Re: [PATCHES] psql patches for win32
Patch applied. Thanks. --- Christoph Dalitz wrote: Hello Bruce, here are the patches for psql on Win32: psql4win32.patch - changes in the psql source code psql-ref.patch- changes in the documentation psql-ref.sgml (for new builtin variable WIN32_CONSOLE) To apply them use patch -p 1 in the root directory of the postgres source directory. If you are not the right adressee for these patches, please let me know whom I can send them instead. These patches fix the following problems of psql on Win32 (all changes only have effect #ifdef WIN32): a) Problem: Static library libpq.a did not work Solution: Added WSAStartup() in fe-connect.c b) Problem: Secret Password was echoed by psql Solution: Password echoing disabled in sprompt.c c) Problem: 8bit characters were displayed/interpreted wrong in psql This is due to the fact that the Win32 console uses a different encoding than the rest of the Windows system Solution: Introduced a new psql variable WIN32_CONSOLE When set with \set WIN32_console, the function OemToChar() is applied after reading input and CharToOem() before displaying Output Christoph Dalitz PS: How was your talk at LinuxTag?
