It's just like any other C/C++ code mixing. You must make sure that any C-only headers are included within an `extern "C"' block, and declare any functions that'll be accessed via dlopen() etc as 'extern "C"' too. You may only use POD types, arrays of POD types, and structs of POD types (with no methods) in calls to/from C code. In other words, all PostgreSQL must see is plain C code, but your 'extern "C"' functions may call C++ methods and work with C++ objects internally. There's lots more information about this on the Internet. Just look for generic resources on calling C from C++ and vice versa. (I don't *think* there are any issues with libstdc++, though you'd probably have to make sure that no other program linked into Pg brings in a different version of libstdc++.) -- Craig Ringer -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
