However, if you need something to keep yourself amused (unless I can persuade you to come help out with psqlODBC :-) ), we would be interested in patches that allow us to use Microsoft's compiler as an alternative to gcc. 


It's interesting to know it built fairly easily though...


What would be of interest to me, would be to know if there is an actual
gain to compiling with the Microsoft compiler. I understand the maintenance issues but if the Microsoft compiler gives us 25% better 
performance on Win32 then Mingw...

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake






Regards, Dave.
