OK, I'll throw my hat in the ring... :,) I recommend using Cygwin in -mno-cygwin (aka Mingw) mode for the following reasons: 1. Using Cygwin gcc -mno-cygwin mode produces native Win32 applications (i.e., do not depending on the Cygwin DLL) that are not affected by the Cygwin license. 2. Using Cygwin as the Win32 build environment will facilitate keeping the Unix and Win32 build environments as similar as possible. For example: a. Posix path can be used for both environments b. symlinks can be used for both environments 3. Cygwin provides all the necessary tools (e.g., bison and flex).

While I agree, that those utilities are really fine, the trouble with this bison is that it is version 1.28. pg needs a newer bison version.

I am fairly certain that (in English) this paragraph reads: "if your software needs Cygwin.dll to run (or is static linked to cygwin runtime libraries), it is GPL software." I agree, I think cygwin flex and bison can be used without any licensing issues. We are only concerned with the output of the software generated from non-GPL input (another way of looking at it, do GPL work processors produce only GPL documents?? viral, indeed!).

Basicly this means that if you're linked to cygwin1.dll, you have to release your program under the GPL, else there is no restriction.

Great news!

I'm going to see what I can get started. To the other posters, my understanding of the status: Win32 port compiles but not links. Port generally based on the SRA, not the PeerDirect version, except for the threading support, which was removed. The build environment is MinGW (win32 port of GNU compiling tools i.e. gcc, make, configure, etc.). IIRC the MinGW environment also includes C runtime libraries. The main missing parts are signals and fork/exec. The Microsoft signals can't be used (via source or binary) without introducing a compiling dependency on Microsoft compilers and are incomplete anyways for pg's needs (out of spec handling of integer div/0 for example). Personally I think fork/exec should be easy but signals will be tougher. Does anybody know of a BSD licensed signal implementation that compiles on win32?

Re: [HACKERS] Win32 native port
So far as I'm aware Joerg, we didn't have enough time to get all the Win32 stuff done for 7.4, and it was felt (rightly so) that it wasn't worth holding off on 7.4 to get it in. At the moment, the main developers are doing nothing but fixing bugs in 7.4 as we are now in feature freeze. Once 7.4 final has been released, work will continue on Win32, and I see no reason (since there have been many offers of help) why it wouldn't be done for 7.5. > So, I'd just like to ask the people involved to give a small summary on the > on-going(?) efforts, and possibly an open-points list, and even better, some > hints how to get involved myself(!). > > Questions would be: > - does it compile? > - on which compiler? > - which branch in CVS to use? > - what are the most needed open points? > - is anyone actively working on those? > > ... you get the idea.
