Dear Sir:

I try to use perl script to connect to a oracle database in cygwin, and I am 
getting this error msg:
install_driver(Oracle) failed: cann't locate DBD/Oracle.pm in @INC (@INC 
contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.8/cygwin ......)
Perphase the DBD::Oracle perl module hasn't been fully installed

Perl5.8 came with cygwin package, but I cann't find DBI and DBD-Oracle there 
in the package, so I dowlloaded both from CPAN and installed them in cygwin. 
Everything seems all right.

I can see that there is an Oracle.pm in C:\DBD-Oracle-1.16\blib\lib\DBD, but 
obviously, this dir is not included in @INC. What should I do to let @INC 
find it?

Thanks very much!

Jessie
