hm, I'm still stuck: can't compile extension with mingw compiler.
I use Dev-CPP IDE (4.9.9.2) with MingW 3.7. Has it been tested to compile
extensions under XP with PostgresQL 8.1.2 ?
Al I get are compiler errors:
gcc.exe -c fd.c -o fd.o -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include"
-I"D:/.Work/postgresql/postgresql-8.1.2/src/include"
-I"D:/.Work/postgresql/postgresql-8.1.2/src/include/port/win32"

I was wondering if I can use VC compiler to compile UDF DLL ?
If yes then I am wondering why I am getting linking errors:
Compiling...
fd.c
Linking...
Creating library Debug/fd.lib and object Debug/fd.exp
fd.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
_CurrentMemoryContext Debug/fd.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 1
unresolved externals
It seems that linker is not able to find symbol CurrentMemoryContext.
This variable is declared in palloc.h, but I can't find the
implementation of this variable in libpostgres.a ?
No, you need to use mingw to compile extensions.
