No problem Joel, I understand your point.
There are different levels of suggestions. Sometimes they come with
resolutions and sometimes they don't. But the absence of a solution
doesn't mean suggestions or constructive criticism shouldn't be offered.
I will freely admit that I don't have a good alternative for a
different method to handle ssqls. That is clearly a tough problem.
My suggestion for the author is to try to find a solution for ssqls
that don't involve macros. If that can be done items #1 (macros are
tough to debug), #2 (no need for a perl script to generate the
macros), and #3 (the MYSQLPP_SSQLS_NO_STATICS should not be needed),
and #4 (no need for a workaround to #1) should go away.
Warren is clearly one of the experts and his help has been
appreciated. The intent was not to aggravate him or any other mysql+
+ developer. I hope that's understood. I'll make an effort to be
gentler with suggestions and criticisms.
Thanks,
Graham
