Installing Oracle Instant Client libraries into the DCO directory

After installing ECDA Option for Oracle, install the Oracle Instant Client libraries into the DCO directory.

Prepare the DCO directory for the Oracle Instant Client libraries:

cd <install_dir>/DCO-15_0/lib
rm libclntsh.so
ln -s libclntsh.so.10.1 libclntsh.so

Copy the Oracle Instant Client libraries into the DCO directory:
```
cd <install_dir>/DCO-15_0/lib
cp <tempdir>/instantclient_10_2/*.
```
where tempdir is the directory to which you extracted the Oracle Instant Client libraries.
Restart the DCO or use the DCWizard utility to configure the DCO for a new installation.
