H.1. Client Interfaces

There are only two client interfaces included in the base PostgreSQL distribution:

  • libpq is included because it is the primary C language interface, and because many other client interfaces are built on top of it.

  • ECPG is included because it depends on the server-side SQL grammar, and is therefore sensitive to changes in PostgreSQL itself.

All other language interfaces are external projects and are distributed separately. A list of language interfaces is maintained on the PostgreSQL wiki. Note that some of these packages are not released under the same license as PostgreSQL . For more information on each language interface, including licensing terms, refer to its website and documentation.
