Oracle instant client deployment?

Imagine if I have a application I install via clickonce or setup to the customer machine.And it needs oracle client? How can the oracle instant client be installed by the end user ? Or how the hell should it be installed? Should I go to each pc and install it?

You just need to do whatever is in the Instant Client installation instructions, which as I recall amounts to copying the files to a folder, and setting the TNS_ADMIN env veriable. It's pretty trivial.

Oracle connection requires SQLNet, an Oracle home, etc. So although you can do instant deployment of .net stuff, the Oracle infrastructure needs to be installed on each and every machine that will connect to the database.
