I can't answer this right now. It's been a while since I stopped "struggling" with cygwin postgresql. But, yes, since your pltcl.dll reports (and test cases) there has been allot of while (SIC!). It's now cygwin1.dll 1.5.x, postgresql 7.3.4 and the september 2003 version of tcl/tk. Anyway, the pltcl.dll issues didn't apply to libpgtcl.dll.

SLao,

I was not able to successfully build libpgtcl.dll with postgres 7.3.4,
cygwin 1.5.5-1 and TCL 8.4. I tried your workaround from
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-ports/2001-05/msg00036.php
(substituting tcl84 for tcl80). But the resulting pgtcl.dll (which was
copied to libpgtcl.dll in your instructions) does not load up in the tcl
console. Any suggestions, or is there an updated set of instructions to get
libpgtcl.dll to build?

Regards,

Paul

See attached "patch." Note that it is from Jan 14, 2003 -- hence, the
quotes. You will probably have to fiddle with it to get it to apply.

I never submitted it because I could not get pltcl.dll to work:
