Re: [DBD-Informix v0.52] compilation errors using SUNWspro SC3.1

Sometimes I hate the ESQL/C compiler! }From: Binh Thanh Nguyen <nbt@CERF.net> }Date: Wed, 12 Mar 1997 10:42:41 -0800 (PST) }X-Informix-List-Id: <list.13514> } }Dear all, } }I successfully installed DBD::Informix v0.52 on } Sparc 20 } Sun Solaris 2.5 }using gcc 2.7.1 } esqlc-7.13 } }Passing all tests. } }I have problems with the same settings using SUNWspro SC3.1.

You could probably use -Xc instead. The problem comes from the fact that <stdio.h> is being included twice, once before the lines in the ESQL/C output which contain the #define const, and once after these lines. --- start of generated C file --- #include <sqlhdr.h> #include <sqlca.h> #if !defined(__STDC__) #define const #endif #line 1 "dbdimp.ec" [...] Further, because you are not using one of the -X[a|c] flags, __STDC__ is not defined. For the first run through <stdio.h>, const is left untouched, but for the second, the compiler does not see any of the const keywords. Hence, the prototypes for the functions getopt and getsubopt have magically changed. Ugh!!!! I'm not even going to try and defend the code emitted by the ESQL/C compiler. The const stuff should be handled inside <sqlhdr.h>, not in every file. Nevertheless, we have to live with what we get, and the workaround is clear -- and documented in Makefile.PL, though I note I have a spelling mistake in one of the comments. Ensure that __STDC__ is defined by the compiler. The next version of DBD::Informix has a simple ESQL/C test program which ensures that things are setup OK, and I'll add a test for __STDC__ into that. There are too many different ways in which things fail because the basic Informix setup isn't quite correct.
