Prerequisites

Because an ecpg application is written in C, you will need a C compiler, the GNU make utility, and the ecpg preprocessor and library on your system before you can try the examples in this chapter.

The makefile for this chapter follows:

 1 INCLUDES = -I$(shell pg_config --includedir)
 2
 3 LIBPATH  = -L $(shell pg_config --libdir)
 4
 5 CFLAGS    += $(INCLUDES) -g
 6 LDFLAGS   += -g
 7 LDLIBS    += $(LIBPATH) -lecpg -lpq
 8 ECPGFLAGS += -c $(INCLUDES)
 9 ECPG       = ecpg
10
11 .SUFFIXES: .pgc
12
13 .pgc.c:
14         $(ECPG) $(ECPGFLAGS) $?
15
16 ALL  = client1a client1b client2a client2b client2c
17 ALL += client3a client3b client3c client3d client3e client3f
18 ALL += client4.pgc
19
20 all: $(ALL)
