Choose which oci.dll use with qsqloci plugin

Question

I'd like to be able to choose which oci.dll the Qt plugin is using, the Qt documentation states:

When you run your application you will also need to add the oci.dll path to your PATH environment variable: set PATH=%PATH%;c:\oracle\bin

Is there another way than changing the PATH?

You can subkey of the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3114618/adding-a-application-specific-paths-so-it-works-from-the-command-line-in-windows/3114674#3114674 and http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2822951/use-registry-to-startup-a-program-and-also-change-the-current-working-directory/ for details and other ways.
