Problem with including foreign characters in Lex rule
Hi,

I'm hoping that someone might be able to help me with this problem:

I have already added new code to several existing Lex rules to accept the following foreign characters: å ä ö Å Ä Ö æ Æ ø Ø ü Ü ß. The code looks like this:

/*Nathalie Stern, 080121 - Add å ä ö Å Ä Ö æ Æ ø Ø ü Ü ß handling to function*/
<INITIAL>[A-Za-z]+[A-Za-z0-9_\-\xe5\xe4\xf6\xc5\xc4\xd6\xe6\xc6\xf8\xd8\xfc\xdc\xdf]* {
strcpy(ident1, yytext);
strcpy(latestIdent, yytext);
BEGIN SECID1;
}

Everything compiles and runs fine until I try to include the same character handling in the first part of a rule which checks the first letter of a word being sent in (i.e. in the [A-Za-z]+ part) For some reason, my compiler (Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0) doesn't like it and throws the following error:

Compiling...
lex.tracks.c
Linking...
LINK : warning LNK4098: defaultlib "LIBC" conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library
tracks1.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _tracksMain
.\Debug\simtrac_pre_.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
Error executing link.exe.

simtrac_pre_.exe - 2 error(s), 1 warning(s)

Does anyone have any idea why this happens? I have tried running the clean commando and rebuild and relink all files but I still get the exact same error.
Any thoughts on this would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Nathalie

drop_foreign_table

DROP FOREIGN 
TABLE(7)					  PostgreSQL 9.2.7 Documentation				     DROP FOREIGN TABLE(7)

NAME

       DROP_FOREIGN_TABLE - remove a foreign table

SYNOPSIS

       DROP FOREIGN TABLE [ IF EXISTS ] name [, ...] [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]

DESCRIPTION

       DROP FOREIGN TABLE removes a foreign table. Only the owner of a foreign table can remove it.

PARAMETERS

       IF EXISTS
	   Do not throw an error if the foreign table does not exist. A notice is issued in this case.

       name
	   The name (optionally schema-qualified) of the foreign table to drop.

       CASCADE
	   Automatically drop objects that depend on the foreign table (such as views).

       RESTRICT
	   Refuse to drop the foreign table if any objects depend on it. This is the default.

EXAMPLES

       To destroy two foreign tables, films and distributors:

	   DROP FOREIGN TABLE films, distributors;

COMPATIBILITY

       This command conforms to the ISO/IEC 9075-9 (SQL/MED), except that the standard only allows one foreign table to be dropped per command,
       and apart from the IF EXISTS option, which is a PostgreSQL extension.

SEE ALSO

       ALTER FOREIGN TABLE (ALTER_FOREIGN_TABLE(7)), CREATE FOREIGN TABLE (CREATE_FOREIGN_TABLE(7))

PostgreSQL 9.2.7						    2014-02-17						     DROP FOREIGN TABLE(7)
