Thanks, but I mention some other problem -
sequence CC=g++AC_CHECK_LIB(pq, PQexec)
is espanded by autoconf into
... main(){ PQexec(); } ...
that can't be compiled by g++,
instead
... main(){ PGconn *conn; const char *query; PQexec(conn,query); }
is there a way to correct this problem or I need to rewrite
autoconf macros?
configure:2672: checking for PQexec in -lpq
configure:2691: g++ -o conftest -g -O2 conftest.c -lpq
-L/usr/local/pgsql/lib 1>&5
configure:2688: Undefined symbol `PQexec(void)' referenced from text segment
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure: failed program was:
#line 2680 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
/* Override any gcc2 internal prototype to avoid an error. */
/* We use char because int might match the return type of a gcc2 builtin and then its argument prototype would still
apply. */
char PQexec();
int main() {
PQexec()
; return 0; }
