When using something like InitialisePostgres3(), if the approximate location of the database library (.so or .dll) is known, what's the most effective way of finding the exact file? Is there a single routine that does a recursive search?
No.
The reason that I ask is that it appears that the most efficient way of getting libpq.dll for Windows is to install the ODBC drivers, and they go into a directory typically named like C:\Program Files\psql\ODBC\xxxx\bin where xxxx is a version number.
Maybe the installer writes something in the registry, in which case you could try that first. Michael. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
