I'm trying to get PL/R binaries built on Windows, which I have not been able to do successfully since the switch to Visual Studio from MinGW in PostgreSQL 8.3. For some reason the MinGW PL/R binary does not load in the VS compiled Postgres. Everything works if I also build PostgreSQL with MinGW, but most people want to grab the standard binary release of Postgres and combine it with a precompiled binary PL/R.
So in any case, my questions are: 1) Can Postgres be compiled with VS 2008 yet? 2) If not, does anyone have a link for VS 2005? I haven't been able to locate it on the MS site. 3) Once I get Postgres compiling under VS, is the compilation of contrib libraries automated as part of the build, or is there anything special I would need to do? Thanks, Joe
