Subject: [HACKERS] Small changes to facilitate Win32 port


> Hi there.  I'm yet another developer working full-time on a native windows
> port.  I'm also working closely with Jan Wieck (next office).  I know
there is
> a reluctance to modify the code base to support native win32, and I
realize
> that no decision has yet been made.  However, ...
>
> A few of the identifier names used in postgres collide with WIN32 or MFC
names.
>  To keep my working copy of the code as close to the released source as
> possible, I do have some superficial changes that I would like to put in
the
> code base early:
>
> 1.  Rename to avoid structures/functions with same name:
> a.  PROC => PGPROC
> b.  GetUserName() => GetUserNameFromId()
> c.  GetCurrentTime() => GetCurrentDateTime()
>
> 2.  Add _P to the following lex/yacc tokens to avoid collisions
> CONST, CHAR, DELETE, FLOAT, GROUP, IN, OUT
>
> 3.  Rename two local macros
> a.  MEM_FREE => MEM_FREE_IT in backend/utils/hash/dynahash.c
> b.  IGNORE => IGNORE_TOK in include/utils/datetime.h &
> backend/utils/adt/datetime.c
