Hi Philipp,
many thanks for your help. Unfortunately, after I've downloaded both
luasql-postgres-2.3.0.1-1.rockspec and luasql-postgres-2.3.0.1-1.src.rock
files and used
luarocks install luasql-postgres-2.3.0.1-1.src.rock PGSQL_DIR="C:\Program
Files\PostgreSQL\9.3"
I'm now stuck with the following error:
..switching to build mode.
Error: could not fetch rock file: file not found:
luasql-postgres-2.3.0.1-1.src.rock
I've tried several commands (luarocks --from="C:\Program
Files\Osmose\Lua\5.1\rocks\luasql" install
luasql-postgres-2.3.0.1-1.src.rock PGSQL_DIR="C:\Program
Files\PostgreSQL\9.3", also luarocks
--server=https://github.com/siffiejoe/lua-rockspecs/ install
luasql-postgres-2.3.0.1-1.rockspec PGSQL_DIR="C:\Program
Files\PostgreSQL\9.3), but I always obtain the same error (also with the
.rockspec).
I don't know if the issue is related, but using "luarocks list" I don't
see older rocks already installed with an former luarock version (2.0.2)
in the list.
Btw, thanks for the type on Mingw, I'll look into that!
Cheers,
Alex

I've uploaded a modified rockspec (and a source rock) to my Github
account[1]. You can install the modified version by downloading either
one and running:
luarocks install luasql-postgres-2.3.0.1-1.rockspec
PGSQL_DIR="C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.3"
(requires `git` command), or:
luarocks install luasql-postgres-2.3.0.1-1.src.rock
PGSQL_DIR="C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.3"
I did _not_ run any test code! I only checked that it compiles on Linux
using GCC, but if that variable length array was the only problem, it
should compile with Visual C as well.
That said, if you keep playing with Lua modules, you will sooner or
later encounter one that intentionally uses C99 features. People are
getting tired of sticking to a 24 year old standard for Microsoft's
sake. So you may want to start looking for a better C compiler (MinGW is
the only one besides Visual C that is supported by LuaRocks on Windows;
other compilers may require some fiddling) ...

Good luck!
