challengewas getting a port of ‘<span class="SpellE">popt</span>’ library which I used to parse <span
class="SpellE">cmdline</span>options. Now I need to get <span class="SpellE">libpqxx</span> up and running. Does anyone
haveany experience in accomplishing <span class="GramE">this.</span> If not, what do other people do to get around
<spanclass="GramE">this.</span> Is there a more portable <span class="SpellE">pgsql</span>/C++ interface? I have MSVC
6.0and can’t seem to get the <span class="SpellE">makefile</span> to work. Is there a binary I can just link with? Also
wherecan I get the pgsql.dll which is <span class="GramE">required.</span></span></font><p class="MsoNormal"><font
