Thread: ecpg c++ scope operator lost
Ecpg pretty prints my code causing compile errors.
ie. code to compile:
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
char bound_waiting_state =
static_cast<char>(Processor::waiting);
EXEC SQL END DECLARE SECTION;
turns into:
/* exec sql begin declare section */
#line 90 "Schedule.pgcc"
char bound_waiting_state = static_cast < char > ( Processor : :
waiting ) ;
/* exec sql end declare section */
#line 93 "Schedule.pgcc"
The scope operator becomes space padded and compiler barfs.
Work around is to initialise variables outside of declare section.

Mark Pether.

If that's the case then you'd better change your documentation... PostgreSQL 7.3 Documentation Chapter 4. ECPG - Embedded SQL in C This chapter describes the embedded SQL package for PostgreSQL. It works with C and *C++.* It was written by Linus Tolke (<linus@epact.se <mailto:linus@epact.se>>) and Michael Meskes (<meskes@postgresql.org <mailto:meskes@postgresql.org>>). Regards, Mark Pether.

Actually we did add some C++ stuff, so if you can send me a list of what doesn't work I will add this to the ecpg todo list, but I wouldn't say we guarantee that all C++ constructs work with ecpg.
