Sample Program

Greetings:

I have so far been unsuccessful in my searches.  Does someone have a very small sample of a C/C++ program to read some data out of a Postgresql database and insert a new record?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks
Chris

There was an example of using libpq with C in Bruce's book:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/awbook.html

it was chapter 17, section 1, but it might have changed.

If you want to go one step further & learn Java, I can supply several
examples using Java & JDBC...

Also try going to this link & look for instructions on getting the examples
rpm if you are on RH:

http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/PostgreSQL-HOWTO-6.html#ss6.4

I don't know if C is among the examples, but this is where I got some Java
samples...

Also, you can fetch this book in PDF format (for example once per week)
It is good, but still incomplete, source of PostgreSQL information.
But week-by-week it becomes better :-)

Found examples in:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/aw_pgsql_book/node188.html

These include the techniques that I use at home and have had "few" problems.
Have fun.

Actually, it is done, and has been for a few months.  Should be for sale
in a week or so.
