We are trying to include a module to access an oracle database from
our application which is written in C++ and built on windows with

the runtime library built with the previous version of visual studio,
which in typical microsoft fashion, leads to random crashes when
closing connections. I have a hard time believing we are the only ones
trying to do this. Has anybody encountered and solved this issue?

I don't think the client ever existed of OCI.dll *alone*.
If you only have OCI.dll, you are just doomed.
You need to get a proper client. In 10g and higher, this can be an
instant one.

i have a complete client. i actually tried a few of them. Instant
client and the one delivered with oracle XE both include a dll
(OCI.dll) which depends on the wrong version of the miscrosoft
runtime library, and cause random failures of my application, when an
object allocated by the old runtime gets freed in the new runtime. My
application builds and runs most of the time but random crashes are a
show stopper.
