I downloaded the free express edition of oracle, Oracle XE. I couldn't find the ProC compiler in this edition. I read somewhere that Oracle 9i client has ProC, so I presumed that Oracle client for 10g XE should have it too and downloaded it. But to my disappointment, I can't find it there.
Is there a way to download the older oracle 9i and use it connect to 10g XE without any compatibility problems?. Or is it possible to download the Pro*C compiler alone?
I don't want to download the standard editions as they are too large (2 GB).

SHORT ANSWER: For XE, you will need to download and install the 10g client into a new software home.
BACKGROUND: The pro*c precompiler for 10g was actually not released with the database software installation, but only in the separate client installation.
ADDITIONAL INFO: If you were working with anything other than XE, you can use the client installation to "Add" to the existing database install.
