Re: Cocoa Database Connection

So, libpq sounds like a well supported way to go, but when I import "libpq-fe.h" into my project I get an error that says "postgres_ext.h: No such file or directory", along with 30 more errors which I assume are related to the lack of this file. I searched my computer for it and I can't find it.

Is there something that I should have installed besides PostgreSQL 8.3.0? I have seen something about doxygen, but I don't know what that is. Do I need it?

Thank you,

Justin Giboney

I am trying to find a way to connect Cocoa to a DBMS.

I have been working for a few weeks trying to find a way to get Cocoa to communicate with PostgreSQL (at this point I am willing to use just about any mainstream database). I have tried using BaseTen (http://www.karppinen.fi/baseten/) and PostgreSQL Cocoa Framework (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pgsqlcocoa/ ), but I have not been able to get either of them to work. Both seem to be very complicated and need a lot of tweaking.

I have heard hints of odbc/iodbc but no tutorials on how to use it in cocoa.

I have PostgreSQL 8.3 installed, running 10.5 on the host that will talk to the DB, and multiple client computers running 10.4 or 10.5

What would you use to create an enterprise level application?
Is there any tutorials that you would use to create the connections to the database?



You can certainly use the straight-C libpq- it works fine.
