SOURCE This has taken me longer to get to than I thought, but here it is.  The
zip file contains three units:

1) Boost.Database - a minimalist abstract database interface.  The
interface (boost::db::database in database.hpp) really exposes two main
methods:  one performs execute queries, and one performs queries that
return data sets.  These are called row_sets and provide a random access
container interface.  The interface also provides start/commit/rollback
transaction functions.  These are implemented with execute queries but
are included to allow reference counted, nested transactions.

2) Boost.Database.Postgresql - an implementation of the above interface
for postgresql

3) test - a small program that opens and queries a postgresql database.

I've compiled this on VC 7.1 but I don't think there's anything that
won't work on another platform.

Let me know what you think,

Brock
