[HACKERS] Another crack at doing a Win32 build under MINGW

[Dann Corbit]

Title: Message

1.  I installed the latest version of Mingw from:

http://www.mingw.org/download.shtml

 

2.  I installed the current snapshot of Postgresql.

 

3.  I tried ./configure -- went fine

 

4.  I tried make clean -- went fine

 

5.  I tried make and hit a few snags.

 

6.  For both:

/postgresql-snapshot/src/backend/utils/float.c

and

/postgresql-snapshot/src/backend/utils/timestamp.c

 

I had to make this change:

/* for finite() on Solaris */
#ifdef HAVE_IEEEFP_H
#ifndef BUILDING_DLL  /* bugbug DRC: ieeefp.h is present but badly broken on my installation of MINGW */
#include <ieeefp.h>
#endif /* end of bug patch */
#endif

7.  For some strange reason, one of the symbolic links did not work correctly.  I did a work-around as follows:

copy .\src\backend\port\sysv_sema.c src\backend\port\pg_sema.c

 

8.  After making those changes, I got the following error:

gcc -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations initdb.o -L../../../src/interfaces/libpq -lpq -L../../../src/port   -lz -lreadline -lwsock32 -lcrypt -lresolv -lm  -lpgport -lws2_32 -o initdb

Can anyone tell me what is wrong?
