Default Do I ALWAYS have to setup an ODBC entry when accessing Oracle from a program ?

I would like to access/connect from a (CSharp) program to a running Oracle database.
For that I have to specify a connectionstring with a DataSource as parameter.

Do I have to pass an existing ODBC System DSN name or is it possible to pass the
database name (here "XE") directly without declaration of an ODBC Data Source?
