RE : [pgsql-fr-generale] create an extension of postgresql 9 with Visual C++ 2008 express edition

Hello,
I am a computer student in belgium, for my academic project I am working to
an extension of postgresql 9 under win xp, by creating h DLL in Visual C++
2008 - I am new in both environments; To start and understand how does it
works, I tried to compile the example complex.c which is in the
directory /tutorial
of postgresql sources, but unfortunately I have lots of compilation errors
Although I made the various necessary "include ". Please I would like to
know if there could be a kind of tutorial that explains how to develop a DLL
for Postgresql using Visual C + + Express (the necessary config, the
library to include, etc.. ), based on the /tutorial/complex.c ffile for
example.
Thanks you in the advance.

Bonjour,

On parle plutôt français sur cette liste d'habitude :)

To reach an English-speaking forum please consider pgsql-general.

Better try with any contrib first. If possible one that does look like
the extension you're wanting to develop.

This is a little to vague and confusing to be able to offer much
advice. Some copy and paste of attempts and the exact errors would
help. In general, you might want to review this page for ideas of
how to best ask a question to elicit a useful response:

I don't know of anything, but since I don't develop for that
environment, I haven't really dug deep looking for it. Be sure to
review what is in the Wiki, especially the links from the Windows
category:

http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Category:Windows

as well as following the links from the developer tab of the main
PostgreSQL site:
