Thread: Compiling libpq on Windows

Hi,

I’ve been trying to compile my own custom version of Mapserver for Windows this afternoon. Basically none of the binaries linked from the official page are compiled with Fast-CGI support, so I want to compile my own version since we want to use it in a pretty high volume environment. So far I’ve gotten most libraries to compile properly, but I’m having trouble compiling libpq in the PostgreSQL source distribution (version 8.1). Running “nmake /f win32.mak” from the command line gives me the following errors:

I’ve tried searching the list archives, but I haven’t found any good explanations for this. Any help would be appreciated. J

Thanks,
