Re: OSX ?

Hi,
I 've tried to compile psqlODBC from ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/
odbc/versions/src/psqlodbc-08.01.0101.tar.gz with no success... On
OSX (tiger)...

Hm, it fails for me too. I'm not sure if it's OS X's fault or
psqlodbc's fault, but the problem seems to be here:

pgapifunc.h declares PGAPI_BindParameter as taking

SQLUINTEGER cbColDef,
...
SQLINTEGER cbValueMax,
SQLINTEGER *pcbValue);

The actual definition of PGAPI_BindParameter in bind.c uses different
typedefs:

UDWORD cbColDef,
...
SDWORD cbValueMax,
SDWORD * pcbValue)

Darwin's /usr/include/sqltypes.h has

/*
* API declaration data types
*/
typedef signed int SQLINTEGER;
typedef unsigned int SQLUINTEGER;

/*
* SQL portable types for C
*/
typedef long int SDWORD;
typedef unsigned long int UDWORD;

and gcc is entirely within its rights to complain that "int" != "long int".

*Somebody* is not on the right page here. I would tend to fault
psqlodbc for inconsistent declarations, but if it works on other
platforms (as it seems to) maybe there is a general convention
that SQLINTEGER == SDWORD etc? If so, Apple didn't get the word.
