Milen, here your fist TIP: Do not use Drugs (Microsoft), and you will be

(I'll ignore the sensible advice to "not feed the trolls".)

- The recommended way to build pgAdmin for Windows is by using VS 2005
(http://www.pgadmin.org/download/source.php).

It certainly is - largely because it's about the best development environment out there. It doesn't matter what you think of Microsoft, Visual Studio is an excellent environment for development and debugging - far better in my view than Eclipse, Kdevelop or XCode.

Anyway, I've just committed another refactoring patch which also removes the solution folders. I was echoing the entire source tree in the solution explorer which was looking very useful, but unfortunately I think we'll have to do without that :-(

That said - could you help me with advice how to set up a development
environment for building pgAdmin for windows using MinGW for example?
Or using cross-compilation?

Patches to support Mingw (again - it got broken years back) are welcome.

BTW - there's more refactoring coming up - you might want to hold off on any complex merges. I'm trying to get this all done as quickly as possible.

Regards, Dave.
