I had written a small web application using GDA (C), and when the 
changed the API between versions I tried for a few hours to 
figure out to change my application.  The documentation was not 
especially helpful to me.  In any case I ended up porting to SOCI 
at a fraction of the time I spent with GDA.
It is unreal how much better the (C++) interface is.  SOCI also 
changed versions, and the only gotcha I hit was having to 
download the source package for the documentation as web site 
only covered the current version.
If you only need PostgreSQL than  libpgxx 
<http://pqxx.org/development/libpqxx/> is workable as well.
