wherethat comes from, without actually looking at the<br /> code, though. Nested arrays are not supported by ecpg and
the<br/> precompiler spits out an error message, just check preproc/type.c.<br /> However, in your example you have the
structessantially sandwiched<br /> between the arrays and the (too) simple check in that file doesn't<br /> notice, but
becausethe implementation is nevertheless lacking.<br /><br /> I'm sorry, but this sounds like a missing feature
