There's a new version available at http://www.dunslane.net/~andrew/Initdb_In_C.html - I think it takes care of all of Peter's comments. I removed initdb-scripts.h - the smaller scripts were moved into initdb.c with SQL comments turned into C comments, and the large script to set up system views becomes its own file, which is now passed to postgres with single line mode turned off.
I have just realised that I seem to have skipped the bki file version check. I will fix that in the next version. cheers andrew ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bruce Momjian" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Andrew Dunstan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: "Postgresql Hackers" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "pgsql-hackers-win32" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, October 09, 2003 10:07 PM Subject: Re: [pgsql-hackers-win32] [HACKERS] initdb > Andrew Dunstan wrote: > > There will be a new version out there soon.
