Fw: make errors building libpqdll.lib - Mailing list pgsql-cygwin

I tried building the postgres libs on another machine that doesn't have the
Microsoft SDK update.  Still having problems.  If I use the DLL it still
cant find PQescapeString during linking.  If I use the static library, it
compiles and links without error, but then has all sorts of problems and
crashes.

So any ideas?  Or could someone send me a working set of dll / lib files.
Someone has to have them with all the cygwin postgres users out there.

Everything else so far seems to work as long as I don't use PQescapeString.
(I just comment it out, and it compiles / links fine!)

I can connect, get a result set, and disconnect without error.  (haven't
written the code to process the result set yet, but I will soon).

Thanks again for the help
Rob.
