Thread: readline doubt with postgresql (on HP-UX)
Hello all,
I'm trying to build postgresql on PA-RISC.
By default it took readline libreary as "shared".
But i tried to compile postgresql with STATIC readline library.
It doesn't take the static readline(libreadline.a), it took libreadline.sl(shared library).
My Q is does postgresql take only the shared readline library?
if so, i want to have install readline library as shared in my machine before stating postgresql.
Am i correct?
Plz reply asap.
Advance thanks.
Regards,

The HP-UX linker, like most linkers, will prefer a shared library to a static one unless you are linking the whole program statically. Easy workarounds are to either install the shared readline library, or else build readline only as a static library, and link against that. You'd have to provide some details of what you are doing (HP-UX version, compiler you're using, configure options) for anyone to fully understand what you're doing. Regards, Giles
Hello Lean, Thanks for your response. I'll try. and get back to you once i done. FYI, i'm using HP-UX-11.11(PA-RISC) gcc- compiler configure options - krb5 and ssl Regards, -Kanchana > > kanchana writes: > > > I'm trying to build postgresql on PA-RISC.=20 > > By default it took readline libreary as "shared". > > The HP-UX linker, like most linkers, will prefer a shared library to > a static one unless you are linking the whole program statically. > > Easy workarounds are to either install the shared readline library, > or else build readline only as a static library, and link against > that. > > You'd have to provide some details of what you are doing (HP-UX > version, compiler you're using, configure options) for anyone > to fully understand what you're doing. > > Regards, > > Giles > > ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- > TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate > subscribe-nomail command to majordomo@postgresql.org so that your > message can get through to the mailing list cleanly >
