I've had a few tries at testing the ECPG threadsafe patch, but so far no luck,
probably due to my own lack of experience. Can someone help me out with how
to test this?
So far I have:
- run configure
- applied Lee's patch to the source tree for 7.3.2
- edited src/Makefile.global, adding -pthread to CFLAGS and and -lpthread to
LIBS
- make and make install
- make our own pthread'd app, linking against newly installed pgsql
Then when I run our app with 3 DB threads, I can watch 2 of the threads fail
to return from EXEC SQL, which is exactly the same behaviour we used to get.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm building on RedHat Linux 7.3
on Intel, using all standard tools for that version (except updated bison
from 1.35 to 1.875). So gcc 2.96, gmake 3.79.1, etc. Let me know if more
details are required.
Regards, Philip Yarra.
