Thread: Using libpq 8.4 with PostgreSQL 9.1
I can't compile the libpq source code that came with ver 9.1 with Borlands C++ Compiler (bcc32.exe). I get lots of errors. I can compile the libpq source code that came with ver 8.4. Can I link my programs with ver 8.4 libpq.dll and run them with ver 9.1 of the postgreSQL server? Thanks, Lynn

Can you show us the errors so we can fix the compile? -- Bruce Momjian <bruce@momjian.us> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + It's impossible for everything to be true. +
Hi Bruce, I attempted to compile libpq with two different versions of the Borland (Embarcadero) bcc32 compiler. The free version of bcc32.exe (ver 5.5.1) produces the following output: MAKE Version 5.2 Copyright (c) 1987, 2000 Borland Building the Win32 DLL and Static Library...
