Thread: PostgreSQL/Win32 sqltypes.h conflict
It appears PostgreSQL's sqltypes.h conflicts with the Win32 version:
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-12/msg00211.html
Does anyone have any ideas on the best way to solve this problem?
Thanks,
Jason

Maybe I'm being a little simple-minded, but would it be a good idea to
rename postgres's file to pg_sqltypes.h ? A pg_ prefix in front of
generically-named files would probably save a lot of similar future
headaches too (and not just with win32).

TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to majordomo@postgresql.org
This can probably be handled by playing with the path too, although i'm not sure what's the best approach.

[...] As win32api libraries and headers are somehow "magic" in cygwin's case, being hardcoded in gcc's specs, the easiest way wouldbe to alter the "--includedir" option to the configure command for the cygwin distro, to "--includedir=/usr/include/postgresql"or similar.
