This issue was discussed in the Hackers PostgreSQL mailing list and
discussion could be found in the archive
(http://postgresqlorg.blogspot.com/2008/09/hackers-83-4-vista-mingw-initdb.h
tml).
The solution is to add an additional header file to
postgresql/src/include/libpq/libpq-be.h
and
postgresql/src/interfaces/libpq/libpq-int.h:
â¦
#ifdef ENABLE_SSPI
#define SECURITY_WIN32
#include <ntsecapi.h> <ââ- Add this include
#include <security.h>
#undef SECURITY_WIN32
â¦
Just interesting, will this patch be present in 8.4.x branch of PostgreSQL
sources?
