BUG #3623: initialisation probl.

The following bug has been logged online:

Bug reference: 3623
Logged by: Guenter Abraham
Email address: abraham(at)itbb(dot)de
PostgreSQL version: 8.2
Operating system: winxp
Description: initialisation probl.
Details:

formerly stable programs being generated by ecpg suddenly terminates while
initialization at 0xc0000022

this small program demonstrates the effect:

///-- [
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc,char *argv[]) {
printf("tach\n");
return 0;
}

#ifdef ABRAUCH
#include "ecpglib.h"
void nothing(void)
{ ECPGtrans(__LINE__, NULL, "commit");}
#endif

/// -- ]

it terminates while initialization if ABRAUCH is defined. the function
"nothing" is NOT called!!

I'm using mingw:

gcc -v [:Reading specs from
d:/programme/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/3.4.2/specs
Configured with: ../gcc/configure --with-gcc --with-gnu-ld --with-gnu-as

--enable-libstdcxx-debug
Thread model: win32
gcc version 3.4.2 (mingw-special)
]

I use this generating script [
#
gcc -mno-cygwin -g -c -Wall \ -Id:/Programme/PostgreSQL/8.2/include tst.cc
gcc -g -o tst1.exe tst.o \
D:/lib/libecpg.dll \
-lstdc++
#
gcc -mno-cygwin -DABRAUCH= -g -c -Wall \
-Id:/Programme/PostgreSQL/8.2/include tst.cc
gcc -g -o tst2.exe tst.o \
D:/lib/libecpg.dll \
-lstdc++
]

the effect occures also at pg vers 8.1

with kind regards guenter
