But you can also use libpq from C++, and for simpler work it's often easier than libpqxx. There are also several other C++ bindings - sqlapi++, soci and Qt are some off the top of my head.

2012/9/17 Ryan Kelly: > http://pqxx.org/development/libpqxx/ Last question... According to the link provided by you, it is said that libpqxx comes with postgres. But in the archive with postgres sources I haven't find libpqxx. -- Regards, niXman ___________________________________________________ Dual-target(32 & 64 bit) MinGW compilers for 32 and 64 bit Windows: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingwbuilds/

Technically speaking, the only official C++ api is libpq, which, while a C API, is C++ compatible. libpxx is a set of wrappers to libpq that will give you C++ classes to use vs the more traditional C API calls. It's very mature and works well if you prefer that style of development. merlin

It's a wiki, but not one with public editing, I think. ChrisA

PostgreSQL was not one of the database engines included in the study. However, I suspect that a study of PostgreSQL would show the same tendencies. Once you are used to programming in ODBC, it is quite simple. Of course, I write standards based drivers for a living, so my testimony has a built-in bias. <<
