I don't know how to apply this patch. What's the exe that runs this
patch? Will it ask me where the source folder root is when I run it?
As the archives seem to be unreachable at the moment I'm copying text
from the following message which I would otherwise ask you to read:
http://archives.postgresql.org/message-id/4e2813ec.2050...@gmx.de
<CITATION>
In short (for the records): download and install msysgit from
http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/downloads/list
Open git bash and cd into an empty directory like:
cd c:
mkdir pgdev
cd pgdev
Clone the postgresql repository:
git clone git://git.postgresql.org/git/postgresql.git
cd postgresql
Copy the patch (the part with the strange perl-like text of the
message) from
http://archives.postgresql.org/message-id/4e14fd1a.8080...@gmx.de and
save it to a file (like VS2010v9.patch) which you put into the directory
which contains your newly created repository (c:\pgdev).
Apply the Patch:
patch -Ec -p 1 -i ../VS2010v9.patch
(which doesn't seem to apply cleanly anymore which will break things for
you - but I currently have no time to fix it)
Put bison and flex into your path like:
echo "\$ENV{PATH}=\$ENV{PATH} . ';C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin';" >
src/tools/msvc/buildenv.pl
(you might have to adopt the path)
Open a Visual Studio 2010 command prompt and cd into the src/tools/msvc
directory of your repository like:
cd C:\pgdev\postgresql\src\tools\msvc
Start the build:
build.bat
</CITATION>
Please use the commitfest app
(https://commitfest.postgresql.org/action/patch_view?id=523) to find out
about the current state of the patch and to get the latest version.
If you have problems applying the patch when copied from the archives
(v10 -
http://archives.postgresql.org/message-id/4e837b20.4020...@gmx.de),
please drop me a line and I'll send you the latest version off list.
Regards,
Brar
