C++ 2

As I understand it, if you use libpq, all you need is TCP/IP networking, and you can access a remote PostgreSQL database. You have to be careful to set up your pg_hba.conf file correctly to allow for remote connections, though, and you have to start the postgres daemon with the -i option.

ODBC also works quite well, though. Just go to and download psqlODBC to install on any Windows system that will be accessing the database, and you have an ODBC connection to PostgreSQL. (I believe psqlODBC simply provides an ODBC "front end" to libpq which makes the actual connection to PostgreSQL) -------------------------------------------

so...it doesn't matter if my C++ is under Windows and my db is under linux?...I am not going to have any configuration or compatibilities issues?

Thanks for your answer...

No it doesn't. As long as you have the client libraries for your Windows box, it doesn't care what OS the PostgreSQL server is running. //Daniel

Thanks!!!

me again...

so I will have to download the libpq++ library files for Windows, put those on my Windows box and include the library on my program to connect to the Postgresql db?

Where can I get the libpq++ library?

have you used it?...do you know about performance issues? or bugs?

Thanks!
