Обсуждение: Small syntax error in fmgr.h

Hello PostgreSQL developers,

https://launchpad.net/bugs/458020 reports a small syntax error in
./src/include/fmgr.h:338:

  extern int no_such_variable

The trailing semicolon is missing:

 "I had to make the changes in the attached patch file in order to use
 the PG_MODULE_MAGIC macro.

 From a quick scan it looks as though there may also be a similar
 problem with PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1 also on line 329.
 "

Thanks,

Martin

This is not a bug.  You are supposed to write a semicolon after the
call of PG_MODULE_MAGIC.  If we put a semicolon into the macro value,
it would break every single correct usage (at least under compilers
that are picky about empty statements outside functions).

The same goes for PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1.

The guy forgot to add a trailing semicolon on the line where he uses the
macro.  This is not our bug.
