This looks to be a long long int literal. That's only specified in the C99 standard, as well as GNU C. It may very well not be a problem in practice, but I'm told that some very esoteric compilers could baulk at things like that. http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Long-Long.html -- Peter Geoghegan http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training and Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
