Hi guys, I have a program that I need compile using PostgreSQL 8.4.0 (or later) and it must be able to run on an 8.3.5 based system as well as 8.4.0. I'm using embedded SQL for C and I have the following sequence of statements:
snprintf( stmt, 3000, "SELECT count(*) FROM %s WHERE %s", *table, *where ); EXEC SQL AT :_thisDbConn PREPARE cntstmt FROM :stmt; EXEC SQL AT :_thisDbConn EXECUTE cntstmt INTO :recCount :fnull; . . EXEC SQL DEALLOCATE PREPARE cntstmt; This seems to be ok running on the 8.4.0 system, but when running it on the 8.3.5, it complains that it is an 'Invalid statement name cntstmt' for the deallocation. I then tried to add the 'AT :_thisDbConn' to the DEALLOCATE statement, but ecpg complained that there was no "at" allowed for deallocate. However, looking at the output (the .c file) I noticed that it had generated an apparently correct ECPG_deallocate() call. Manually compiling this and linking the program turned out to be able to run on both the 8.3.5 and the 8.4.0 system without problems. Is this a bug in ecpg or am I doing something wrong ?
