First, "postgres_fe.h" was invented to be the first file included by client programs *within* the PostgreSQL source tree *only*. (Remember we annoyed the PHP folks over this but forced them to fix it.) Second, and more importantly, it includes c.h, which has namespace problems written all over it. I think postgres_fe.h should not be included by libpq++ at all. The only thing I recall it needing is the namespace configure test, which it already gets via pg_config.h. -- Peter Eisentraut [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
