Sorry, I don't really know. I've never used it. But I can try to take a guess from 2 minutes I scanned over the PostgreSQL manual. It seems that you would write your script using only normal C and ecpg syntax. (I am not sure this is correct). Such a file can not be compiled directly. It has to be feed to a preprocessor first: ecpg prog1.pgc which generates -> prog1.c The newly created C file is what is actually processed by the C processor. The syntax conforms to that from libpq. cc -c prog1.c So, maybe "long story short" if you want to code exclusively in C and do not want to worry about preprocessing then you should take a look at the following: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/libpq.html If anyone would like to correct any of my assumptions, please feel free. :-) Regards, Richard Broersma Jr. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
