Did you get an answer ? I think the problem is a question of path ... you have to add something as -L.. -pq -pq++ as parameters for your gcc command. I can't remember precisely, have a look in the makefile of the libpq++ directory and try to guess. I resolved the problem of the path access copying all the headers files of postgres 1 level of directory upper. I'm sure there is a smarter way, but I've not yet found it. (I hear the laughts of those who know !) As you can see, I'm not a guru, but I'd like to help and be helped since documentation for libpq++ is either well hidden, either simply not included. (I think I've heard about man pages, but I was unable to find these; all I've found is some sample progs and a makefile that won't work ...) Is it "normal" ? Is it because of the Debian distrib & packages ? It's not a good answer, but it's my best one. Hope this will decide some expert to help us. KaDe
