OO4O Redistributable Files

Redistributable Files

This section discusses files that can be redistributed or updated on an end user's or a developer's machine.

If you cannot guarantee that your end users will have this release of Oracle Objects for OLE installed on their computer, you need to redistribute specific files which are part of Oracle Objects for OLE along with your OO4O application. A typical scenario might be if OO4O will be installed as a patch without use of Oracle Universal Installer.
