Hi Sir John,
Thanks for the links and reply.
I downloaded this "libpqxx-3.0" but i really don't know what to do
with the file and where to put them. I'm still having hard time how to
start the C++ program using Dev C++ as my IDE, what files do i need to
install, what headers to use, how the basic flow of program should
look like (maybe for a simple database connection). I already
installed PostgreSQL version 1.8.4 in my PC (windows). I have basic
understanding and background in C++ programming, but totally new to
PostgreSQL database system.
as I said earlier, I'd probably just use C API calls to libpq, and do my
own C++ wrappings. C++ libraries pretty much have to be compiled for
the speciifc compiler environment, so I'd have to assume youd load the
libpqxx project source into your IDE, and build it.
with libpq, the OS should already have the .so (or dll if you're on
windows), and .h files, so you'd simply #include <libpq-fe.h> and call
the various functions using :: in front of the code to indicate they are
not part of a class. you might have to tell the IDE where the libpq h
and .so files are if they aren't in a standard system library locations
like /usr/include and /usr/lib
I've never used that IDE so I have no idea of the specifics of how you
configure it with new libraries or include files.
