Re: PostgreSQL 7.1.2-3

Guy,

In the future, please post to pgsql-cygwin(at)postgresql(dot)org instead of
sending private email so others can benefit too.

Use the following:

$ # save the attachment in /tmp
$ # cd to the top of the PostgreSQL source tree
$ patch </tmp/pgrl.patch
$ autoconf
$ configure ...
$ make
$ make install

But, why don't you just download the PostgreSQL source from a Cygwin
mirror? It already has this patch applied.

My pre-built binary is configured with --with-CXX but not --enable-odbc.

Hmm...I would not recommend taking pieces of the CVS tip and replacing
the corresponding files in the 7.1.2 tree. However, the latest CVS
should compile but I haven't tried in a while.
