Hi guys 'n' gals,I've recently been given the task of working with the ODBC driver for postgresql. Previously all the
worki've dones been with libpq and libpq++. I've got the driver intsalled on my linux box (i think) but I need to get
thewindows side up and running and I haven't got a clue what I need to do, can anyone help, I can't find anything in
thedocumentation so far so any links of info would be useful!
 

cheers people

Stoo

See SQLInstallDriverEx(), SQLInstallDriverManager() and (possibly)
SQLInstallTranslatorEx() in MSDN.   I have never tried to manually install
an ODBC driver, but I would be interested in seeing it work from sources.
So let me know if you need a partner-in-crime...

Also, I am in the "just past thinking about it" stage of building an OLEDB
Provider for PG since most of the newer Win32 (and all of the ASP/COM)
database frontends use ADO, so seeing the ODBC driver in action would be a
help to me there as well.  

Yes, yes...I know that there is an OLEDB provider for ODBC, but this just
seems like fun.  *worried look*
