have started at the beginning of the PostSQL Programmer's Guide and have typed in part of example 1.1 on page 23.

I have followed the instructions in section 1.12 for building the program.

The program compiles cleanly using the instructions in the manual :

cc -I/usr/local/pgsql/include jim.c

I then compile it with the instruction

cc -o jim jim.o -L/usr/local/pgsql/lib -lpq

However, I get the following errors:

Undefined symbol

PQfinish

PQsetdbLogin

pqstatus

fprint

PQerrorMessage

The manual says this occurs if I forgot the -lpq option, which I have not done.

I am using SCO Unix.

Can anyone help me?
