Thread: Include directory

Hi all,

After installing I wish to use the library libpq that comes with
postgresql, I added /usr/local/pgsql/lib to my LD_LIBRARY_PATH
environment variable. But what should I do so that in my C
program I can do #include <libpq-fe.h> ? I need to make
/usr/local/pgsql/include a include system directory. How can I do
that? Oh, I'm running slackware linux 8.0, bash shell.

Best regards,

    Yes, God had a deadline...
        So, He wrote it all in Lisp!

Add:

-I/usr/local/pgsql/include

to your compiler command line in the Makefile (usually just adding it
to CFLAGS is enough).
