Most of these, however, -are fairly C-like in their programming style, and fail to take -advantage of the full power of the C++ language as it has matured -since the acceptance of the Standard in 1996. What libpqxx brings you -is effective use of templates to reduce the inconvenience of dealing -with type conversions; of standard C++ strings to keep you from having -to worry about buffer allocation and overflow attacks; of exceptions -to take the tedious and error-prone plumbing around error handling out -of your hands; of constructors and destructors to bring resource -management under control; and even basic object-orientation to give -you some extra reliability features that would be hard to get with -most other database interfaces. - -WWW: http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/libpqxx/ |
