+Loading pgtcl into your application
+
+
+ Before using pgtcl commands, you must load
+ libpgtcl> into your Tcl application. This is normally
+ done with the Tcl load> command. Here is an example:
+
+
+ load libpgtcl[info sharedlibextension]
+
+
+ The use of info sharedlibextension> is recommended in
+ preference to hard-wiring .so> or .sl> into
+ the program.
+
+
+
+ The load> command will fail unless the system's dynamic loader
+ knows where to look for the libpgtcl> shared library file.
+ You may need to work with ldconfig>, or set the environment
+ variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH>, or use some equivalent facility for
+ your platform to make it work.
+
+
+
+ libpgtcl> in turn depends on libpq>, so the
+ dynamic loader must also be able to find the libpq> shared
+ library. In practice this is seldom an issue, since both of these
+ shared libraries are normally stored in the same directory, but it
+ can be a stumbling block in some configurations.
+
+
+
+ If you use a custom executable for your application, you might choose
+ to statically bind libpgtcl> into the executable and thereby
+ avoid the load> command and the potential problems of dynamic
+ linking. See the source code for pgtclsh> for an example.
