Using OCI on developper tools

Question

Hi,
i'm trying to use OCI with XCode but I can't...
When I try to build, it make this error :
TestOracle:0: table of contents for archive: /Users/oracle/TestOracle/libocci9.a is out of date; rerun ranlib(1) (can't load from it)
I've tried to run ranlib on this library but it's the same pb...
Can anybody help me ?
Thanks,
guillaume

and to set up this var (the dynamic lib path) so that you can use your windows app from the finder or xcode, you can check this:
"This is true, but it is also possible, and I believe Gary alluded to
this in his post, to set environment variables for all GUI apps a user
launches under Mac OS X. In every user's home directory, there is an
invisible directory named:
.MacOSX
In that .MacOSX directory create (or add to, if it already exits) a
.plist file named:
.environment.plist
The easiest way to edit .plist files is with Property List Editor Which
is in /Developer/Applications if you've installed the Developer Tools
(or Xcode).
To add environment variables that will be in effect for any GUI app,
such as the Carbon Version of Emacs, available at:
<http://mindlube.com/products/emacs/index.html>
add new children to the Root entry (or new siblings of existing child
entries, same diff), one for each environment variable, and enter it's
value on the right hand side.
For example, to use slime with sbcl, the environment variable SBCL_HOME
must be set (it's the directory where the sbcl core file is). So, you'd
make a new child named SBCL_CORE and set its value to /usr/lib/sbcl (if
that's where you've installed sbcl).
To have a certain value of PATH in effect for all GUI apps, add (or
modify if already existing) a child named PATH and set its value to:
.:/another/directory/I/want/to/add:/yet/another:/another/still
Note the .: at the beginning (dot colon) - this tells the system to add
these entries to the existing default entries which are already in
effect for all Mac OS X GUI apps. Note that the last entry does *not*
need to have a colon after it.
N.B. - For any changes to take effect, you will have to log out and log
back in. This one has bitten me many times. Dammed aggressive caching!
(unfortunately, merely executing:
touch ~/.MacOSX and/or
touch ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist
will not work. You really do need to log out and back in again).
Does anybody know if there's a process that can be killed and
restarted so that logging out can be avoided (probably the
WindowServer, so you'd lose anyway - oh well)."
