Обсуждение: Installing PostgreSQL on Win 2003 R2 64-bit
It is a possible?
Yes, if you search the archives there was something on this. Maybe it was around
32-bit, but nonetheless, take a search through.

There is a patch in the queue written by Magnus Hagander right now which allows pg to build from the microsoft C compiler. In theory, this should allow pg to build 64 bit on windows with little or no modifcation. Another take is the Interix/SUA approach. I've had PostgreSQL sources unmodified working on windows as far back as 7.4. I haven't looked at it since the new R2 stuff came out, but if you are feeling adventerous you might want to try and get SUA pgsql working on 64 bit. Either of these approaches could work, but expect to be hacking around wierd problems. There is decent chance pgsql will be officially supported on windows as of 8.2, scheduled for release this summer. The current windows build environment, mingw, does not support 64 bit and doesn't look like it is going to in the near future. merlin

It lays a foundation for future work on 64-bit, but it makes no attempt at it yet. > Either of these approaches could work, but expect to be > hacking around wierd problems.

AFAIK the curernt time-estimate is that it shuld go beta towards the end of the summer, which means a release sometime Q4 if we follow previous patterns. //Magnus

The schedule is for feature freeze of August 1, so right, no _release_ in the summer (assuming northern hemisphere). -- Bruce Momjian http://candle.pha.pa.us EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. +

I was kind of amused by the bit about "officially supported as of 8.2",
too. That doesn't have anything to do with any reality I know of.

I thought freeze was jul 1. which would have put release in late summer (or fall)...oh well. > I was kind of amused by the bit about "officially supported as of 8.2", > too. That doesn't have anything to do with any reality I know of. By that I meant Mangus's msvc patch would be accepted into core sources for 8.2. What I was trying to indicate was that there is a decent chance of being able to build via msvc in 8.2...I expect (hope) that this will happen...sorry to sound presumptious though. Merlin
