You can check yourself with DEPENDS.EXE, but normally the only 
dependency is the standard MSVCRT.DLL runtime supplied with Windows. 
Possibly newer versions may have one additional DLL dependency for debug 
stack handling.



HTH,

Sadly MSVC builds under Windows are currently unsupported, however if 
you do manage to get any further please do update the wiki with your 
progress. Is there any particular reason that you can't use the MingW 
builds?


ATB,

[postgis-users] Build PostGIS 1.5.2 under Windows

2011-01-18 Thread Ilie, Radu
Hi,

 

We need to build PostGIS 1.5.2 as 32 bit under Windows, using Visual
C++.

 

We tried to follow the instructions from
http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/wiki/DevWikiWinVC_15, but the instructions
from there are not complete. We tried to follow the logical path from
the end of the instructions, but we get thousands of compilation errors.
I noticed at http://www.postgis.org/download/windows/experimental.php
that there are binaries available for distribution under Windows. I
imagine the people building them have a build environment for Windows
already set up. Does anybody know the steps followed by the people that
build the Windows binaries?

 

Are there any updated instructions available for building PostGIS under
Windows? Even if they are cumbersome, we can follow them.

 

Thank you,

Radu Ilie
