Eh, probably not. Most likely, if you check whether one of the functions you care about is in that file, that's good enough. Either all of them will be there or none of them. That may sound unprincipled, but I think in practice it works pretty well, and I think it's basically the autoconf way. You make the checks just sophisticated enough to work on all of the platforms that actually exist, and don't worry about hypothetical platforms where the header file authors conspire to hose you. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
