Attempting to Run 'Instant Client' via XCode on Mac OS X (v10.4.6)

Question

Environment: OS X (10.4.6) on G4.
The Setup:
I used 'Oracle Instant Client Installer' {http://www.kyngchaos.com/} to install the necessary Oracle libraries here:
[Users/oracle]ls /usr/local/oracle/lib
libclntsh.10.1.dylib* libclntsh.so@ libnnz10.dylib@ libocci.dylib.10.1@ libocijdbc.dylib@
libclntsh.dylib@ libnnz.10.dylib* libocci.10.1.dylib* libociei.dylib* libocijdbc10.dylib@
libclntsh.dylib.10.1@ libnnz.dylib@ libocci.dylib@ libocijdbc.10.dylib*
I've read that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is rather "archaic" for the Mac OS X vs a directory of dylibs accessable directly from XCode.
2) I set the XCode 2.2.1 Library search Path as:
USER_HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS = /usr/local/oracle/sdk/include
LIBRARY_SEARCH_PATHS = /usr/local/oracle/lib
==============
So my questions are:
1) How do I find the available APIs?
I've looked at an on-line example but don't know what I'm doing.
I saw some source-code demo on-line so I essentially cut/pasted the following code.
The following is what I've done within the NSApp's Delegate method:
#include "/usr/local/oracle/sdk/include/oci.h"
static OCIEnv *p_env;
static OCIError *p_err;
static OCISvcCtx *p_svc;
static OCIStmt *p_sql;
static OCIDefine p_dfn    = (OCIDefine ) 0;
static OCIBind p_bnd    = (OCIBind ) 0;
int p_bvi;
char p_sli[20];
int rc;
char errbuf[100];
int errcode;
@implementation AppDelegate
- (id)init {
     self = [super init];
     if (self) {
          rc = OCIInitialize((ub4) OCI_DEFAULT, (dvoid *)0, // Initialize OCI
          (dvoid * (*)(dvoid *, size_t)) 0,
          (dvoid * (*)(dvoid *, dvoid *, size_t))0,
          (void (*)(dvoid *, dvoid *)) 0 );
          // Initialize environment
          rc = OCIEnvInit( (OCIEnv **) &p_env, OCI_DEFAULT, (size_t) 0, (dvoid **) 0 );
          // Initialize handles:
          rc = OCIHandleAlloc( (dvoid *) p_env, (dvoid **) &p_err, OCI_HTYPE_ERROR,
                         (size_t) 0, (dvoid **) 0);
          rc = OCIHandleAlloc( (dvoid *) p_env, (dvoid **) &p_svc, OCI_HTYPE_SVCCTX,
                         (size_t) 0, (dvoid **) 0);
     NSLog(@"{Appdelegate} Init.");
     return self;
} // end init().
==============
What I get is:
test has exited due to signal 6 (SIGABRT).

ZeroLink: unknown symbol '_OCIInitialize'
2) Am I on the right track or what am I doing wrong?

Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
