Thread: psqlodbc compilation and deployment on windows
Hello,
1) I want to compile psql-odbc on windows. I am doing it through MinCW
But when I run ./configure I get following error
error: no suitable ODBC driver manager found.
I also tried to download iODBC for windows but I could not get anything. Could you please help me or give me some pointers about how to proceed.
2) Now if i could compile psql-odbc on windows to get the driver binaries then how can i install that driver on machine (without msi installer)? .
Which registry entries i am suppose to do? Also what other suff is needed?
3) I want to configure system DSN entry programmatically. I tried to use odbcconf.exe but somehow it does not work for me. Could you please suggest me some way to configure DSN entry for PostgreSQL odbc driver programmatically
Thanks
Shri

I'm sorry I don't use this environment so I cant help you. I try shot to the dark. Do you specify ./configure --with-iodbc when you installed iODBC? > 2) Now if i could compile psql-odbc on windows to get the driver > binaries then how can i install that driver on machine (without msi > installer)? . > Which registry entries i am suppose to do? Also what other suff is needed? There is usually psqlodbc.reg in source archive. You have to edit path to drivers and merge the reg file into registry. > 3) I want to configure system DSN entry programmatically. I tried to > use odbcconf.exe but somehow it does not work for me. Could you please Somehow we can't help you. Maybe if you specify the problem better we could be able to help you. What psqlODBC version do you use? I add some feature to support odbcconf since 08.01.010X (I'm not sure X > 4). > suggest me some way to configure DSN entry for PostgreSQL odbc driver > programmatically You can find the solution here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/odbc/htm/odbcinstaller_dll_api_reference.asp Regards, Luf
