Promoting the enhanced branch

As any of you who watch pgsql-committers will have seen, I have now
moved the enahnced branch to CVS tip. Specifically, I have:

1) Created a REL-08_01_STABLE branch from CVS tip
2) Moved the REL-07_03_ENHANCED code to CVS tip
3) Bumped the version number to 08.02.0001
4) Standardised filenames and directory names (but not library names) to
reflect that we now only have an ODBC 3.51, Unicode build.
5) Defaulted the ODBC version number to 0x351 in all places (previously
it had different values in different files)
6) updated the Windows installer as appropriate, and introduced a new
version specific element to the path to allow concurrent installation
with 08.01.xxxx.
7) Updated all libnames to psqlodbc35w.(so|lib|dylib|whatever).
8) Updated the release notes.

The code builds as expected on Linux (with unixODBC) and Windows XP with
VC++ 6.0.

Please take a few minutes to checkout the code and ensure everything
looks as it should if you are able.

Thanks, Dave.

Hi Dave.

Addition of some information.

VC6 and VC7 are supported in Windows.
Moreover, Only VC7 supports a Delay Load.
iODBC and unixODBC are supported in Linux.

Preparing environment, it can see soon.
My environment is now confused.:-(

What is that supposed to accomplish? If we're dropping the Unicode/ANSI
dichotomy, I'd rather go back to plain psqlodbc.so for the Unix builds. I'm
not sure about the exact implications on Windows. But in general I think
this will just annoy people if they have to change their configurations for
no apparent reason.

I had the chance to grab this and build it on Fedora Core 4 and Solaris.
Seems to work well.

Is there a planned release date for 08.02.0001?

Thanks,
Alan
