Обсуждение: ecpg?

Hi, 

I installed postgresql 7.0 from RedHat CD.  According
to the official 7.0 
doc, ecpg comes with the installation.  However, I
could not find ecpg 
(by searching directories and using whereis).  I also
cannot find doc on 
how to invoke ecpg.  

The postgresql seems OK.  I can initdb, postmast,
insert tuples, and 
query the database.   

Please help.  

Thanks, 

Jia

I do not have a RedHat system but I believe ecpg is a package on its own.
You have to install that package to be able to use ecpg.

Thanks very much.   (1) Redhat 7.0 seems do not have ecpg package.  
It has odbc, jdbc perl, and a few others.  I have installed most.  
According to the online official doc, ecpg comes with the package.  
So I am a little confused.  Does it mean Redhat 7.0 does not include 
ecpg?  How do I get ecpg?  How to install it (the online menu does 
not offer instructions)?  (2) If I install postgresql by downloading 
directly, will it include ecpg?  If so, do I need uninstall my present 
postgresql?  

Thanks, 

John

It should be in the postgresql-devel RPM. Download from
 ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/binary/v7.0.3/RedHat-7.0/

if you do not have it available on CD.
