Compile error, or link error? I tried the same, and got complaints
about the linker not being able to find several PgConnection routines
until I added "-L/usr/local/pgsql/lib -lpq++ -lpq" to the command line:
$ g++ -I/usr/local/pgsql/include pgtest.cc
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
/bin/ld: Unsatisfied symbols:
PgConnection::PgConnection(void)(code)
PgConnection::PgConnection(char const *)(code)
PgConnection::~PgConnection(void)(code)
PQfnumber (code)
$ g++ -I/usr/local/pgsql/include pgtest.cc -L/usr/local/pgsql/lib -lpq++ -lpq
[ no complaint ]
If you're using shared libraries there are also possibilities for
installation problems that prevent libpq++ from finding libpq at run
time, but evidently you're not getting that far yet :-(.
