful documentation on the relationship between georaster and OCI. I am pretty much at the point of putting through my screen in anger. Can anyone give me any idea what's going on here, or a better way of figuring out what the problem might be? Even better - can anyone suggest an automated way of exporting Oracle data to File GeoDatabase that doesn't involve GDAL or FME?
