What about libpq++? I have not used the thing, but if he absolutely insists on using C++ in his database interface that's at least worth checking out. Same for embedded C. I often use the zeos toolkit for postgres, which works with C++ Builder, Delphi, and Kylix. If you use those tools I can vouch that they are a good way to write apps with postgres. The zeos connection toolkit is an order of magnitude faster than pgodbc. For tight oo integration with the database, I would take either Java or (if you hail from *nix and can deal with mono) C#.
