Ecpg pretty prints my code causing compile errors.

ie. code to compile:

EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
char bound_waiting_state =
static_cast<char>(Processor::waiting);
EXEC SQL END DECLARE SECTION;

turns into:

/* exec sql begin declare section */
#line 90 "Schedule.pgcc"
char bound_waiting_state = static_cast < char > ( Processor : :
waiting ) ;
/* exec sql end declare section */
#line 93 "Schedule.pgcc"

The scope operator becomes space padded and compiler barfs.

Work around is to initialise variables outside of declare section.

Mark Pether.

PostgreSQL 7.3 Documentation

Chapter 4. ECPG - Embedded SQL in C
This chapter describes the embedded SQL package for PostgreSQL. It works
with C and *C++.* It was written by Linus Tolke (<linus (AT) epact (DOT) se

Sorry, I didn't know the docs say that. Actually we did add some C++
stuff, so if you can send me a list of what doesn't work I will add this
to the ecpg todo list, but I wouldn't say we guarantee that all C++
constructs work with ecpg.
