Hi,

Sure there is interest in building with VS, at least i would. VS has great
debugging suport, i
mean the IDE. Would be nice to build Postgresql and psqlODBC under one VS
project.
I wonder if you could share your VS project and patch to do a complete
building?

thanks,

Alexander

Assunto: [pgsql-hackers-win32] Build with Visual Studio & MSVC

Just for fun, I went through PostgreSQL 8.1 and did a complete build using
Microsoft's C and the latest Visual Studio.
With a few minor tweaks, everything compiled with no errors.

My assumption is that because PostgreSQL is a UNIX/Linux-centric project
(and gcc/gdb centric), this really isn't of much interest to anyone.
So other than this e-mail, I don't plan to do anything with this except for
my own amusement.

If I'm wrong, and there is some real interest in supporting MSVC, let me
know, and I'll put some work into cleaning it up and making patches out of
it, etc.
