Hi all,
I'm using PG - 7.2.4 on Solaries.
I'm using "libpq++" library as client implementation is coded in "C++".
 
I'm doing the following :
1.	Making the connection to database by creating new object of
"PgDatabase" i.e.
data = new PgDatabase( " CONNECTION INFO ");
 
2.	Then I execure the query with:
int return = data->Exec( " THIS IS A SQL QUERY");
 
My question is ,
How should I clear(free) the result of the query? Need  I close the
connection after each query to do that? 
I wish to use the same connection for multiple queries.
 
This problem I've observed with "libpq++" only not with "libpq" . With
"libpq" APIs the,
"PQexec" API returns "PGresult"  type pointer with which we can clear
with the result of the query with "Pqclear(Pgresult *)" API.
 
Is the same functionality is present in "lipq++" APIs also?
 
Pls. help.
 
Thanks,
Anagha

It looks to me that PgConnection::Exec clears an existing query result
when it's called.

// PgConnection::exec  -- send a query to the backend
ExecStatusType PgConnection::Exec(const char* query)
{
	// Clear the result stucture if needed
	if (pgResult)
		PQclear(pgResult);

	// Execute the given query
	pgResult = PQexec(pgConn, query);

	// Return the status
	if (pgResult)
		return PQresultStatus(pgResult);
	else
		return PGRES_FATAL_ERROR;
}
