Installing Pro*C
Install freecommandlinetools.exe FREE Borland C compiler.

bcc32.cfg
-I"c:\Borland\bcc55\Include"
-L"c:\Borland\bcc55\Lib"
-L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/rdbms/lib

ilink32.cfg
-L"c:\Borland\bcc55\Lib";
-L"e:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\precomp\lib";

Add the above files in the bin folder
C:\Borland\bcc55\Bin

Copy E:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\precomp\LIB\orasql10.lib to C:\Borland\bcc55\Bin
Folder
Run coff2omf orasql10.lib orasql10~.lib
In bin folder
Copy orasql10~.lib to E:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\precomp\LIB

Copy all lib files of oracle to C:\Borland\bcc55\Lib folder
Copy all .h files in E:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\precomp\public to C:\Borland\bcc55\Include

Restart cmd prompt
Create db.h

In C:\Borland\bcc55\Include

Now we are all set
Copy fun1.pc to bin folder C:\Borland\bcc55\Bin

Run Proc fun1.pc
Run bcc32 /IC:E:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\precomp\public fun1.c /LINK E:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\precomp\LIB\orasql10~.lib
Run fun1
Enjoy!
