There will be a new version out there soon. When I am happy with it I will let you know - right now I am dealing with 2 issues - setlocale(LC_ALL,"") doesn't read from the environment on Windows, and the program is possibly not picking up the buffers/connections properly.
Please don't put the version currently out there in CVS - the files won't even be the same - initdb-scripts.h will disappear and there will be a new file called "system_views.sql". There is no urgency about this - until we have a working postgres executable on Windows initdb is useless anyway. My aim has been to have initdb ready when postgres is ready. Of course, I test against Unix all the time to make sure nothing gets broken. cheers andrew ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bruce Momjian" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Andrew Dunstan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: "Postgresql Hackers" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "pgsql-hackers-win32" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, October 09, 2003 9:39 PM Subject: Re: [pgsql-hackers-win32] [HACKERS] initdb > > I have added this URL to the Win32 page, and removed the "initdb C" TODO > item.
