Pre-Installation Considerations

The installation process for ODP.NET is independent of the TimesTen environment. Nothing is installed into the TimesTen installation directories.

Be aware of these important notes:

  • To use ODP.NET for TimesTen, ODP.NET should be installed on the same system as your TimesTen client. See Installation and Management of TimesTen on Windows in Oracle TimesTen In-Memory Database Installation, Migration, and Upgrade Guide. In addition, a TimesTen DSN must be configured. Refer to Specifying Data Source Names to Identify TimesTen Databases in Oracle TimesTen In-Memory Database Operations Guide.

  • It is recommended, but not required (unless otherwise noted), to remove any previous versions of ODP.NET before installing a new version.

  • After you have completed the installation steps, the location of ODP.NET binaries varies depending on your type of Oracle product installation and version of .NET. Consult Oracle Data Provider for .NET Developer's Guide and the ODP.NET README file for information.

Refer to Oracle Data Provider for .NET Developer's Guide for additional information about ODP.NET installation, including associated Windows registry entries.
