A library is not useful if it is too hard to get up to speed on OR too terribly different from what people are used to.
Just to stirr up a little bit: http://www.msobczak.com/prog/soci/ This library aims at simple usage patterns, where intuitive and almost "embedded" syntax at at premium. A very different approach from those you discuss, but in fact complementary and can be merged with other approaches. (the code is to be modified a little bit, but what is available at the moment works fine with Visual C++ 7.1 and g++ 3.2) -- Maciej Sobczak : http://www.msobczak.com/ Programming : http://www.msobczak.com/prog/
