Обсуждение: compiling libpq.dll with Borland C++, is it possible?

Hi,
I am trying to compile my own copy of libpq.dll using bcc32.exe, the
docs say it is possible, but I get a error when it tries to compile dirent.c
Has anyone been able to do this?

Oh, that's a shame.  We usually get feedback once per major release from
Borland CC users and adjust things so they work, but then at some later
point things can break and there are no Borland CC users around to do
testing.

Looking at the errors I see a 'DIR' structure being defined:

    DIR        *d;

and the errors are in referencing fields in the structure:

    d->dirname = malloc(strlen(dirname) + 4);

So would you check to see what fields are defined in your DIR structure.

Also, I don't see this file as being changed for a few years so I am
confused why the compile is failing for you and not for previous Borland
CC users.

How hard would it be to set up a buildfarm member that exercises the
Borland compiler?  If it only compiles client code, maybe it's possible
to compile the rest of the stuff with MSVC or mingw.

It's a completely separate environment. Like the standalone "win32.mak"
build system for msvc, it's not included in the buildfarm at all. So
it'd take a lot of work, I think.

//Magnus

think you'll have to contact phillipe kahn for that library

any library that says 'runtime' comes from the OS

anything else you'll have to <re>create from whatever any packages that come with the OS' compiler
