Re: [HACKERS] Another crack at doing a Win32

1. I installed the latest version of Mingw from:
http://www.mingw.org/download.shtml

2. I installed the current snapshot of Postgresql.

3. I tried ./configure -- went fine

4. I tried make clean -- went fine

5. I tried make and hit a few snags.

6. For both:
/postgresql-snapshot/src/backend/utils/float.c
and
/postgresql-snapshot/src/backend/utils/timestamp.c

I had to make this change:
/* for finite() on Solaris */
#ifdef HAVE_IEEEFP_H
#ifndef BUILDING_DLL /* bugbug DRC: ieeefp.h is present but badly
broken on my installation of MINGW */
#include <ieeefp.h>
#endif /* end of bug patch */
#endif

7. For some strange reason, one of the symbolic links did not work
correctly. I did a work-around as follows:
copy .\src\backend\port\sysv_sema.c src\backend\port\pg_sema.c

8. After making those changes, I got the following error:
gcc -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
-Wmissing-declarations initdb.o -L../../../src/interfaces/libpq -lpq
-L../../../src/port -lz -lreadline -lwsock32 -lcrypt -lresolv -lm

Can anyone tell me what is wrong?

(guess) try configuring without readline.

Or compile readline with your Mingw version, or just replace readline.a
with readline.dll in your lib directory.
All works with readline fine.
