Building of the backend under Visual Studio is not supported - it
requires mingw gcc.

You can build libpq.dll and psql.exe only from VS.

Open a command prompt with the Visual Studio environment set up (generally
Start Menu -> Programs -> Visual Studio -> VS Tools -> VS Command Line).

Go to the src\interfaces\libpq directory inside the postgres distribution.

Run "nmake /f Makefile.win32 [options]".

Available options are documented in Makefile.win32.

If you run into compiler or link errors relating to
rename/unlink/pgrename/pgunlink functions, you may wish to try using the
most recent CVS snapshot, or read the recent "libpq build problem with
<io.h> on MS VC++" thread from this mailing list.

Hope this helps.
