Hi
I am trying to connect to the postgresql and make quries usuing my
application in c language using the libpq library.can you please tell me how
to setup the enviromnet and where to place files so that I can run examples
given on the libpq site.( if I use gcc compiler on linux or borland turbo c)
Regards
The standard placing for the files is /usr/lib for libpq and
/usr/include for the header files.
These paths should be standard search paths for gcc
I believe the linux installs have these files as part of the devel
install - the postgresql-devel-xxx rpm - you will need to install that.
If you have done a manual setup and build from source then /usr would be
replaced with the prefix path used (./configure --prefix=...)
eg. /usr/local/pgsql/lib is a common one.
For gcc HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS is used for headers and LIBRARY_SEARCH_PATHS
for libs. Or -I can be used as an option to gcc and -L with ld when
linking. eg gcc -I /usr/local/pgsql/include myprog.c
