34 | | -Current CVS (after pgindent) compiles and regresses ok on AIX 4.3.2 |
35 | | -using the IBM compiler. It has the following problems: |
36 | | -1. AIX has int8,int16,int32,int64 in /usr/include/inttypes.h |
37 | | ---> configure fails to find snprintf support for int8 (because it |
38 | | -includes stdio.h) |
39 | | -I feel this is an IBM problem. I changed my inttypes.h |
40 | | -2. No AIX in Makefile.shlib --> plpgsql.so is not built / no rule. |
41 | | -a number of other platforms are also missing there |
42 | | -a working rule is often in Makefile.port, but only for a single |
43 | | -object |
44 | | -not multiple, which plpgsql has. |
45 | | -The single object rule in Makefile.aix can be used to make a |
46 | | -plpgsql.so |
47 | | -from libplpgsql.a. I built it manually. |
48 | | -3. libpq++ does not work because xlC does not have the string type/class ? |

| 24 | +It has the following problems: |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +1. AIX has int8,int16,int32,int64 in /usr/include/inttypes.h |
| 27 | +--> configure fails to find snprintf support for int8 |
| 28 | +(because it includes stdio.h) |
| 29 | +I feel this is an IBM problem. I changed my /usr/include/inttypes.h |
| 30 | +Either do that or comment out int8-int32 in src/include/c.h. |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +2. libpq++ does not work because xlC does not have the string and bool classes. |
| 33 | +it does compile/work with gcc |
