Hello,
I happened to find a trivial bug of ECPG while experimenting with 9.3 beta
2. Please find attached the patch to fix this. This is not specific to
9.3. Could you commit and backport this?
[Bug description]
Running "ecpg c:\command\a.pgc" produces the following line in a.c:
#line 1 "c:\command\a.pgc"
Then, compiling the resulting a.c with Visual Studio (cl.exe) issues the
warning:
a.c(8) : warning C4129: 'c' : unrecognized character escape sequence
This is because ecpg doesn't escape \ in the #line string.
[How to fix]
Escape \ in the input file name like this:
#line 1 "c:\\command\\a.pgc"
This is necessary not only on Windows but also on UNIX/Linux. For your
information, running "gcc -E di\\r/a.c" escapes \ and outputs the line:
# 1 "di\\r/a.c"
