How to use by-passing the installation

From

Hi All,
I'm a Windows MS C++ developer, and currently all my apps set are running in a not installable way. Users just
uncompressa zip file to start using the programs.  
PostgreSQL start/stop commands are also controlled by my application.

I would like to know if there is a way to make PosgreSQL ODBC connection by-passing the odbc driver installation?

Is it possible to directly use the files psqlodbc30a.dll / psqlodbc35w.dll when they are not listed/recognized by
odbcad32.exe?

Marco

Marco,

You will need to use libpq.  PG manual has plenty of information on that.
