Thread: I need example of c++ function for postgres

I need example of c++ function for postgres

Hello, everyone !

I have developed function for postgresql, compile it, make .so-file and
when I try to link this function to a database it was an error "Cannot
find function weight_ave in <file>.so". Here is code of this function:

weight_ave.h :

#ifndef _WEIGHTAVE_H
#define _WEIGHTAVE_H

double weight_ave (const double* const w, const double* const x, int n);

#endif

weight_ave.cpp:

#include "weight_ave.h"

double weight_ave (const double* const w, const double* const x, int n)
{
    double sumx=0.0;
    double sumw=0.0;
    for (int i=0; i<n; i++)
    {
        sumx+=w[i]*x[i];
        sumw+=w[i];
    }
    return sumx/sumw;
}

what files I have to include and which way I have to declare this
function on include.

Best regards,
Sincerely yours,
Yuriy Rusinov.

Yuriy,

A look at

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/static/xfunc-c.html

(or xfunc-c.html in your distribution's docs) could offer some help. This is more a general using issue than a cygwin
one.

SLao

Have a look at http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/interactive/xfunc-c.html
You'll almost certainly want to extern "c" any routines you want to call from postgres (this'll stop C++ name mangaling).

Also this is the pgsql-cygwin list, meant for the cygwin MS Windows version of postgres.
I suspect you'll probably find more help on pgsql-general@postgresql.org

P.S. Sorry about the format change, the disclaimer adder forces it :(
