| Hi, I have a .h file in that there is a function in which there arguments were username and password for the database so that the user should be logged in,for that i need to write my own program.This is something about administrator privileges etc... can any one of you tell me the procedure to do this so that i will start working on it. Thank You, Avin. |

Maybe you can rephrase your question a bit? Its not clear what you really want. If its all about credential storage on the client you might check pgpass: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/libpq-pgpass.html Tino

If you need to run a procedure as a super user, look into security definer.
