Our Makefiles use dlltool and dllwrap to create DLLs. If you used our recommended build method pgxs would do lots of the work for you.


"dllwrap is a tool to build DLLs. It seems to be deprecated in favour of
gcc -shared option, but some projects still use it. SQLite, for example."

Armed with this information, it may be prudent review the DLL build
process in PGXS.

OK, but if we want to get rid of using dllwrap we'd need a complete patch for it. Just changing the definition of the macro without changing the rest isn't going to cut it, I think. But it might well be worth doing.

You're right. And now that I know a little bit more about how to build DLLs
and what's involved I can take a look at this, sometime in the not-too-
distant future.


Until next time, have fun!
