Hello,
I am using embedded SQL command for creating the database:
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
char dbase[32];
EXEC SQL END DECLARE SECTION;
...
EXEC SQL CONNECT TO postgres;
//the create database cannot be run in transaction block
EXEC SQL SET AUTOCOMMIT TO ON;
EXEC SQL CREATE DATABASE :dbase;
I get an error during compile with ecpg (/usr/bin/ecpg -I../../include -c source_file.ec)
ERROR: syntax error at or near ":dbase"
*** Error code 3
When I use literal string like: "EXEC SQL CREATE DATABASE my_dbase;" it is compilable and it works.
All other SQL commands work with the variables except for the CREATE DATABASE.
I am using the package postgresql-devel-8.1.3-12.
Any idea?
Thank you!
Pavel Krejci
