Depending on what you're trying to do, there are simpler options than OCI. The Pro C/C++ precompiler is an option that lets you embed SQL in your code, then run it through a program Oracle provides that creates all the OCI code necessary to retrieve that data from the database.
There are also a few OCI wrappers that greatly simplify the task of accessing the database for your typical data retrievals. Three of them are found at the bottom of this page: http://www.orafaq.com/faqoci.htm.
I recently switched from using straight OCI to the Oracle Template Library (OTL) package mentioned. I've found it to greatly simplify your typical database accesses. The page includes docs and over a hundred examples.
Depending on exactly what you're trying to do, give one of these libraries a try.

But most developers choose to use the Oracle ODBC driver.
Check with your Oracle sales rep. for the developer product.
You probably got the ODBC driver with your Oracle software.
