Thread: postgresql-8.4.1 compile error (with Sun Studio 11)

Hi pgsql-general,

I'm looking at compiling postgresql using Sun Studio 11, on Solaris 8.
 I'm getting the following error:

gmake[7]: Entering directory

`/home/maciej/src/opencsw/pkg/postgresql/trunk/work/solaris8-sparc/build-isa-sparcv8/postgresql-8.4.1/src/interfaces/ecpg/pgtypeslib'

Has anyone else come across this problem?

What it looks like from here is that you have old/incompatible versions
of the postgresql header files in /opt/csw/postgresql/include.  Get rid
of the ill-considered -I pointing at those, and maybe it will be better.
