Connect and process oracle data from Objective-C on Mac OS

I am looking for any resources or examples, to connect to an Oracle database and fetch large amounts of data and process/display using 开发者_开发百科Cocoa/Objective-C.

Is there any way without ODBC with native Cocoa API, or I have to go thru the perl / C++ OCI calls only?

I don't see where Perl fits in but I'd definitely go with OCI since it is a C based API that should plug into Objective-C just fine.

Here's the link to the Oracle Instant Client which should have the headers and libraries you need:

And here is the OCI docs on how to actually use the thing:
