Thread: error in compilation!
Hi All,
I am constantly getting this error:

I tried make clean, make distclean and even removing {scan.c,
gram.c and parse.h} by hand from src/backend/parse!!! But the error
keeps coming back.
Grep shows that it is even compiled into SUBSYS.o:
$ grep standard_conforming_strings *
grep: CVS: Invalid argument
Binary file SUBSYS.o matches
Binary file gram.o matches
scan.c:bool standard_conforming_strings = false;
scan.c: if (standard_conforming_strings)
scan.l:bool standard_conforming_strings = false;
scan.l: if (standard_conforming_strings)
All this started after when I did 'make unistall' and updated the
tree to HEAD. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Gurjeet.

Lack of DLLIMPORT. However, the correct fix is that plpgsql has no
business depending on the setting of standard_conforming_strings
here anyway (because the constructed string might be used later
after a change to standard_conforming_strings).
Guess I'd better go review Bruce's recent patch.

I'm planning to revert it to the previous logic: E if there's any
backslash. I think we have to do likewise in quote_literal() for
much the same reason: insufficient confidence that we know how
the result will be used. (Note dblink uses quote_literal for
strings it will send to the other database.)
Currently looking through the rest of the patch. I'm wondering
about appendStringLiteral: maybe we should kill that entirely
in favor of using PQescapeStringConn? It's not nearly bright
enough about encoding for instance (and it *will* be used in
client-only encodings).

Any ideas how I can revert back to compilable code?

We could make an appendStringLiteralConn, which would do this correctly
for most of the utility programs. However there's a problem for
pg_restore: it doesn't necessarily have a PGconn at all. (Consider
the case of pg_restore producing text output.)
It seems that the alternatives are to export PQescapeStringInternal
from libpq, or to duplicate its functionality in appendStringLiteral.
Don't much like either, but perhaps the second is less bad. Any
opinions?

Confirmation: The patch rollback in src/pl/plpgsql/src/gram.y resolved the issue. On 5/28/06, Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us> wrote: > I wrote: > > Currently looking through the rest of the patch.

Good thing only dblink and /contrib/tablefunc use quote_literal().. -- Bruce Momjian http://candle.pha.pa.us EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. +
