Hi, As the Subject line says, all I am looking to do is to make the libraries so I can write some C/C++ postgresql client programs under Cygwin (under Win98) using the GNU C/C++ compilers. I guess I could use ODBC and MSVC++, but I just don't want to get stuck in a rut. I do not need to build any of the server components, so I was hoping that the "configure" script would be smart enough to produce make files that will make the rest of the package with the necessary client libraries; however, it was clear as I was monitoring the "make" output that I either need other libraries or I need to restrict my "configure" options further. The make encountered problems when it started to compile "dllinit.c": dllinit.c:49: warning: no previous prototype for '_cygwin_dll_entry' dllinit.c:49: warning: no previous prototype for '_cygwin_noncygwin_dll_entry' This either caused or was caused by the dlltool to fail with the port/SUBSYS.o: dlltool: port/SUBSYS.o: no symbols I am guessing it was caused by an incomplete SUBSYS.o object created from compiling src/backend/port/dynloader.c... but I have not taken a detailed look. I am hoping that someone can point me in the right direction or tell me what is missing. Do I have the right package? I seem to recall that there was some splitting up of the package into 3 parts: client-only, server-only and common... but I may be mixing that recollection with something else. TIA, Frank Shim
