I was wondering what are the currently popular choices for database
connectivity in C++.

Is there a standard being worked on that will become the C++
equivalence of java's JDBC?

ODBC have been standardised since 1992.

So all he has to do is find a library which implements it:-).

I used OTL (http://otl.sourceforge.net/home.htm) in one previous
project. I'm not sure I totally agree with the philosophie, but
it did work out pretty well. No support for any of the free
databases (mySQL, PostgreSQL, etc.), however (at least as far as
I can tell).
