You might want to take the time to grab the full Postgres source
distribution from postgresql.org, and unpack it. The doc/ directory has
substantial html and postscript docs, and the src/man directory has some
man pages. *or*...
The html and ps docs are also available on the postgresql.org ftp site
as tar files, probably in the patch directory (rummage around one level
deep from /pub and you'll find something; I just don't remember what I
called them).
libpq++ does not suffer from an overabundance of docs, but contributions
are welcome. New info will help the next person who comes along trying
to do the same thing...
Good luck.
