      Thanks for the comments. Yes objective is
        to work in C and found libpq useful but am not sure about psqlODBC.

        
      It would be really great to get comments
        from community here regarding comparison between both of them
        and also performance perspective. Based on my reading so far
        libpq is good from performance perspective.
    
    
    libpq lets you talk directly to postgres in its native tongue.

    
    ODBC implements a sort of abstraction.     IMHO, its like trying to
    type with mittens on.
