Thread: query PostgreSQL from c++

Hi folks,

I'm asked to write a "small" c++ application to query a PostgreSQL DB.
In principel I can't see why this should be so difficult but I don't
really know a lot about the API. Therefor I thought I just ask if anyone
has done this before - of course I think - and might be able and willing
to give me a few tips. Maybe there's even a document somewhere which
I could consult? 
So if someone has tipps and/or examples or maybe a suggestion for a book,
please mail me,
chris

Have you looked at the documentation?  (e.g., on the web site, or in your
local installation)
