  1. Error trying to compile a simple C trigger

    Marco Nenciarini <marco.nenciarini@2ndquadrant.it> — 2012-03-20T10:53:06Z

    I was trying to compile orafce on the current master and it yield
an error at line

 tupdesc = trigdata->tg_relation->rd_att;

alert.c: In function ‘dbms_alert_defered_signal’:
alert.c:839:33: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
make: *** [alert.o] Error 1

I've also tried the example at

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/static/trigger-example.html

and the result is exactly the same.

trigtest.c: In function ‘trigf’:
trigtest.c:44:36: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
make: *** [trigtest.o] Error 1

Regards,
Marco

I'd say this is an unintended consequence of a pgrminclude run. Try adding this:

#include "access/tupdesc.h"

It doesn't work. The error is stil the same.

    It seems that compiler is complain about "Relation" structure, can you
please try adding the following in trigtest.c i.e.

#include "utils/rel.h"

Thanks ... it seems we need these fixes (each of them backpatched to a
different set of releases).
