Обсуждение: Xlib.h and pgconnection.h

Don't know whether this has been reported yet, as search of mailinglists
didn't find anything,
and it is also unclear whether this is a bug in PostgresQL headers or in
X11 headers (I suppose latter),
anyway:

<libpq++/pgconnection.h> declares a method Status() for PgConnection
class.
<Xlib.h> defines #define Status int for the return type of most X11 API
functions.

So if you first include <Xlib.h> and then <libpg++.h> in your
application program,
you get a compile error. The workaround is clear: first include
libpq++.h, then the
appropriate X11 headers, but this should be described at least in the
documentation.
