Re: Is there a way to build PostgreSQL client libraries with MinGW

Hi,
According to http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_status.pl, only
GCC 3.4.2 and 4.5.0 have successfully build PostgreSQL,and only under
32 bit Windows environment, and I guess from
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2010-12/msg02073.php that
you mean we should only the above two versions of GCC to build
PostgreSQL, but my questions are:
1. I have 64bit GCC 4.5.0 installed before installing the lasted
MinGW, but after that the gcc version became to 3.4.4, which is not
support, how to change the GCC other versions than the one shipped
with MSYS.

2.You have only test 3.4.2 and 4.5.0 for 32 bit environments, do the
64 bit versions of GCC work under 64bit Windows?
