CLISP ?

Common Lisp, http://clisp.cons.org. In some earlier life it had support
for PostgreSQL 6.3 and 6.4. I've never really used it myself, though.

Hi to all!
I searched all the pgsql mailing list (and the internet) to find if there
is a dbexpress driver or some way to get pgsql into Borland Kylix. The only
solution i've found is the beta driver from EasySoft "dbExpress Gateway to
ODBC".
Is there another way or is there any plan to support Kylix & dbExpress?

Please, let me know: i'm going to develop a program in kylix and i'm
considering what db platform to use. If isn't there another way i've to
choose Interbase instead of pgsql (with very very much regret...).

Thank to all,
Denis Gasparin

Hello,

There is one under development. Alternatively you could try and modify the
GNU ObjectPascal driver for use in Kylix.

Zeos (www.zeoslib.org) has released the last version of their library and
now it supports kylix! Obviously, it isn't dbexpress but it uses directly
the pgsql.so library. Give it a try! It works...

Try using ZeosDBO at http://www.zeoslib.org/ this has just been ported to
Kylix. Not sure how stable it is but the windows version is great :).

Hi Denis and Ben,

I searched all the pgsql mailing list (and the
internet) to find if there
is a dbexpress driver or some way to get pgsql into Borland
Kylix. The only
solution i've found is the beta driver from EasySoft
"dbExpress Gateway to
ODBC".

Try using ZeosDBO at http://www.zeoslib.org/ this has just been ported to
Kylix. Not sure how stable it is but the windows version is great :).

If you do not mind missing the DatabaseControls (TDBGrid, etc) you may just get the postgresql unit from Free Pascal (www.freepascal.org).

Also take a look at their FCL (Free Component Library), the development version has a clone of a TDataset and a PostgreSQL-specific subclass. Maybe you can compile it with Kylix and use with CLX data controls.
