�lvaro:

You can't include object code via a #include statement. Anything in a #included files must be text, as it is compiled right after being included.

Your idea of linking in the the library is right... check out the help for gcc's command line parms and see how to link in a library. You'll also have to find out how to compile the SQL functions into that library.

Good luck.
