Yes, I found DDJ's article about it 
(http://www.ddj.com/documents/s=953/ddj9613a/9613a.htm)
And there is also DB2 Call Level Interface Guide and Reference
(http://www-4.ibm.com/cgi-bin/software/db2www/library/document.d2w/report?&fn=sqll0.html)

Because PostgreSQL connection is already there, I am looking forward 
when it could be wrapped as a database driver :)
