At least some of your problems are due to confusing list nodes with the
nodes they point to, as in this example from parse_clause.c:
List *
ListTableAsAttrs(ParseState *pstate, char *table);
List *
ListTableAsAttrs(ParseState *pstate, char *table)
{List *rlist = NULL;List *col;
Attr *attr = expandTable(pstate, table, TRUE);foreach(col, attr->attrs){ Attr *a; a = makeAttr(table,
strVal((Value*) col)); rlist = lappend(rlist, a);}
return rlist;
}
I tried, but failed, to refrain from remarking about the horrible
style of the function declaration --- either it's static (which
looks like the right answer here) or it should be declared in
a header file. The above method of preventing gcc from telling
you how horrible your style is is just, well, never mind.
The more immediate problem is that you want
a = makeAttr(table, strVal((Value *) lfirst(col)));
I cleaned up a similar error in ruleutils.c, but am too tired to
fix this one or go digging for more.
