i think both C++ and pgsql play nice with odbc. there
may be a better way to connect, but i don't know since
i don't know C++

as i udnerstand it, you can sell your software and are
not required to open source the project. my non legal
opinion is no substitute for sound legal advice,
though.

C++ should allow you to format and display the data
you query from pgsql. open reports also has some
reporting functionality along the lines of crystal
reports. however, do check the licensing for open
reports. you may not be able to package it with you
application, although your clients can likely set it
up on site. check with your attorney.

good luck!
