libpq binds you to using NUL terminated C strings, and, no doubt,
In that case, yes, there are such implementations around. Martijn
mentioned a few, and I mentioned the Pike one, all of which do indeed
bypass libpq and talk directly to the server. It is, as I understand
it, an open and stable protocol, so it's no different from writing a
program that connects

I downloaded PIKE. The PostgreSQL direct network module for Pike,
pgsql.pike (and the other modules), shows how it was done.
Many thanks for the tip. I rarely step out of Delphi, so I was unaware of
the power

By by-passing the dll (or so on Linux) library I mean you write

You connect directly to the server thus saving one layer of protocols.
To do this, you

It appears that some developers (Davart) are by-passing the standard

Does anyone know if there is a compiled version of libpq.dll (ssl
enabled) that does not require
libintl-2.dll, libiconv-2.dll
Whoever compiled these dlls failed to include version information with
them, so it makes it a royal pain to deploy them, and it appears they
must be in the system
