Yes, that's what fixed it. Maybe it's just some versions of Windows/DOS shell? I don't have another version to test on. > set FOO=my dog has fleas > echo %FOO% my dog has fleas > set FOO="something with quotes" > echo %FOO% "something with quotes" The quotes stay part of the string (same for single quotes). So LIBPATH1 became ""C:\Documents and Settings\[...]\src\"interface/libpq/Release" and cl.exe gets each of these as a separate parameter, i.e. C:\Documents and Settings\[etc.] and justly complains about not finding headers, object files, etc. As I said, I don't know much about how Windows makefiles are *supposed* to work, just what was broken on WinXP, SP2, and what fixed it. -- Curran Schiefelbein _______________________________________________ Libpqxx-general mailing list Libpqxx-general@gborg.postgresql.org http://gborg.postgresql.org/mailman/listinfo/libpqxx-general
