In theory we could now remove the __declspec(dllexport) case for BUILDING_DLL, as it should now be redundant with the fixed .DEF generator. Should. Unfortunately it looks like there's not going to be any getting around having something that can turn into __declspec(dllimport) in the headers for compiling things that link to postgres.exe, though. -- Craig Ringer http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
