As previously posted by Chris Gagnon, I have found the reason his compilier
complains about "_table" and "name" being multiply defined. Im running into
the same trouble. The compiler I am using is VC++ 7.1
When using the create macro, according to the preprocessor, it expands to
something like this...
////////////////////////////
...
struct stock
{
....
static const char *names[];
static const char *_table;
.....
};
const char *stock::names[] = { "item" , "num" , "weight" , "price" , "date"};
const char *stock::_table = "stock" ;
...
//////////////////////////////
When this is put in a header file, then every where you include that header
its gonna try to redefine "names" and "_table".
At least this is my understanding of what is wrong. So i guess the question
is, can "sql_create_#" be used in a header file and be included every where
you need it?
I had to modify the custom.pl script to not init these members. Instead I am
initializing them in my code manually in a global area. Does this seem like
a logical solution? Just curious.
