Thread: Where is the library?

I want to hook up an application witten in C++ to PostgreSQL, but I
don't have any idea as to where the linker should look for the
PostreSQL
library. Any body?

If you did not change the standard location, with different values for the
--prefix, --exec-prefix or --libdir configure options, they should be in:

/usr/local/pgsql/lib

Depend on where you installed it. By default you would find headers/lbs
either under /usr/local/pgsql, or /usr/local/[lib|include]/pgsql, I don't
recall which. If you installed via RPM or some packaging utility, you may
have to install a "postgres-libs" package.

I am running Solaris 2.6 (on Sparc) and would like to install
PostgreSQL, dose new version PostgreSQL 7.1.3 support Solaris 2.6? I
only see 2.7 and 2.8 in the doc.
