can't make src/tutorial

Hi,
I am using the cygwin postgresql 7.1.2.
Everything seems good but I can't seem to make the src/tutorial.
dllwrap is complaining about undefined references.

I am a newbee to cygwin and postgress but it seems to me that this
would be easy to mess up because dlltool and dllwrap are a bit strange.

I hope this is a real problem and I am not just confused. :-)

You just need to apply the attached patch. Note that this patch is
very similar to the ones that I provided to build the contrib tree
under Cygwin.

Re: [PATCHES] Re: can't make src/tutorial

Does this need to be added to CVS?

Yes, which is why I CC'ed pgsql-patches. Sorry, for not generating the
patch against CVS, but since it is a one-liner...

Thanks,

To be honest, I did not test it on any platform except for Cygwin.
And, on Cygwin I only verified that the build completed without errors.
Nevertheless, if you compare this patch with my contrib one, you will
see that I'm just doing the same old thing.

Additionally, we have the following:

$ fgrep BE_DLLLIBS src/makefiles/*
src/makefiles/Makefile.win:BE_DLLLIBS= -L$(top_builddir)/src/backend -lpostgres

Does the above convince you? If not, then I'm willing to test under
Linux. Unfortunately, due to a job change, it may be a while before I
have access to a Linux machine...

I will try it once I apply the patch.

Re: [PATCHES] Re: can't make src/tutorial

Hi Bruce,

If this patch works such that Cygwin is now operational, and it doesn't
break other platforms, should it be applied to the upcoming-7.1.3 so
that Cygwin is a valid platform for it (7.1.3)?

:-)

Regards and best wishes,

Justin Clift

You can point at plpgsql and the regression tests, both of which contain
the same operation and are certainly well-tested. Or you can point out
that the patch cannot possibly affect any non-Windows platform (since
DLLLIBS is ignored by all other builds), and since src/tutorial is
already reported broken on Windows, there's no possible degradation
if it somehow fails to work.

In short: looks mighty safe to me. Since Bruce seems to be feeling
skittish, I will accept the karmic responsibility of applying it ;-)

No, I am fine applying it now that I know it is safe and he wants it
applied. The original email was vague on that point. :-)

Tom, I see you got it already. Thanks.
