Hello,
I get the following error when trying to build PostgreSQL 7.1.3 on
Cygwin:
gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations command.o
common.o hel
p.o input.o stringutils.o mainloop.o copy.o startup.o prompt.o
variables.o large
_obj.o print.o describe.o tab-complete.o -L../../../src/interfaces/libpq
-lpq -L
/usr/local/lib -g -lz -lcrypt -lreadline -lcygipc -o psql
tab-complete.o(.text+0x2a36):tab-complete.c: undefined reference to
`filename_co
mpletion_function'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [psql] Error 1
To get this error, I ran:
./configure
make
I'm using Cygwin version 1.3.5 (complete version of cygwin1.dll is
1.3.5-cygwin-1-3-5-2) with a build date of 2001-11-13 23.16 on Windows
NT with service pack 6. I followed the instructions in doc/FAQ-MSWIN
(cygipc is running as a service, etc). I ran ./configure with no
additional options.
Any clue as to what is going on? I've tried to get PostgreSQL to run on
NT off and on for the past year. My goal is to get it to run, then
package compiled binaries with Cygwin in a standard Windows installation
program like InstallShield with a goal of getting PostgreSQL to compete
in the MS SQL Server marketspace.
Thanks for your help.
