Re: Builing C libs for 7.3.4 on XP Professional

SLoa,

Thanks, this helps. What I did was manually copied the pg_config.h.win32 to
pg_config. Then I also edited the win32.mak in interfaces\libpq to include
in the CCPOPTS the include directory for my Visual C++ 6.0. But now I get
the following error running "nmake /f win32.mak" in src:

C:\PG\POSTGR~2.4\src>nmake /f win32.mak

cd include
if not exist pg_config.h copy pg_config.h.win32 pg_config.h
cd ..
cd interfaces\libpq
nmake /f win32.mak

How do I recover from the missing 'winver.h'? Do I maybe need to change
another win32.mak to add the Visual C++ 6.0 Include directory?

Thank you so much for your help!

Regards,

Paul

What kind of link? Please notice that (native) windows applications (here,
nmake) do not understand some cygwin links (i.e. "pg_config.h ->
/usr/src/postgresql-7.3.4/src/include/pg_config.h.win32"), especially those
that involve cygwin mounts.

Actually reading win32.mak one finds out that there is a command line set:

" cd include
if not exist pg_config.h copy pg_config.h.win32 pg_config.h "

that should solve your problem. In fact, what win.h did you copy for
pg_config.h?
