Hi Bruce, Hi Michael,
here is the really short patch for shutting out all postgres definitions
from ecpg
programs. (e.g. Datum, Pointer, DEBUG, ERROR).
Someone really should take a look into libpq and do the same.
But I had to copy a small part of c.h (bool,true,false,TRUE,FALSE) into
ecpg/include/libecpg.h. And ... there is a possible bug in c.h. You
can't check a
typedef via #ifndef.
typedef char bool;
...
#ifndef bool
typedef char bool;
#endif
will fail. But I don't know any decent solution to that problem!
Perhaps c.h should be broken into seperate parts.
Christof
PS: to Jacek: you need this patch to compile libcommon++.a!
