Re: Using VC++ Express to develop pgAdmin3

Dave,

Thanks. I went back and started over completely. I set my environment up
exactly as it is in the vcproj file, followed all the instructions to the
letter and it compiled and ran. I think the problem I was seeing was
because I had failed to compile some libs as unicode.

Note: The build widgets bat file did not work since vcbuild at the command
prompt could not see the PDK includes and libs. Since VC Express could see
them, I just opened each project and compiled them for Debug and Release.

I had the same problem compiling the libpq.lib file but I used a hack where
I copied the includes and libs from the PDK into VC Express' include and lib
directories. I didn't like doing that so I did it on another computer.

Thanks again for your help,

Jeff
