With 8.4 and earlier, only MSVC2005 is supported. If you're trying on 9.0, MSVC 2008 should be fine. > In both I get several errors, whether I compile the code as c++ and use an > extern C block, or compile the code as C. They definitely should be C. I wouldn't recommend C++ with extern defines. > I've tried creating new projects from both ides for dlls, as well as trying > to create a project from an external source file. > > I'm using postgres version 8.3.5.

I don't know of a packaged one, but your best bet is probably to download the source and run the "mkvcbuild" script on it. Then look at one of the projects generated for a contrib project - they are the most likely to be close to what you want. > warning C4005: '_WIN32_WINNT' : macro redefinition c:\program > files\postgresql\include\server\pg_config_os.h 7 Are you defining _WIN32_WINNT yourself somewhere? Or including something else before the postgres headers that define it? > error C2894: templates cannot be declared to have 'C' linkage c:\program > files\microsoft visual studio 8\vc\platformsdk\include\wspiapi.h 44 > error C2894: templates cannot be declared to have 'C' linkage c:\program > files\microsoft visual studio 8\vc\platformsdk\include\wspiapi.h 44 > error C2466: cannot allocate an array of constant size 0 c:\program > files\microsoft visual studio 8\vc\include\sys\utime.inl 44 These are all coming out of your SDK files. Can you build your projects if you *don't* include the postgres headers at all? Perhaps you are stuck with one of those platform sdk mismatches we've seen now and then? -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
