Subject: problem with the ecpg -D option
Date: Thu, 31 Aug 2000 03:35:30 -0700 (PDT)
Message-ID: <20000831103530.6928.qmail@web2105.mail.yahoo.com> (raw)

Configuration :
system   : sun sparc ultra 5 
os       : solaris 2.7
postgres : 7.0.2
compilator : cc compilator from the workshop.

Problem: 
 I used the ecpg tool in order to build a c program. 
 I would like to use a conditional compilation in
order to have the same code to acces different system
database but the ecpg tool just copy the #ifdef
statements to the c program.

Example:
 #ifdef ORACLE
  exec sql fetch cursor_name into :s_variable /* fetch
instruction for an oracle database */
 #endif
  The preprocessor just copy those lines to the c
program whereas it should ignore them and as the fetch
statement which was deserved for oracle is
unrecognised by postgres, the preprocessor is unable
to parse the file.

 I try with the -D option, thinking it works like the
-D option in C but it doesn't.

Thanks in advance.
