Thread: libpq only WinXP?

libpq only WinXP?

From

Hello,
 
i setup a little project to access a postgres database using libbq from a WinXP system. I tried the programm on a WinME installation and it crashes. I have not much time, so i did not verify if it was a bug in my program or if libpq will not work on systems like WinME or 98.
 
I have noticed that Postgres can run unter the old winsystems only in a CygWin Box. Is that also true for the interface libpq? The postgres server is running under a linux box.
 
Thanks for your help
 
Henning

libpq itself *should* work on WinME and 98.
