+#ifdef EXEC_BACKEND + if (!CloseHandle(UsedShmemSegID)) + elog(LOG, "could not close handle to shared memory: error code %lu", GetLastError()); +#endif I am pretty sure that you would want a WIN32 block here, not EXEC_BACKEND as the latter can be used on non-Windows platforms as well to emulate Windows behavior. -- Michael -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
