Thread: Tutorial on How to Compile PostgreSQL 9.5 for Windows 64bit

Hi Everybody,

I have posted a video tutorial on How to Compile PostgreSQL 9.5 for Windows 64bit
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BJmuZT5IPE

It was quite difficult for me to figure it out, so hopefully it will make life easier for
the next guy (or gal).

Yes, no doubt. Can we get this linked somewhere so we don't lose it?

Here would be fine, no?
https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Detailed_installation_guides
There is a section for Windows.

Yeah probably. I don't have wiki editing privs though.

A community account should be enough, but never mind, I have added it.

Very helpful, thanks.

Is there any tutorial on how to compile extensions for Windows?

There are many interesting extensions where no Windows binaries are available, so it would be really helpful if I could
compilethem myself.

I'm actually trying to figure those things out, and once I do
(hopefully) I plan to post similar tutorials.

My top two extensions of interest are plv8 and tds_fdw.

do note, 9.6 is still a early beta, and is probably 6 months from
feature complete and a year+ from release.
