What sort of c/c++ environment are you using? One option would be to find something like 'kode' (part of debian linux, I believe) that would generate c++ classes or templates from the RelaxNG schema for svg. Those classes could then be used to generate SVG objects. If you are in the .NET environment, you might want to consider using ADO.NET to get your database objects as XML, and then using XSLT to transform them into SVG. Really fairly flexible and elegant, if you can deal with XSLT.

I was hoping to find a high level API with basic functions built into it like "DrawColoredRectangle (x,y,len,width,color)" There's a very near deadline on this project so i'm trying to get a library with the most comprehensive API i can.
