Hi!

We are in the process of moving our development environment

to visual studio 2008 and as a part of that process I tried to build

our postgresql extended UDT in that environment. I ran into typedef

redefinition error because visual studio 2008 header file crtdefs.h

typedef errcode as an int whereas postgres header files (elog.h)
defines

a function by the same name. Following is the error I got:

\\aisak\8.3\include\server\utils/elog.h(105) : error C2365: 'errcode' :
redefinition; previous definition was 'typedef'

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio
9.0\VC\INCLUDE\crtdefs.h(548) : see declaration of 'errcode'

Has anyone else run into this? Any ideas how to handle it?

Thanks,

Brijesh
