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

Hello all,

I'm running into some sort of error building libpq on my machine.  I change
to /src and run nmake -f win32.mak as directed, but get output showing
warning messages.  OK fine, warnings are not errors..  BUT the libpqdll.lib
does not have an entry for PQescapeString..  Which causes the following
error in my project:

error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _PQescapeString
fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

If I comment out PQescapeString, the project compiles fine.  Other postgres
functions seem to be available and work when called.  Is this a bug in the
win32 build of libpq?  Or is something going wrong on my machine.

Either way, all I need is the libpqdll.lib, libpq-fe.h, and libpq.dll
files..  If someone else has them for postgres 7.2 already and could send
them to me, it would save some time.  Help solving the issue so I can build
my own libpq.dll would also be greatly appreciated.

I'm using VC++ Enterprise Edition, with the August 2001 Edition Microsoft
SDK update.

Thanks for the help
Rob
