Re: pqlib in c++: PQconnectStart PQconnectPoll

ok thanx:)

 ... here's the source ... can u tell me whats wrong? (the purpose of this
function is to allow for thread safety on the connection, and allow for
cancellation if the connection takes too long)

BTW ...

- coninfo is "host=localhost port=5432 dbname=testdb user=localuser
password=localpassword"
- I am using VC++ and compiling a windows execuatble ...

PGconn* PQconnectStartCS(const char* coninfo,LPCRITICAL_SECTION lpcs,bool*
lpcancel,int* lppge){
    int& pge = *lppge;
    bool& cancel = *lpcancel;
    bool keepon = true;
    PGconn* pr = 0;
    pge = 0;
    EnterCriticalSection(lpcs);
    pr = PQconnectStart(coninfo);

    while (!killthread(&cancel) && keepon){
        switch(pge = PQconnectPoll(pr)){
        case PGRES_POLLING_FAILED:
            keepon = false;
            break;
        case PGRES_POLLING_OK:
            pge = 0;
            keepon = false;
            break;
        default:
            break;
        };
        if (keepon)
            Sleep(1);
    };

    LeaveCriticalSection(lpcs);
    if (!pge && pr){
        switch(pge = PQstatus(pr)){
        case CONNECTION_OK:
            pge = 0;
            break;
        };
    };
    return pr;
};
