Re: New Access Method

Ok, so I am using GCC 3.2 as a compiler, and the following is the error
message:

make[4]: Entering directory
`/c/dev/postgres/pgsql_tip/src/backend/access/mdim'
gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Winline
-Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wendif-labels -fno-strict-aliasing -g
-I../../../../src/include -I./src/include/port/win32 -DEXEC_BACKEND
"-I../../../../src/include/port/win32" -DBUILDING_DLL -c -o mdim.o mdim.c

make[4]: *** [mdim.o] Error 3
make[4]: Target `SUBSYS.o' not remade because of errors.
make[4]: Leaving directory
`/c/dev/postgres/pgsql_tip/src/backend/access/mdim'
make[3]: *** [mdim-recursive] Error 2

If I choose the GIST development, do you know of any documentation which can
help me?

Thanks,
Alan
